Our Independence

RTG maintains its independence from all software package, hardware, and outsourcing providers. This is unlike some other consulting firms, which specialize in installing specific brands and skirt open consideration of all appropriate alternatives.

When engaged to evaluate and select solutions with our clients, we do the best work for our clients, not for us. We do not influence our clients' decisions so that we benefit from a specific software, hardware, or outsourcing brand. However, RTG has a number of strategic alliances with firms whose specialties include the implementation of various packages. If appropriate, we may introduce one of those companies after a client selects the optimal solution for its own best interest. It is up to the client.
