Deloitte Acquires Oco

May 9, 2011
Acquisition will help Deloitte to expand its portfolio of business analytics solutions

Consulting firm Deloitte has purchased substantially all of the assets of Oco Inc., a provider of enterprise-class software as a service (SaaS) business analytics solutions. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

“More and more businesses are looking for both analysis and real insights gleaned from multiple sources without having to make significant investments in internal infrastructure and support,” says JaneGriffin, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and Deloitte Analytics leader. The acquisition, she says, will enhance Deloitte’s ability to help further an organization’s existing business analytics and data management strategy.

Oco’s business analytics applications provide actionable insights that accelerate business transformation into revenue and profitability, customer behavior, supply chain performance and after-market services performance. The acquisition complements and extends Deloitte’s managed analytics capabilities. Deloitte will now offer an extended suite of hosted analytics applications designed to provide automated data updates, data integration, data warehouse, reporting, dashboards, data visualization, data discovery, and a user interface that can be configured to each client’s distinct needs.
