Atlanta-based IT Consulting Firm Extends Exact’s Presence in Southeast Region
ANDOVER, Massachusetts – December 15, 2005 – Exact Software™, a leading provider of solutions that connect the people, processes and knowledge essential to an organization, today announced that the company has completed the acquisition of Inspired Solutions, an Atlanta, Georgia-based IT consulting and professional services firm. As a result of this acquisition, Inspired Solutions will now become a regional operation for Exact Software North America, and continue to service and support their customers in the Southeast.
Serving approximately 200 customers, Inspired Solutions has been an Exact Software business partner since 1996. During the last ten years, the organization has worked closely with Exact to provide mid-market organizations with the business solutions necessary to create new levels of efficiency across the enterprise.

Bain join our management team. P.J. has been a highly respected partner to Exact and I am confident that his continued leadership will sustain Exact’s growth plans in the Southeast region.”
With this acquisition, Exact now maintains regional offices in most major markets across the United States, and two serving the Canadian market. Exact has also added several new business partners in 2005, in an effort to penetrate new market segments and expand into key, strategic geographies. These regional offices, along with more than 80 business partner sites, provide the critical local sales, services and support that end-users require to ensure successful implementations of Exact Software solutions.
“Inspired Solutions has had an outstanding working relationship with Exact Software through the years,” said P.J.
