CDT, A Barry-Wehmiller Company, Announces Acquisition of ENSER Corporation’s PTC Line of Business
CDT, a Platinum Value Added Reseller of PTC®, is proud to announce the acquisition of the PTC line of business of ENSER Corporation, a 65-year-old engineering services company. With this acquisition, CDT assumes ENSER’s PTC Value Added Reseller (VAR) business for MCAD/Windchill sales, training and services.
This acquisition allows CDT to more effectively service ENSER’s existing PTC customers, while ENSER continues its focus on the Engineering Services market by providing engineering, staffing and fabrication services. The synergy of the two companies offers to the PTC engineering community a strong, stable relationship built upon both company’s reputations for stellar client service.
“We are very excited about this acquisition,” said TJ Dial, Director-CDT. “They have a proven track record of offering premium engineering services and PTC products to enable clients to meet their product development goals. This acquisition will be a key driver of our growth path to representing PTC across the United States and offering best-fit solutions to our esteemed clients.”
"This acquisition enables ENSER to re-invest in its core engineering and contract staffing divisions," explained Marco Arnone, President, ENSER Corporation. "With more and more of our clients bringing work back to United States, or “re-shoring,” their engineering and design, we look forward to CDT’s capability in building ENSER into one of the premier engineering services companies in the country."
CDT was acquired in February 2012 by Barry-Wehmiller Companies, Inc., a $1.6 billion diversified global supplier of manufacturing technology and services across a broad spectrum of industries. This merger makes CDT the largest company in the PTC Reseller Channel with expanded capabilities to offer world-class engineering and enterprise solutions. By leveraging the vast resources of the Barry-Wehmiller family of companies, CDT is now positioned to offer clients comprehensive solutions to increase productivity, reduce costs, and improve ‘time-to-market.’
“The acquisition reiterates the strong foundation in engineering and manufacturing that Barry-Wehmiller and ENSER share,” explained Jim Webb, VP of PTC Product Group and PLM for Barry-Wehmiller International Resources. “In today’s economy, companies are looking to bring efficiencies in their new product design, manufacturing and production through tight integration of their CAD, ERP and PLM systems. Our synergy with ENSER will further strengthen CDT’s expertise to offer comprehensive, cutting-edge solutions to engineering and manufacturing clients across diverse industry segments.
