Atos is acquiring Miner & Kasch, an artificial intelligence (AI) and data science consulting firm based in Elkridge, Maryland, that specializes in developing intelligent data-driven end-to-end solutions.
In 2017, Atos expanded its data engineering capabilities by acquiring zData, a leading provider of Big Data platform solutions. The combined expertise of zData and Miner & Kasch adds 100 AI consultants to Atos' ranks.
By accelerating business processes, the portfolio adds value to customers' businesses, which are increasingly real-time and dependent on data.
"The acquisition of Miner & Kasch strengthens our digital portfolio so we can better serve the evolving needs of our customers"
says Jerome Sandrini, Head of Big Data and Security at Atos in North America.
"Our customers benefit from Atos' data science expertise and deep vertical know-how. They gain access to additional technical capabilities and appropriate digital resources to rapidly develop use cases and deploy and support data science applications in any environment."
