New Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Thought Leaders Join Syska Hennessy's Team

NEW YORK, May 31, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Syska Hennessy Group, Inc., a  global consulting, engineering and commissioning firm, is announcing that veteran industry thought leaders Kieran Long and Henry Yiin have joined the company's new Information and Communication Technology (ICT) practice.

Mr. Long and Mr. Yiin will serve as Associate Partners for the new Syska ICT practice area, which was re-launched in April 2012. Both will be responsible for providing technical direction and guidance, as well as hands-on project management for the entire ICT practice. Traditionally, this practice was a blend of individual services, and as those services have converged, Syska has now organized its practices to create a fluid service whereby each component can be managed and served from a single point.

Mr. Long and Mr. Yiin join Syska Hennessy Group from one of the largest asset management firms in the world, where they both helped manage the company's infrastructure systems and technology. Overall, they each bring over three decades of related ICT experience and will operate as key members of this new Syska ICT practice.

Mr. Long and Mr. Yiin will report directly to John Passanante, Vice President of Technology for Syska Hennessy Group, who is heading up the new ICT practice area. Mr. Passanante adds, "The Syska Hennessy Group ICT practice area has a nimble, entrepreneurial approach, which enables us to react quickly to client needs. As we move forward, both Kieran and Henry will play integral roles in our future success as we continue to implement our global business development plan."
