Improving Acquires Sophic Group

January 14, 2011 | 2 Minute Read

January 14, 2011 marks another victory for Improving. After finalizing an agreement to acquire The Sophic Group, Inc. in Columbus, Ohio, big changes are on the horizon. Not only is our annual revenue expected to increase by more than 15%, our national reach will also expand into the Midwest United States.

This merger is much more than an expansion of Improving however, it’s a chance for us to launch our “Enterprise Model,”—a business strategy emphasizing the merging of service companies that share similar commitments to the values of excellence, dedication, and involvement. This permits the successful aspects of both companies to remain in place, while they reap the power and benefit of a single overarching brand.

The secret of this model is to truly preserve the local ownership behavior and accountability which has already made these companies successful

Curtis Hite, CEO, Improving

“The secret of this model is to truly preserve the local ownership behavior and accountability which has already made these companies successful,” CEO Curtis Hite shares. “This enables us to effectively leverage the cornerstone of Improving’s success – sincere public relations and overwhelming employee participation. By capitalizing on Sophic’s established professional relationships, we intend to support Columbus’ technology community in ways that don’t exist today.”

Good news for the merger—Sophic and Improving offer similar services, with both focusing on Agile, Microsoft (.Net), and Java application development services. Even better, this union will extend the number of service offerings available to the Columbus office.
