BEND, Oregon – May 17, 2011 – Alchemy Solutions, a leading provider of innovative legacy mainframe migration solutions, is expanding to accommodate its rapid growth and to better meet the mission-critical mainframe modernization needs of its customers.
Alchemy Solutions offers Neo Suite — an award-winning, world-class migration toolset — to help organizations quickly and easily migrate mainframe applications onto the Microsoft .NET Framework. Combined with the distribution rights for the Fujitsu NetCOBOL compiler, the company is the logical choice for organizations interested in moving off the mainframe. “Companies use Neo Suite to access the next generation of business and consumer technologies so they can remain competitive in an age of rapid-paced technology innovation. Companies also benefit from reduced costs and improved efficiencies,” said Jim Harrer, President of Alchemy Solutions. “Over the past three years, we have seen an increase in sales and interest from companies around the world that demonstrates the strong need for our solutions.”
Ready to help mainframe customers migrate to Microsoft .NET
“In response, we are proactively investing in our future and the future
success of our customers by expanding our personnel, facility, and
expertise. We are moving to new corporate headquarters and aggressively
increasing staff, including adding a professional services division.
This will prepare us for additional growth as more and more companies
take advantage of the inherent strengths of the Microsoft .NET
Framework, particularly as it becomes an industry standard,” said
Harrer.
Bob Ellsworth, director of Microsoft’s Enterprise Platform Modernization (EPM) team, added, “We’re excited to see Alchemy Solutions expanding to meet the skyrocketing demand for mainframe migration. The investments in personnel and creation of a professional services division will give Alchemy Solutions the expertise they need to accommodate requests for their solutions.”
The new 16,000-square-foot corporate headquarters is located on two acres at 1567 SW Chandler in Bend, Oregon. Local and state officials and business leaders will be attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony at 4:15 p.m. July 19, 2011. It is open to the public.
