Bridging the Gulf between Management and IT

This disconnect and lack of understanding between the management and IT casts shadow on IT projects that are already reeling under cost challenges. Having served as consultant and CIO for several years, Alejandro Sarmiento, the CEO of Topologe runs a team that brings management and IT teams on the same page in making technology decisions. By taking a proactive approach in mitigating threats in a constantly changing IT environment, Topologe today catering to several federal organizations by providing IT consultants and crafting cost-effective solutions tailored for clients’ individual IT needs. “We meet our clients’ expectations through a risk mitigated phased approach with careful consideration of our clients’ requirements,” says Alejandro Sarmiento, CEO.
