“Together we will deliver value for clients that require both custom application development and complex implementation support, as well as for ISVs who can now tap into Bridgenext’s extended portfolio of consulting, technology and data expertise.”
The addition of CodeScience’s unique ability to design, build and deploy bespoke applications that power clients’ businesses, as well as those of their end customers, complements Bridgenext’s strong footprint in the Salesforce ecosystem and its existing product development depth.
With over 15 years as a Salesforce partner, Bridgenext, formerly Wave6, has helped numerous companies grow and evolve with the Salesforce platform, working from design to execution and ongoing development on thousands of distinct projects. Likewise, since its founding in 2008, CodeScience has built more than 400 solutions for Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), having engineered many of the highest grossing applications on the Salesforce AppExchange. CodeScience has also collaborated directly with Salesforce on the development of industry cloud products.
The expanded services suite now positions Bridgenext as a unique provider that can develop, implement and integrate solutions across Salesforce – delivering quicker time to market, simplified technical delivery and faster value realization of client investments.
“We are excited to combine the deep product development expertise of CodeScience with the implementation and integration knowhow of Bridgenext,” said John Castleman, CEO of Bridgenext. “Together we will deliver value for clients that require both custom application development and complex implementation support, as well as for ISVs who can now tap into Bridgenext’s extended portfolio of consulting, technology and data expertise.”
“Bridgenext stands to deliver a new level of excellence to Salesforce customers,” Utell said. “Whereas traditional integrators simply ensure business needs are met, Bridgenext now has the ability to build, support, and, most importantly, scale client solutions with a product-based methodology to ensure companies are realizing the full value of their Salesforce investments.”
BNP Paribas Securities Corp acted as a financial advisor for CodeScience throughout the transaction. The terms of the deal have not been disclosed.
