In response to market demand Third Sky to incorporate Lontra's innovative service portfolio solution into their IT service management technology and consulting offerings

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. - April 18, 2007--Lontra, Inc., an innovative provider of IT Service Portfolio Solutions, today announced that Third Sky, a U.S.-based IT Service Management consulting, implementation, and education company has joined Lontra's Global Partner Program. The partnership enables the two companies to provide customers with a more effective service portfolio solution by blending deep ITIL® process and service catalog expertise with innovative service portfolio technology.

Third Sky envisions tremendous value in leveraging Lontra's Service Portfolio Solution as the foundation for Third Sky's Service Catalog Definition Workshop offering. This integrated approach enables customers to immediately deploy an actionable service catalog that fits their environment and drives broad user adoption as soon as the services have been defined, rather than a paper-based static catalog. Additionally, for those customers who request it, Third Sky will perform Lontra Service Portfolio implementation and integration services.

Third Sky has an extensive track record of success in the definition and implementation of IT Service Management solutions in a wide range of industries including high-tech, healthcare, government, education, and financial services. Hundreds of companies have relied on Third Sky to help transform their IT organizations into strategic, business-aligned service providers that deliver the highest levels of service and support while lowering costs.

"In virtually every customer engagement, we see the need to provide an integrated approach that delivers a smooth transition from service definition to enabling technology," said Joshua Sky Barrow, President and CEO of Third Sky. "We chose to work with Lontra because they have a world-class solution, a vision aligned with our own, and they know what it takes to make customers successful."

"Our approach of blending deep domain knowledge and expertise with market-leading technology has always been different from traditional service portfolio and catalog software providers," said Lontra's Founder and CEO, Boris Pevzner. "By partnering with Third Sky, we are delivering a solution that better supports our customers throughout the entire process-from service and process definition through portfolio technology deployment that delivers efficiency, establishes service-based cost transparency and enables demand management."
