NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- OC&C Strategy Consultants, a leading global strategy consulting firm, today announced that Ed Plummer has rejoined the company as a partner in its Private Equity and TMT practice.

Plummer has extensive experience in both B2B information and software, and often works at the intersection of enterprise application software and information services, for clients whose customers span a range of industry verticals. His work includes strategy development and commercial due diligence engagements in areas including fintech, healthcare, compliance, cybersecurity, and DevOps.

He previously led strategy development and commercial due diligence engagements at OC&C for companies and private investors in the information services and software space from 2010 until 2014, when the Boston-based practice was acquired by another firm.

"Ed is a great fit for OC&C because of his rich experience with vertical software, which we will leverage across OC&C's industry specialties, including retail, telecoms and media, industrial products and business services," said David Krucik, Managing Partner of OC&C. "Our business advising on valuation and strategy within funds has grown tremendously and Ed is essential to keeping that growth going."

"It's a great time to go back to my roots at OC&C," said Plummer. "I look forward to building on the firm's market-leading expertise in the software and B2B media sectors, and in particular expanding this capability within the U.S. market. It is an exciting time to be working in the software space, helping our clients develop new and innovative business models, embrace technological advances that allow them and their customers to bring products to market faster, and confront a myriad of compliance and security challenges."

A graduate of the University of Canterbury, who earned his Masters in Engineering at Cornell University, Plummer joins the team at a time of rapid expansion in the US for OC&C supplementing its extensive global operations.
