SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CIGNEX, the leading Systems Integrator for open source technology based
content management solutions today announced that it had opened an ECM
consulting centre in Edison, New Jersey. CIGNEX has opened this centre
to better meet the needs of its rapidly growing customer base in the
East Coast. This is the company's third
consulting centre, after its world-wide headquarters in Santa Clara CA,
and the 100 person centre in Ahmedabad, India.
"In the last couple of months alone, we have
begun new engagements at Medco, Sesame Street and Hunter College. Given
the response we are getting from this geography, we believe it is
imperative for us not just to have a 'presence'
but a full fledged consulting centre so that we can better serve our
customers," said Mr. Srini Sridhar, the SVP of
Worldwide Consulting at CIGNEX.
The company has roped in Bob Stein, a 20 year veteran of Verizon as
Account Director. In his role as Account Director, Mr. Stein will take
responsibility for all of CIGNEX's East Coast
clients and for the consulting operations in Edison, New Jersey. Prior
to CIGNEX, Bob managed several large IT initiatives in support of
business objectives most recently as Senior Manager of Web Development
in support of all of Verizon Business product sales. Prior to Verizon,
he was with the United States Air Force as a software developer and
communications officer.
"The East Coast with its focus on financial
services and media has been at the forefront of adopting leading edge
open source platforms," said Mr. Navin Nagiah,
CEO of CIGNEX. "Given our growth and
reputation in providing open source ECM solutions, a substantial east
coast presence with both sales and consulting was the logical next step
for the business," he added.
