Deloitte UK joins the Cloud Industry Forum

Professional services firm becomes latest industry member of CIF.

Professional services firm Deloitte has joined the Cloud Industry Forum (CIF), the membership body established to drive education, transparency and accountability in the Cloud industry.
 
Named a global leader in Business Transformation based on strategy and offering by Forrester and ranked #1 globally in Consulting based on revenue by Gartner respectively, Deloitte provides consulting services to help their clients realise the business value from IT.
 
John Winstanley, Technology Partner at Deloitte, commented: “The demand for Cloud advisory services has grown rapidly and we believe it will continue to do so.   Cloud offerings continue to develop at an increasing pace, therefore it is important that our advice can draw on the knowledge of the latest trends and disruptors in this space. As a leading independent source of knowledge on cloud-based solutions in the UK, CIF and its members provide valuable industry insights and advice. This will allow us to further help our clients on the most effective approach to cloud investment. We look forward to drawing on their expertise.”
 
Alex Hilton, CEO of CIF, commented: “The correct knowledge and skills to manage migrations to Cloud is essential for companies of all sizes. However, all too often companies make the move because that’s what they’re competitors are doing and fail to address groundwork in place, issues with compliance, technical ability, and ultimately cost can appear later down the line. Deloitte recognise the importance of a holistic approach to cloud – across people, process and technology - bringing clarity through the standardisation of architectures, orchestration, adoption and integration in Cloud delivery, helping to drive the innovation propelling the sector’s growth. We believe that Deloitte will help bring trust, clarity and security to Cloud supply models by contributing to developing standards and supporting our accreditation process.”
