CHICAGO--(Business Wire)--
Clerity, a full-service provider of mainframe migration, modernization and
optimization solutions, today announced the addition of three key professionals
to support expanding global operations. The appointments of Santino Spagnoli,
Gerardo Massi, and Marco Ambrosini will further strengthen the delivery of
Clerity`s migration and modernization products and services in Europe. 

"Santino, Gerardo, and Marco will help Clerity continue to build momentum in the
migration and modernization market," said Brandon Edenfield, president, Clerity
Solutions, Inc. "They bring a wealth of operational experience and a solid track
record of success that will help Clerity broaden the depth and scope of our
innovative technology and services." 

Santino Spagnoli joins Clerity to provide direction and management on strategic
service projects, sales initiatives, and tool development. Most recently, he
served as chief technology officer at High Technology World Company S.r.l.
(HTWC), an Italian-based migration technology and services firm, where he led
engineering development and modernization projects. Spagnoli specializes in
mainframe and open systems legacy migration impact analysis, as well as complex
project management and coordination. 

Gerardo Massi will work with Clerity customers and partners, with a focus on the
German market. Massi brings a 30-year track record of success to Clerity and has
worked for companies, including HTWC and Siemens, in a variety of IT consulting,
sales, systems engineering, and management roles. At Siemens, he was a key
player in the development of CICS-compatible transaction processing monitors for
Siemens BS2000 and UNIX platforms. Throughout his career, Massi has led numerous
large-scale migration projects and is well-versed in assessing and addressing
the complete technical and financial issues involved. 

Marco Ambrosini will serve as the focal point for strategic European migration
and modernization opportunities and will support both Clerity-led and
partner-driven engagements. Prior to Clerity, Ambrosini was a pre-sales manager
at BluePhoenix Solutions, focused on rehosting and IMS modernization. Based in
Italy, Ambrosini has extensive experience directing and supporting the entire
sales process. 

"In the past year, we have completed several major migration projects while
expanding our solution portfolio to include new platforms, compilers, tools and
SOA offerings," continued Edenfield. "As Clerity looks to the future, these
experienced professionals will play important roles in the continued growth of
our organization."
