Syntax Systems said the combined entities will create one of the leading North American technology services firms offering best in class cloud managed services, application managed services and consulting services for Enterprise Resource Planning (‘ERP’) applications employed by mid and large enterprises.
The new combined entity will have employees in offices across the USA, Canada, India and Argentina. Syntax is headquartered in Montreal, Quebec and Core Services in Somerset, New Jersey.
The acquisition was funded with new equity provided by NOVACAP with participation from Private Advisors and Northleaf Capital, and members of the Syntax and Core Services management teams.
