Earlier this month, however, smaller competitors Office Depot Inc. ODP +3.66% and OfficeMax Inc. OMX -0.36% reported unexpectedly strong third-quarter earnings growth as they benefited from progress in turnaround strategies, something Staples has only recently begun in earnest...More

Organisations are constantly looking for ways to cut costs. When it comes to IT, the means by which they go about this are numerous, from outsourcing development or support, to consolidating servers and reviewing licensing.
