Northeastern Business Intelligence Mega Merger Creates
Business Intelligence Technology Advisors, Inc.

Boston, MA / Hartford, CT, January 29, 2009 — Today, Business Intelligence Technologies, Inc. and Golden Consulting Group, LLC have announced an agreement to merge all business interests of the rapidly expanding companies. The two companies will be operating as one company— Business Intelligence Technology Advisors, Inc.— on March 1, 2009.

"Based on the expanding needs of our customers and partners, we feel it is extremely important to provide significant organizational capabilities across the complete spectrum of business intelligence needs," said Brian Jordan, CEO of Business Intelligence Technologies, Inc., Massachusetts' top business intelligence (BI) provider. "By merging two leading BI businesses and technology consultancies we can now provide all facets of the BI spectrum: business need assessment, industry-leading software, installation project management and support, data warehouse development, education services and business evolution for clients of all shapes and sizes." Jordan will continue as CEO of the newly merged company.

Both Business Intelligence Technologies (BIT) and Golden Consulting Group (Golden) are Platinum Partners of SAP Business Objects. Golden is also an Authorized Education Partner that provides extensive training services across the United States and at its training center in Bloomfield, CT. In addition, BI Technologies is also a Microsoft Business Intelligence Partner with significant installations throughout the Northeast. As such, both companies have demonstrated success implementing BI solutions for clients of all sizes and industries as they seek to better manage, report and analyze their business data and make smarter business decisions.

From the initial choice of the most appropriate BI solution to successful implementation to end-user training, the merged company will act as a "one-stop shop" for companies seeking BI software and consulting.

"We realize that our success is based on the success of our clients. We are confident that with more mass and expertise, the probability of client success will increase exponentially," said Jordan.

"As we investigated the capabilities of each company over the last several months, it was clear that the skills and capabilities of the companies—each proven BI leaders in their respective marketplaces—were much more complimentary than initially expected," said Ken Dixon, President of Golden, Connecticut's leading BI provider. "Golden does significant training, BIT does much less; BIT has much experience with enterprise accounts, Golden has a significant midmarket presence; and both companies have targeted healthcare, but in different ways."

Today, more than ever organizations seek to capitalize on the value of corporate data to become more agile and competitive. By deploying Business Intelligence capabilities, companies are better able to provide organizational alignment, visibility and confidence in their decision-making process.
