The partnership combines GlobalLogic's award-winning expertise in distributed Agile development with Enthiosys' extensive knowledge of Agile product management and training. Their integrated services will enable both early-stage and established companies to accelerate their product development cycles to bring innovative software products to market more quickly. "Many of our nearly 200 technology clients have sought us out because of our reputation for successfully managing Agile-based software product development across a highly distributed environment," explained Peter Harrison, chief executive officer of GlobalLogic. "Velocity(TM), our platform for this, enables our product engineers to collaborate with our clients across geographic boundaries to meet the important product quality and time-to-market goals our clients have set. Enthiosys helps us better serve these clients by providing strategic counsel on product roadmaps and market strategy, training for Agile product managers, and customer innovation techniques."
