Covisint was an American information technology company that was purchased by OpenText, a Canadian company for US$103 million in July, 2017.[1][2] The OpenText Business Network mission is "Integrate, manage and securely exchange data across people, systems and things to gain an information advantage".
Covisint was established in 2000 by a consortium of organizations, including General Motors - Philip Abraham, Ford, and DaimlerChrysler. In February 2004, Compuware Corporation acquired Covisint.[3] Compuware completed a spin-off of Covisint on October 31, 2014. Covisint was fully independent of Compuware until its purchase by OpenText.[4]
Initially focused in the automotive industry, they have expanded into the healthcare, oil and gas, government, and financial services.[citation needed] Covisint has offices in Southfield, San Francisco, Shanghai, Coventry and Frankfurt.
