RICK: THE IMPORTANCE OF DATA FOR CUTTING COSTS

“It's in that process of driving efficiencies into the business where data becomes so important because you cannot just rip and replace or rip and don't replace an application without having control over the information and the impact, up funnel and down funnel, that that information has.”

RICK: WE NEED TO BRING INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO TAKE COST OUT

“When things happen in silos, that tends to be when the inefficiencies come up and the inefficiencies lead to higher costs for the clients. So as a service provider, when we're competing in this space, we compete on experience, capabilities, and we also compete on price.”
