Cprime

Cprime

Cprime was founded in 2005 and led by CEO Zubin Irani. The firm originated as an IT staffing and resourcing provider in California before evolving into a full-service technology and management consultancy. Its growth trajectory has been defined by a series of strategic acquisitions, transforming the business into a scaled platform for enterprise Agile, DevOps, and product management transformation services. The firm deploys capital through a buy-and-build strategy, acquiring specialized consultancies across North America, Europe, and India. Its portfolio has historically included firms like Blueprint Software Systems, a provider of business process management and automation tools, and 321 Gang, an engineering and systems software consultancy. Cprime's platform integrates these entities to offer cross-functional services spanning SAFe implementation, cloud migration, and software development lifecycle management under a single operational umbrella. Its service model is built for direct enterprise engagements rather than fund commitments or traditional venture staging. The geographic footprint extends across the United States, the United Kingdom, and India. Cprime is backed by private equity sponsor Align Capital Partners, which acquired a majority stake in 2021. The firm maintains additional offices in London and Pune. Its team is structured around a global consultancy model, with delivery centers tied to its acquisition geography. In 2021, Align Capital Partners purchased a majority interest in Cprime, initiating a new phase of inorganic growth under institutional ownership. The firm has since acquired companies including Archetype Consulting, a Massachusetts-based data analytics firm. Cprime's structural distinction lies in its private-equity-backed consolidation model within the fragmented Agile consulting market. Unlike boutique advisory firms, Cprime operates as an institutionalized platform — aggregating niche partners under a single brand to create a diversified, scaled services business. This architecture allows it to cross-sell capabilities across its acquired entities while maintaining operational separation for specialized client relationships.
