SEATTLE, July 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Corum announces today that their client, Minnesota-based Central Consulting Group (CCG), Deltek’s largest Vision/Vantagepoint partner, has been acquired by Aktion Associates. The acquisition strengthens Aktion’s product offerings and North American customer base in the AEC sector.

“I want to thank the CCG and Aktion teams for making this transaction a reality! Rarely does a process go as smoothly and professionally managed as this one; a testament to the quality of professionals involved,” said Rob Griggs, President of Corum Group, who led the transaction.

“Rob and the team at Corum are truly experts at representing technology and software companies. This is the second engagement in the past twenty-four months using Corum to sell one of our companies,” said Jim Falkanger, Managing Partner at CCG. “Corum exceeded our expectations with each transaction, and we’d highly recommend their services to any technology company entertaining an exit,” added Falkanger.

“Aktion is a fast growing VAR and in the top 20 of the VAR ERP 100 resellers in the U.S. We have completed over 15 self-funded acquisitions over the last 10 years in the Construction, Distribution and Manufacturing industry spaces,” said Aktion CEO Scott Irwin. “The purchase of CCG was the first transaction we have been successful in closing that involved a seller’s agent. Rob Griggs from Corum Group brought the expertise to keep the transaction moving through the sequence of events on a timely manner. We would highly recommend them and would consider them for another future transaction,” he added.
