We're proud to announce a strategic partnership with CapZone Impact Investments LLC to build a national network of next-gen digital solutions for mission critical facilities through the power of the ServiceNow AI Platform. Starting with the Mobile Naval Yard in Alabama, ServiceNow and CapZone will transform aging shipbuilding infrastructure, helping to deliver a new digital backbone for U.S. naval operations that includes smarter supply chains, more efficient production, and modern systems built for the mission at hand. But this is about more than operational efficiency. It’s about bringing innovation to the systems our country depends on most. It's a powerful example of what’s possible when technology and mission come together. We're not just imagining a better future... we're building it! Read more: https://lnkd.in/eK4cr2yP

GCCs need SI partners that are small enough to care yet large enough to transform. This post isn’t about putting large SIs or Tier 1 partners on the spot. Don’t get me wrong. They have their strengths. They bring scale, global reach, and deep enterprise experience but when it comes to agility, customization, and high-touch engagement, mid-size system integrators (SIs) are stepping up in a big way. More and more GCCs are rethinking their partnerships and realizing that bigger doesn’t always mean better. Here’s why mid-size SIs are gaining traction: 1️⃣ You’re a Priority, Not Just Another Account ↳ For large SIs, you’re one of hundreds. For a mid-size SI, you’re a big deal which means CXO-level focus, faster decisions, and genuine commitment. 2️⃣ Speed Matters, Mid-Size SIs Move Faster = Faster Decisions ↳ No bureaucracy, no layers of approval. Mid-size SIs adapt, decide, and execute faster than larger vendors ever could. 3️⃣ Stronger Relationships & High-Touch Engagement ↳ No endless escalation loops. No getting lost in the system. With mid-size SIs, leaders stay directly involved, ensuring proactive problem-solving. Easily accessible, and adapt to your needs in real time. 4️⃣ Tailored Solutions, Not One-Size-Fits-All ↳ Large vendors push pre-built, standardized solutions that may not fit your needs. Mid-size SIs customize and co-create solutions built around your GCC. 5️⃣ Deep Niche Expertise, Not Just Broad Offerings ↳ AI, Cloud, Automation, ERP, Cybersecurity—Mid-size SIs specialize in key technologies, bringing sharper focus & deeper expertise. 6️⃣ Cost-Effective Without Compromising Quality ↳ Lean teams, lower overheads, high-quality expertise at a more competitive price. 7️⃣ Lower Attrition = More Stability ↳ Large vendors have high attrition rates causing knowledge loss. Mid-size SIs retain talent better, ensuring continuity & long-term success. 8️⃣ Faster Execution = Quicker Time-to-Value ↳ Mid-size SIs move from strategy to execution without delays, so your GCC gets results sooner. 9️⃣ Co-Creation, Not Just Service Delivery ↳ Your GCC doesn’t need just a vendor—it needs partners who innovate, co-develop, and scale with you. 🔟 More Transparency, Less Complexity ↳ Fewer management layers, better visibility, direct communication, and smoother governance. 💡 What do you think? Have you worked with both large and mid-size SIs?
