Bizzdesign adds Alfabet business following successful closing of MEGA International acquisition, creating a new force in the EA and Strategic Portfolio Management markets

Enschede, Netherlands – Bizzdesign today announced that Alfabet – a recognized leader in Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) – has been added to its business on completion of its acquisition from Software GmbH. It follows the successful acquisition of MEGA International. The combined group, which will operate as ‘Bizzdesign’, has approx. EUR 110 million in revenues, approx. 2,000 customers and over 600 employees, with a truly global presence. 

Reimagining the market 

By pooling expertise and resources, the new business will be positioned to drive further innovation in enterprise transformation and deliver increased value to customers and partners. 
The business will retain its three existing and complementary products (Horizzon, HOPEX, Alfabet), creating the most comprehensive end-to-end transformation offering in the market, covering enterprise architecture management (EAM), strategic portfolio management (SPM), business process management (BPM), and governance risk & compliance (GRC). Bizzdesign is also developing a new cloud-native, AI based enterprise transformation platform.

Expanding the Bizzdesign portfolio with SPM

With the Alfabet acquisition, Bizzdesign expands its footprint to the SPM market. As operating models change through digitalization, interdependencies between business functions and IT increase. Alfabet, a recognized leader in the SPM market, supports businesses, IT strategists and planners to map and analyze these connections.

Combining strengths

Bert van der Zwan, CEO of Bizzdesign, commented: “By combining the capabilities and talents of three businesses, we will be able to scale our innovations across our collective roadmaps and unlock more value, much faster for all of our customers.”

Luca de Risi, COO of the combined group, added: “It's an exciting time for customers of all three businesses as the new group benefits from increased investments in innovation and a unified global presence. We have a long-term plan to unlock these benefits for customers, while ensuring continuity of service.”

Conrad Langhammer, who will continue to lead the Alfabet division of the combined group, said: “The scope of EA is changing by being extended to previously unrelated business functions. Alfabet addresses this through its strategic portfolio management offering. The new Bizzdesign group combines our strengths to serve new IT-savvy business professionals with the technologies they need, while continuing to support the fundamentals of the market.”
