EFI has bought MIS/ERP company Technique. EFI will look to integrate portions of Technique’s capabilities with its Monarch, Pace and Radius Solutions.
“Many customers have benefited from the key technology advantages of the Technique solution, and we intend to continue to develop and support the product for many years into the future. We will also provide Technique customers an integrated workflow with our Fiery digital front ends and inkjet portfolio including Vutek, Jetrion and other wide-format devices,” said “We are excited to have Technique join the EFI family and our expanding portfolio of business automation technologies,” said Marc Olin, general manager of EFI’s Productivity Software business unit.
“The world of print is changing quickly and being part of the EFI family gives our customers instant access to wider solutions from their portfolio, together with the opportunity for more local support,” added Technique CEO, Paul Cooper.
Technique consists of privately held Technique Business Systems Limited, a UK company located in Leeds, UK, and Technique, Inc., a Delaware corporation.
The Technique management team and employees will join EFI as part of the Productivity Software Business Unit. EFI will also be highlighting Technique and its full portfolio at its annual user conference, EFI Connect, which takes place January 15-18, 2013 at Wynn Las Vegas.
