Cognizant recently announced it acquired Code Zero Consulting, which is a privately-held provider of consulting and implementation services for cloud-based Configure-Price-Quote (CPQ) and billing solutions. And the acquisition is strengthening Cognizant’s cloud solutions portfolio and Salesforce CPQ and billing capabilities. The terms of the deal were undisclosed.
Launched in 2016, Code Zero specializes in helping companies digitally transform by providing strategy, implementation, and migration capabilities to evolve legacy systems to cloud-based CPQ and billing systems. And with contract lifecycle management, these systems make-up Quote-to-Cash (QTC) solutions and enable clients to rapidly configure, price, and quote complex deals, automate customer lifecycles, and accelerate revenue.
“The acquisition of Code Zero enriches our cloud offerings, brings deep domain expertise to our clients and further strengthens our strategic relationship with Salesforce.com,” said Cognizant CEO Brian Humphries. “I’m delighted to welcome Code Zero’s professional team to Cognizant.”
Code Zero is a Salesforce Platinum Partner and its clients include leading global enterprises across a number of industries, including manufacturing and financial services. And Code Zero’s expertise, geographic presence, and client portfolio builds on capabilities Cognizant expanded with its acquisition of ATG in October 2018. The Code Zero team of professionals, based primarily in Atlanta and Charlotte will complement and extend ATG’s footprint.
“We’re thrilled to be joining Cognizant, a global Fortune 200 firm, and ATG, a world-leading QTC consultancy,” added Code Zero co-founder and managing partner Gene Nix. “Cognizant and ATG share our passion for collaborating with clients and helping them succeed in their digital transformation endeavors. Combining our respective expertise in advising on, implementing and managing CPQ and billing business processes and technologies contributes to a true global powerhouse of Salesforce platform expertise.”
