Fujitsu Consulting has acquired the
business and capabilities of Greenbrier & Russel (G&R), a privately-held business and technology services firm based in Schaumburg, IL. The addition of G&R will extend Fujitsu's capabilities in core skill areas such as Oracle and PeopleSoft enterprise resource planning (ERP) suites, business intelligence, Microsoft and Java technologies, and training while expanding its presence in important markets including Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas, Minneapolis, Wisconsin and Phoenix. G&R co-founders Howard Blietz and Eric Wasowicz will remain with Fujitsu Consulting in senior executive roles, providing continued leadership and direction to customer-facing sales and delivery functions. While some integration activities will begin immediately, the majority of G&R's 425 employees will continue to operate as a business unit within Fujitsu Consulting, with most remaining in their current assignments, providing clients with the assurance of continuity on existing projects. The financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. Fujitsu Consulting's growth strategy is focused on enhancing its
presence and capabilities in key North American markets and segments, in part, through strategic acquisitions. With the announcement of the G&R transaction, Fujitsu Consulting has now completed four acquisitions over a 15-month period, during which time the company also acquired GIM Risk Management of Montreal, QC, Born Information Services of Minneapolis, MN and Cendera Solutions of Dallas, TX.
