Over 180 Technology M&A Transactions since 1998
50+ Years of Operational Expertise Across Managing Partners
Charlotte, NC; July 2, 2008 — DecisionPoint International, a boutique Investment Bank providing merger and acquisition services to middle-market technology clients, announced today that its client, E2E Consulting (“E2E” or “Company”), a leading Oracle Certified Partner that specializes in providing Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) solutions using Oracle Fusion Middleware Technology, has been acquired by CedarCrestone, Inc. (“CedarCrestone”), an expert in PeopleSoft consulting, hosting and managed services. This transaction reinforces CedarCrestone’s commitment to better serve clients with expanded capabilities in Oracle Fusion technology.
CedarCrestone is now well positioned to partner with their Oracle (NASDAQ: ORCL) applications clients to embrace SOA and include it as an integral and strategic part of their enterprise solution. “CedarCrestone is thrilled to have E2E Consulting and its employees as part of our organization,” said Cal Yonker, President and CEO of CedarCrestone. “We’ve listened to our clients and understand their interest in SOA technology and what it can mean to their businesses. With E2E Consulting as part of our team, we’ll be able to leverage the expertise of their consultancy to deliver valuable solutions to our clients.”
E2E Consulting is on the leading-edge of embracing SOA technology and excels at communicating the value proposition in no-nonsense business language. CedarCrestone looks forward to offering E2E Consulting’s solutions to their current clients to provide an informative and established mechanism for delivering SOA. E2E Consulting puts the technology into perspective using real-life examples that have demonstrated impressive ROI results.
“The passion for technology permeates throughout E2E Consulting. But our success is rooted in our ability to provide solutions to our client’s most difficult problems. The primary benefit of joining the team at CedarCrestone is that we’ll be able to offer a superset of services to our existing client base, while expanding our reach to the larger Oracle ecosystem,” said Larry Fraize, President of E2E Consulting. “Most importantly, the culture of the E2E Consulting organization will meld nicely with CedarCrestone as both organizations have always focused on the success of their clients.”
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
