This strategic move aims to bolster Phenom's workforce intelligence solutions for professional services firms and global capability centers (GCCs). EDGE marks Phenom's sixth key acquisition under its Intelligent Talent Experience platform portfolio.

He emphasized that integrating EDGE's capabilities will enhance Phenom's ability to empower HR teams with intelligence and automation at scale.
Phenom plans to double its workforce over the next two years across its Hyderabad, Vizag, and Bengaluru offices, with further expansion in India. The acquisition brings advanced resource planning capabilities, already tested by professional services organisations and GCCs, enabling Phenom to offer industry-specific talent solutions.
Sharath Hari, Vice President at Everest Group, noted, "Phenom has been on our radar for several years due to their focus on AI and talent intelligence. This acquisition is a logical next step to support their verticalisation strategy."
