Harte-Hanks Trillium Software Selects Rural Sourcing for Software Development and
Support
Innovation and Accelerated Release Cycles require Expertise, Collaboration and Rapid
Response for Development Teams.
Atlanta, GA - November 16, 2009
Rural Sourcing, Inc. (RSI) today announced that it has signed an agreement to work
with Trillium Software, a business of Harte-Hanks, Inc. (NYSE:HHS) and a leading
enabler of Total Data Quality solutions, to support Trillium Software’s accelerated
pace of development for its data quality software solutions.
After reviewing several alternatives for its technology support needs, including
offshore and near shore firms, Trillium Software chose Rural Sourcing, Inc. Given
Trillium Software’s need for real-time collaboration, quicker product turnarounds,
and overall cost competitiveness, RSI proved to be the best possible solution. “We
are excited about how Rural Sourcing’s new cost-competitive, on-shore product development
approach is working for us and our data quality product development teams,” said
John Nicoli, managing director at Trillium Software. “There are quite a number of
business advantages to utilizing an on-shore team and we are happy with the response
time, product turnarounds and support we’ve received from Rural Sourcing.”
“We are privileged to work with such an innovative leader in the software industry
who is willing to look holistically at the value proposition of domestic sourcing.
Through this relationship we are able to create new high-tech jobs that would have
otherwise been outsourced to other countries, while at the same time providing Trillium
Software with a solution to providing the best possible support for their customers,”
explained Monty P. Hamilton, CEO of Rural Sourcing, Inc.
