First!

Dear friends, family, clients, employees, engineers, and the rest of the world wide web,

I am proud to announce the newest feature of our website… something we should have done a decade ago but are more than happy to release today… our blog.

The goal of our blog is simple, we want everyone to know who we are, what we do, what our culture is like, and what are thoughts are when it comes to strategic IT management. IT has been changing at an exponential pace. At Alliant Technologies, we have with much success predicted these trends ahead of the competition and have been able to be one of the leading firms in our space to be “first to market” on most of the IT innovations that have been changing and revolutionizing the IT industry due to innovations from our strategic partners like Cisco, VMware, and NetApp to name a few.

Also, we think of our blog is good way to exchange ideas, show off the fun and creative people who work here, exchange photos and recipes, and talk about the latest Jonas Brothers gossip =)

We honestly and humbly think that our ideas and innovations in the IT space are too good to keep to ourselves. We also want to provide our readers insight as to what it is like to work here at Alliant. Expect posts written from myself to others from our strategic management team, engineers, and maybe something from our HR director’s pet dog as well. Our employees are involved in various activities that we encourage and sponsor from marathons to community service to graduate school.

We look forward to publishing our ideas, thoughts, and happenings as they occur at Alliant. We want to promote a healthy and intellectual discourse on our website when it comes to IT as well as to the daily things in life that affect us all and we hope that you, the reader, can join us in that discourse as well.

I look forward to everyone’s thoughts and comments and hope you look forward not only to the excellent products and services that Alliant Technologies continuously provides but to our open mind as well.
