Veteran Industry Analysts at Hypatia Research and Mint Jutras Join Forces

Boston, MA: February 13, 2012—Hypatia Research & Advisory, a leading boutique industry analyst firm specializing in customer and market intelligence research, today announced a strategic alliance with Mint Jutras LLC. Cindy Jutras, founder and president of Mint Jutras, is one the most well-respected authorities on ERP. Both companies share a common approach to research in focusing on how successful companies leverage enabling technologies to improve business performance. The 12 person team at Hypatia Research focuses on the front office technologies with customer intelligence, business intelligence and information management at the core, while ERP is at the center of Mint Jutras research. Enterprise performance management requires both front and back-office research expertise. Through this alliance, the two companies will share operational resources for data collection, analysis and business development.

“Nobody in the industry knows ERP better than Cindy Jutras and when it comes to primary research, she is deadly with data: collecting it, analyzing it and leveraging it to the advantage of both those who use enterprise software and those who sell it,” said Leslie Ament, Hypatia’s vice president, research and client advisory. “Her approach to primary research aligns well with our data-driven culture here at Hypatia”.

Cindy Jutras, president of Mint Jutras adds, “Since 2001, Hypatia Research has delivered market intelligence, benchmarking and guidance in vendor selection. I intend to exploit Hypatia’s operational infrastructure so that I can focus on what I do best—leveraging primary research to the advantage of those who use enterprise software and the vendors who develop it. Leslie’s thought leadership in customer insight and relationship management and her team’s research on enabling software technologies such as business intelligence, customer management and contextual analytics complement my research on ERP and enterprise performance. I can stay focused and still contribute to their efforts. That’s synergy.”
