The US operations will be run by Dustin Adkison, with Chris Loechel leading the sales initiatives.

“I have known Dustin now for many years and he is a trustworthy and dedicated professional, with extraordinary Cognos skills, a great passion for Business Analytics solutions with excellent sales smarts, and is in general a great person,” says Carsten Brandt, Managing Director of PMSquare. “I know that he will continue to represent PMSquare well as we expand geographically, but stay focused on supporting our clients’ initiatives both locally and globally.”

PMSquare US is headquartered in Chicago, IL and focuses on helping its clients in the US and abroad develop strategies for business analytics and financial performance management best practices.

“I am excited to be joining with Carsten, Jason, Rana, and the rest of the PMSquare team,” said Adkison. “While partnering with them through BrightStar and BSP Software for the last 4 years, I have seen firsthand their dedication to their clients, their employees, and their partners.”
