ZDS was founded in 1994 as an IT Consulting company. In 1998, we became an approved NY State contractor. Our company specializes in streamlining both development costs and time by using our proven Global Fast Track™ (GFT™) services and methodologies. To date we have successfully streamlined fortune 100 & 500 customers development costs anywhere from 25% to 70% and improved Time To Market (TTM) by as much as 25%. If after a free initial consultation with the customer we feel we can not save them at a minimum 25%, we simply walk away from the job. Customers who benefit from our end-to-end capabilities include leading Global and dot.com companies in manufacturing, retail, health care, telecommunications, consumer goods and financial services, as well as global nonprofit organizations and government agencies.
