Aliso Viejo-based US Technology Resources LLC has acquired Costa Mesa’s eBuilt Inc., a developer of e-commerce and other software for businesses.
Terms of the deal weren’t disclosed.
EBuilt develops e-commerce software and provides other network services. The company’s Web site lists Cypress-based PacifiCare Health Systems Inc., Ingram Micro Inc. of Santa Ana and Irvine’s Viacore Inc. as customers.
US Technology is a technology service provider that develops custom software for big corporate customers. It also installs and maintains applications.
The company is part of Comcraft Group, a global conglomerate with operations in Asia, Africa and elsewhere.
“EBuilt has core strengths in software and system architecture, which made it an excellent match with US Technology’s growing business offerings,” said Dan Gupta, chief executive of US Technology.
The buy is a new chapter for eBuilt.
Founded in 1999, the company cashed in early as Internet startups and big businesses hired it and other development companies to build Web sites that allow for online transactions.
But as some Internet companies went out of business and Corporate America cut back on technology spending, eBuilt and others were forced to scale back or went out of business altogether.
EBuilt is profitable now, said Sajan Pillai, chief operating officer of US Technology. EBuilt gained five Fortune 500 clients last year, brining its total to 38, he said.
