    In scenarios where functions need to be allowed to shift its focus from managing operational challenges to executing enterprise strategic priorities. PwC can plug in fully managed or flexible PMO models, tracking and reporting enablers to accelerate operationally, realize value at a competitive cost of service, and continue to adjust to, and excel in, a virtual/hybrid remote environment. PwC can assume full operational responsibility for your PMO functions, including the option to rebadge your existing PMO team members as PwC employees upon transition.

    Windstream
    Windstream is a widely available option for VPLS and other connectivity requirements. However, I believe they need to work on providing better notification and support of outages, service, etc. These services are also incredibly expensive, Windstream portrays a worthwhile service to accommodate your check every month, but it falls short. Windstream is available everywhere, but tread carefully when selecting a company that offers similar services.

    Windstream
    Windstream was the only option for what we needed. It was available in Wisconsin, Iowa, New York, and Utah for all of our plants needs. It was also a service that has been used for years so we have not searched elsewhere for an alternative option. Many people have heard of Windstream, which gives it crediblity with IT professionals
