The group's principal activity is to acquire venture backed 'vertical silo' software publishers that have fully developed, customer-validated products. The company also acquires successful regional software companies that can be positioned as complementary 'plug and play' add-ons to existing customer sites. The group is acquiring established distribution in the largely regional, disparate JD Edwards (JDE) reseller channel. JDE, now owned by Oracle, was the leading supplier of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform that automates workflows in the Server Message Block space.
