## Source Intelligence, the leader in supply chain compliance and transparency SaaS solutions, bolsters its product lifecycle solutions capabilities

Source Intelligence, the industry-leading SaaS company for supply chain compliance and transparency, announces its[acquisition of QTEC Solutions, Inc.](https://www.newswire.com/news/source-intelligence-acquires-qtec-solutions-inc-21597875?_gl=1*1i0mvpk*_gcl_au*MTA0MTY5NDIzNC4xNzI2MTY0MDg1LjExNDEyMjEwODkuMTczMTAwODU2My4xNzMxMDA4NTYy*_ga*MTAwOTI5MTcwOS4xNzI2MTY0MDg1*_ga_MX6T5V36WQ*MTczMTA4MjczNC4yNi4xLjE3MzEwODM0MjUuNTkuMC4w), a pioneering electronic component lifecycle management company to enhance its portfolio and advance its supply chain transparency capabilities.

QTEC Solutions' flagship product, Q-Star, provides a fully integrated critical information solution that enables manufacturers to predict, view, and manage component lifecycles by anticipating possible degradations and disruptions to their supply continuity. "QTEC's market-leading data accuracy and algorithm-based lifecycle predictions are key differentiators that we know will provide Source Intelligence clients an edge," said Glenn Trout, CEO of Source Intelligence.

*"Working alongside the Source Intelligence team these past few months, I'm humbled by their unwavering commitment to true supply chain transparency,"* said John Diedenhofen, president, QTEC. Diedenhofen will continue on in the new organization and will be integral in the integration of the two companies. *"Glenn's vision and mission are in lockstep with QTEC's sole focus since our 2002 founding: giving companies' critical advantages in data accuracy, reliability, and customer service,"* commented Diedenhofen.
