Sausage
Software has announced its intention to acquire Perth-based Web
development company Method+Madness.
The acquisition which is subject to formal contract documentation, will
give Sausage a national multimedia division and leverage to capture the
corporate Web development market.
“Method+Madness delivers Sausage a team of
highly experienced and commercially focussed Web developers,” said Wayne Bos, CEO of Sausage.
Stephen Langsford, director of Method+Madness, added that “joining Sausage will
mean that we now have access to the significant financial and intellectual
resources of the group which will translate to better services for our
client.”
“It will also provide us with an infrastructure to grow our national and
international client base and open new possibilities for our Perth-based
staff,” Langsford said.
With a team of 40, Method+Madness has such clients as Mercantile Mutual,
West Australian Newspapers, Bank West, Hartley Ponyton and the West
Australian government.
Forty percent of Sausage is owned by national carrier Telstra, and a five percent stake is also held by Intel.
