David L. Dunkel, Chairman and CEO, said, “We are pleased with the progress we have made to reaccelerate year-over-year revenue growth rates in each of our Flex businesses in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the fourth quarter of 2016. Our view of the strength of the demand environment within our lines of business, especially in Tech, has not changed. We believe the secular drivers of demand in Tech continue to intensify as companies increasingly look to technology to provide internal operating efficiencies, enhance competitive position and enable sustained market relevance in today's rapidly changing and evolving marketplace. Our focus continues to be on further accelerating our top line growth in an increasingly competitive market and making prudent investments in our business to generate long-term shareholder value.”

Joseph J. Liberatore, President, said, “We believe we are pursuing the mix of business that will lead to the greatest long-term success. We remain very focused on the actions necessary to further accelerate revenue growth, particularly in our Tech Flex business. We are very excited to have gone live in April 2017 with the initial pilot of our new CRM system, which we anticipate to be fully deployed this year. This is a significant component of a multi-year effort to replace and upgrade our technology platforms geared towards better equipping our people to deliver exceptional service to our clients and consultants and building upon other investments to enhance associate productivity.”
