Progressive is associated with some of the most prestigious clients such as NSW Health, Super Retail Group and the Department of Education. The company has a strong presence in the UK and with its plans to expand its geographic footprint, this acquisition is nothing short of a strategic investment. According to Forrester Research, the global procurement software industry will grow 17% to be worth up to $14 billion by the end of 2022. With more and more companies looking to optimize their costs, there’s no better time than now to make this acquisition. Prior to Portt, Advanced acquired CloudTrade, a leader in document automation.

Speaking to Portt about the acquisition, Gordon Wilson, CEO of Advanced said, “We are very pleased to welcome Portt to the growing Advanced family – the integration of their technology will enable our mutual customers to achieve greater business efficiencies and… Achieve productivity and proactively drive business improvement and growth.” The company explains it as an international expansion strategy and aims to build a full ERP encompassing finance, spending and human resource management in the UK, Australia and New Zealand.

The entire Portt team is excited to work with Advanced and together they can deliver real results and value to the system.

“The combination of Advanced’s strong UK presence with a desire to grow in ANZ and our solid presence in ANZ with a desire to expand into the UK makes it a win-win,” said Andre Pinkowski, Co -CEO and co-founder of Portt. “This acquisition will reinforce what Chris and I have already worked hard for and we are confident that our people will seize the great opportunity that presents itself as part of a larger organization that shares our values,” added Andre. The company always had plans to expand outside of ANZ. This acquisition could not have come at a much better time.
