Gloo to Acquire Enterprisemarketdesk (EMD), a Workday Services Partner Built for Nonprofit and Mid-Market Organizations
Acquisition expands Gloo's enterprise technology capabilities and strengthens Gloo 360 as the IT infrastructure management service of choice for the faith and flourishing ecosystem
Gloo (NASDAQ:GLOO), a leading technology platform for the faith and flourishing ecosystem, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire EMD, an established Workday Services Partner that provides consulting, implementation and support services to nonprofit, small and mid-market organizations. The acquisition will add a broad set of AI-enabled Workday services and expertise to the Gloo platform, further strengthening the company's portfolio of enterprise solutions for the faith and flourishing ecosystem.
"Workday is widely used across the ecosystem and by many Gloo customers. Our acquisition of EMD brings AI-enabled Workday implementation, operations and support into Gloo's suite of services, deepening our pipeline and unlocking meaningful cross-sell opportunities with Gloo 360," said Scott Beck, CEO at Gloo. "This is a great example of how we are establishing Gloo as the partner of choice for mission-aligned organizations. We take over the work of managing and modernizing their technology through applied AI and forward deployed engineering, creating better outcomes at lower costs for our customers along with sustained value for our shareholders."
EMD offers a full suite of services including Workday deployments, application management services and staff augmentation. The company serves a mix of direct clients and partner systems integrator relationships, with a significant portion of the company's business coming from faith-aligned organizations. Many Gloo enterprise customers already look to Workday as their system of choice, creating a natural alignment between the two organizations. Workday engagements often expand into broader modernization or digital transformation initiatives, where Gloo 360 is well positioned to provide ongoing support.
"We built EMD around the idea that this part of the Workday market needed a different model — one focused on predictable delivery, the right team, and long-term partnership," said Alan Corbeil, Managing Partner of EMD. "Becoming part of Gloo allows us to scale that model while giving our customers access to a broader platform and continued investment in AI-enabled capabilities."
The acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter.
