Pentagon has been implementing the IHS Markit Enterprise Data Management (EDM) solution for over 10 years and our experience dates back to Cadis Software. With a wealth of experience in the Data Management space and Pentagon’s reputation in delivery to the market, Pentagon is delighted to now be able to provide a tailored EDM delivery solution to the Asset Management industry.

In an evolving market, we have seen clients review their current change strategy and work with a number of third parties to help them achieve and deliver on change programmes. Drawing on global expertise whilst ensuring that costs are kept within budget and programmes delivered on time.

Our services are primally focused on providing clients with the hands on domain expertise required, whilst offering an on-site/off-site model for development and testing services. With a flexible engagement model we are able to engage and work with clients in a way that best supports their business and long term strategy. Our teams can also support post implementation requirements and BAU activities.
