Rain Partners is
a strategy & software firm redefining
IT leadership
We empower IT leaders to transform IT performance, achieve higher value from IT, and establish IT as
a strategic partner.
Our Mission
Our Vision
Leading a modern IT organization requires both Art and Science
Our Approach
We believe IT’s relationship with stakeholders is at the center of IT’s success: our work centers on improving stakeholders’ trust, value and respect for IT. This is the art.
“IT’s real value isn’t measured by uptime, budget, or project completion alone — it’s measured by how IT is experienced, trusted, and recognized by those it serves.”
Data and facts can result in sustainable change: our tools and methods focus IT on quantifiable results, not guesses. This is the science.
“To move IT from Cost Center to Strategic Partner, a CIO must have command of the metrics that matter”
