Data Capture Solutions: Bridgelogix Acquires Real Time Technologies, Increasing Its Data Capture Offerings For Infor Customers
Bridgelogix Solutions LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bridgelogix Corporation, has announced that, effective July 1st 2006, it has acquired the assets of Real Time Technologies (RTT) a leading provider of automated data capture solutions for the BPCS and ERPLX product lines now owned, developed and supported by Infor Global Solutions, formerly owned by SSA Global.
"We see this acquisition as wholly complementary to our existing Baan and ERPLN focus, allowing Bridgelogix to extend our solutions footprint within the newly expanded Infor portfolio" said Koty Krishna, Founder and CEO of Bridgelogix, adding that "over the next few weeks we will be actively sharing our ideas and plans for the future with the many new customers that this acquisition brings to Bridgelogix."
As a premier Solutions Partner with SSA Global, Bridgelogix provides data collection solutions for SSA Baan and SSA ERPLN users that spanned Inventory Management and Shop Floor Control areas alongside its latest, integrated Time & Attendance solution. With over 100 customers, 350 sites and thousands of end users across the world, these solutions are used in every manufacturing sector that the Baan and ERPLN solutions have been implemented and gave Bridgelogix the largest base of data collection users in that community.
Koty Krishna added that "with the acquisition of RTT, the Bridgelogix customer install base is now doubled in size and gives Bridgelogix the perfect platform on which to continue its growth strategy. We understand the current market dynamics and the appeal to customers who want to deal with partners who have substance and sustainability and who offer a broad and compelling set of solutions that span not just the software, but also the hardware, implementation and ongoing support, and who have a vision that embraces RFID and innovative middleware technology to truly allow the simplification and automation of key business processes in their ERP applications. The recent acquisition of SSA by INFOR supports this concept and will allow Bridgelogix to expand the current solutions logically across a larger set of offerings."
Rick Harris has been appointed as the General Manager of Bridgelogix Solutions which will report into the Bridgelogix USA Corporate Headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The new division will continue to be located in Exton, Pennsylvania and will include the core group of people who've consistently provided the dedicated support and innovation that made the acquisition such an attractive part of the Bridgelogix growth strategy, which includes Anthony J. Etzel the founder of the RT/CIM solution and principle partner of RTT as well as the RTT EMEA operation based in the UK. Harris stated that "although the acquisition will be transparent to our end users, our former RTT customers now have the added benefits of working with a bigger stronger company that has consistently been 100% focused on developing and delivering innovative data collection solutions that help them achieve operational excellence.
Krishna summed up, "Bridgelogix is staying true to its roots, true to its strengths and true to our customers with the RTT acquisition. The new product additions to our company still revolve around data capture and maximizing the benefits of enterprise applications. The bottom line is that we want Bridgelogix to be synonymous with reducing operational costs and automating shop floor, warehousing and distribution operations while making our customers' jobs easier and more profitable. To help that goal, we continue to add tools to our solutions portfolio."
