EMC Ramps Up Professional Services

May 12th, 2006: Moving to boost its services to Microsoft focussed customers, EMC has acquired Interlink, a north-American based services firm that specialises in application development, IT infrastructure, enterprise integration, enterprise content management and customer relationship management in Microsoft environments.

The purchase is not expected to have any impact on EMC revenue’s for 2006, however the company says that the addition of Interlink to its ranks “strengthens and expands EMC's growing Microsoft practice” and compliments its recent purchase of professional services firm Internosis.

EMC says that Interlink helps businesses establish “operationally-efficient infrastructures, automate business processes, collaborate more effectively and integrate enterprise applications.”

“The acquisition of Interlink represents another key milestone in our professional services evolution as we significantly expand our capabilities to build and deliver tightly integrated solutions for our customers' application infrastructures” says Derrell James, Senior Vice President, EMC Technology Solutions. “With Interlink joining forces with our own well-established and growing professional services and solutions business, we will help customers realise the benefits of an information lifecycle management strategy more rapidly and cost effectively.”
