The Story
Alsbridge Network Services Group was created in 2010 when Alsbridge acquired TAG, a leading network consulting company that was founded in 2001 with one primary purpose: help corporations achieve greater IT and telecom value. Prior to the acquisition Alsbridge provided companies with sourcing advisory and benchmarking services for IT infrastructure services, application support and development and business processes. Alsbridge's Network Services Group compliments its sourcing practice and continues to grow its services specializing in the procurement of telecommunications services including voice, data, wireless, internet, local, and international services for national and multinational companies.
Dieter Thompson founded TAG in his home office in late 2001 with one customer and a vision to bridge the gap in service delivery and market pricing between corporate clients and telecom vendors. The vision of one man and the experience and ideas of industry veterans shaped one of the largest and fastest growing telecom consulting companies in the U.S. Through the years TAG added industry veterans and executives with decades of experience from across the carrier community. The company's extensive knowledge gained from both the voice and data fields, coupled with its end-use perspective, provides its clients with a complete telecommunications resource. In July 2007, TAG was recognized as one of the 5,000 fastest growing private companies by Inc. Magazine, and its executives have been quoted and profiled in industry trade as well as business publications.
