The small, but very talented research and consulting team from Delphi will help us as we assist our clients in managing the lifecycle of their technology investments, said James Champy, vice president and chairman of consulting for Perot Systems.

A statement from the company said: The transaction reflects the growing expectation among large buyers of IT services that service partners provide a single point of accountability for strategy, service design, development and deployment as well as ongoing objective guidance.

Ross Perot Jr, president and CEO of the company said: Technology investments represent a significant outlay, and organizations expect technical solutions that are supportive of their overall business strategy. The Delphi consultants are leading experts in understanding the implications of technology change on business. This is a great opportunity to be able to work with a distinguished team of world-class professionals.

Details of the transaction were not released, but it is not expected to have a material near-term effect on Perot’s financial results.
