Those that focus on providing specialty IT consulting for health care organizations definitely find themselves with a very deep bench of prospects, customers and clients. I often use health care as an example when I advise the consultants with whom I work that are seeking a valuable niche. Definitely technology is integral to health care (it’s everywhere, from the many machines used in hospitals and doctors’ offices to the complex networks used to store important patient information, etc.) and there are definitely many opportunities for IT professionals there. I think particularly those with health care backgrounds in nursing, hospital administration, etc. that decide to branch out into the IT consulting world find themselves with a great opportunity to still work with what they love in a different context. It’s good to see that Dell is taking the opportunity to help build systems with these organizations to make management easier!
