by P.J. Jakovljevic
The new company forged from Lawson and Intentia will have to carefully blend their different corporate cultures, which has traditionally been proud of in-house development spawning a limiting "not invented here" attitude. Market Impact of Lawson-Intentia Merger
by P.J. Jakovljevic
The Lawson and Intentia merger might create a much-needed, strong statement for the market, and provide the mid-market with more options. It may also decrease the negative momentum both companies have experienced in the frenzied and rapidly consolidating enterprise applications market. Intentia Prepares for Merger with Lawson
by P.J. Jakovljevic
Before merging with Lawson, Intentia already had initiated cost-cutting measures on its products, target markets, and sales channels. This, corporate cultural changes, and an infusion of research money help the "new" Intentia become a world class solutions provider to the mid-market. Aligning Java-based Application Strategies
by P.J. Jakovljevic
In announcing their merger plans, Lawson and Intentia will not only have to grapple with the usual issues, but will have to deal with the nuanced differences in their respective Java application endeavors. A New Platform to Battle Software Bloat?

Lawson Software-IPO and Several Acquisitions After
Part Five: Challenges and User Recommendations
by P.J. Jakovljevic & Lou Talarico
Lawson has yet to show that its strategy and technology can "travel abroad," especially to Europe where it needs to put down some deep roots if it is to fulfill its global ambitions. A measly portion of its total revenues comes from sales outside of the US-a proportion that has been static for the past several years. On the other hand, it may point out how successful the company has become in the US in the past decade. What is puzzling is why that success has remained local.
