Everest and Bernstein analysts to address buyer-driven relationship consolidation likely to affect ADM businesses at June 5 Webinar 

DALLAS, May 25, 2007 - The Application, Development and Maintenance (ADM) outsourcing market is moving into an incrementally more mature phase. Its growth dynamics are undergoing a significant change as large buyers re-evaluate their strategies – often deciding to consolidate their existing relationships into a smaller portfolio.

This new growth paradigm creates significant opportunities for Tier 1 suppliers (both traditional and offshore) to build on their existing relationships and position themselves as true partners according to the Everest Research Institute and Bernstein Research, whose Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO) analysts will discuss ITO marke  trends and directions in a one-hour Webinar on June 5th at 8:30 a.m. CDT.

Ross Tisnovsky, Vice President of ITO Research at Everest Research Institute, and Senior Analyst Rod Bourgeois of Bernstein Research will combine and contrast their insights on the ITO market. Topics they will discuss include:

• The latest trends in the global ITO market as observed by two industry analysts
• How changes in the ADM market will likely reshape the way ADM outsourcing looks today
• How changes will impact ADM buyers and suppliers and what new opportunities may lie ahead for each segment

The Webinar will be comprised of a 45-minute presentation followed by 15 minutes of questions and answers for participants. This Webinar is part of the ongoing collaboration of Bernstein and Everest over the past five years to conduct joint research and share their collective findings with industry participants.
The Webinar will take place on June 5, 2007 at 8:30 a.m. CDT (USA); 2:30 p.m. (UK); or 8 p.m. (IST).
