UST acquires life sciences specialist Endeavor Consulting Group
UST, an Orange County-headquartered IT consultancy, has acquired Endeavor Consulting Group, a Wayne, PA-based consulting firm specializing in life sciences operations.
Founded in 2006, Endeavor focuses on helping pharmaceutical, biopharma, and medical device companies improve their supply chain management and product commercialization.
The firm has expertise across supply chain, product launch, commercialization, quality assurance, e-commerce, packaging, tech transfer, regulatory, PMO, strategy, rapid response, and external manufacturing. Endeavor is an SAP Gold partner and has 75 employees listed on LinkedIn.
UST’s acquisition of Endeavor will expand its life sciences management consulting and SAP offerings.
“Uniting the experience and resources of our two companies opens exciting new possibilities to drive meaningful innovation. For example, integrating Endeavor's portfolio with UST's SAP Services and Business Solutions such as UST Sentry, UST Optum, UST AlphaAI, and UST SmartOps will improve our positioning in the life sciences sector," said Kailash Attal, chief solutions officer, UST.
Jegi Clarity, a New York-based M&A advisory firm, served as financial advisor to Endeavor on the transaction.
"We are excited to join UST, and leveraging the company's resources as well as its innovative range of platforms and solutions will allow us to continue scaling our offerings while also accelerating operations," said Ben David, CEO of Endeavor.
Founded in 1998, UST provides services in IT strategy, implementation, and operations; experience design; proprietary products and platforms; and digital transformation.
The firm has over 30,000 employees in 30+ countries.
UST last year acquired Prodigy Labs, a Toronto-based IT consulting and staffing firm, and MobileComm, a Dallas-based telecom engineering firm.
