Mr. Crumlish commented, “I am excited about the global opportunities for CTG and committed to maintaining superior, reliable service to our clients. It is an honor to lead CTG, its strong management team, and dedicated employees. Together, we will build on our 50-year history of success and continue our Company’s legacy of achievement.

“The high quality IT services that CTG provides through our Healthcare, Staffing, European, and Diversified Industrials business units represent a strong framework on which we will build our future success and sustainable growth. CTG’s healthcare and managed IT staffing business maintains strong relationships in the United States and Europe, and I look forward to continuing to serve all of our clients’ extensive IT needs.

“We’ll continue to focus on expanding our revenue and profit contribution by targeting high-volume corporate users of external IT talent, where CTG is a trusted and preferred supplier, and building relationships that will allow CTG to add value with new customers. We remain absolute in our commitment and almost 30-year legacy of delivering comprehensive healthcare solutions to our payer, provider, and life sciences clients in the US and Europe, while also looking for new ways to grow, and continue investing in, this strategic area of our business. In addition to healthcare, under the strong leadership of Filip J. L. Gydé, CTG’s Senior Vice President and General Manager, Europe, we will further advance our efforts to expand CTG’s business in the government and financial services markets across our European geographies.

“With a strong management team, proven offerings targeted to the healthcare and other vertical markets, and a solid IT staffing model that has proven successful over the years, I am confident we will overcome challenges, grow revenue, and improve profitability to create long-term value for our shareholders.”

Mr. Crumlish joined CTG in 1990 and since July 2001 has served as Senior Vice President and General Manager of Strategic Staffing Services (SSS), CTG’s largest business unit, for the past 15 years.
