According to the Office of Management and Budget, three-quarters of IT budgets are going toward the maintenance of legacy IT investments. As a means to adopt more efficient, secure, and modern IT systems and infrastructure, government is turning to an “as-a-service” model. This technique provides a self-sustaining mechanism for Federal agencies to regularly refresh their IT systems based on up-to-date technologies and best practices.

Join this interactive panel to hear how to overcome obstacles to moving to an as-a-service model. You’ll learn how agencies are reaping substantial benefits and how to leverage industry to stay mission ready using the as-a-service model.

Learning Points:

Discuss how as-a-service can speed deployment of modernization and innovation.
Detail the benefits of employing an as-a-service model to deliver IT.
Delineate how industry and government can partner together to allow government to leverage the as-a-service model seamlessly.
