Nihon Unisys To Collaborate With PE-backed Software maker

Nihon Unisys, Ltd. a listed system integrator, announced that Nihon Unisys will start a business collaboration with Works Application Co., Ltd., an ERP-focused package software developer and maintenance provider. Works Application went private via MBO with Polaris Capital, a midsized buyout shop, and Karita &Co., a Tokyo-based private equity firm this February. Nihon Unisys will sell products of Works to Unisys's customers and vice versa since they are complementary in their customer bases.
