Buying Back What They Used to Have–another Directory of Lost Companies Tale

October 12, 2005 by Walt Boyes

The recent announcement by Maverick Technologies of the purchase of GE’s system integrator business is really a directory of lost companies tale: Paul Galeski of Maverick originally got GE into the system integrator business by selling them his previous company, Magnum Technologies…and now he has it back, for rather less than GE paid for it originally, so I understand. Nicely done, Paul.
CSIA contacts note that the companion announcement of the GSIA or “Global System Integrator Alliance” (Maverick and an Asian-based partner) is “the highest form of flattery.” GSIA is not a competitor of CSIA, which is a non-profit interest group and standards and benchmarking body. Rather, it is a competitor for integrator consortia like Automation Alliance Group (www.automationalliance.net).
