CTG Acquires Eleviant Tech To Accelerate Digital Business
Summary
We’re doing it thoughtfully, helping our customers find alternatives,’ says Tom Niehaus, CTG’s executive vice president for the Americas and for its Indian operations. The acquisition of Eleviant, for which Computer Task Group is paying $18.6 million plus an additional $200,000 in stock, is part of a long-term transition to providing a wide range of digital IT services, said Tom Niehaus, executive vice president for the Americas and for the Indian operations of the company, which is better known by its CTG acronym. “It also provides a single point of communications and status updates for businesses with a lot of merger and acquisition activity and who want to get everyone working on a central point.” Other Eleviant applications include a virtual bot platform for chats and an automation platform, Niehaus said. CTG has made three acquisitions, all in Europe, in the last five years as part of its transition to a focus on IT services, Niehaus said. The most recent was France-based StarDust, which specialized in automated testing and quality assurance for digital services.
