Olenick & Associates has more than 200 quality consultants and will expand Qualitest’s presence in the UK, U.S, Israel, India, and Romania. Its experience in a variety of sectors will enhance Qualitest’s solutions for industries outside of its primary focus. It partners with Credit Unions to test and integrate core systems with online and mobile banking, consumer loan and mortgage origination, and credit card systems.
“The Olenick team has long admired the work of Qualitest and we are thrilled with the opportunity to partner with them on a global scale,” added Tom Olenick, Olenick & Associates Founder and President. “The term ‘better together’ is really what this is all about and we look forward to integrating our complementary areas of expertise and specialist tooling to serve clients on a broader spectrum.”
- Qualitest acquires Israel’s Comply, a pharma and digital health assurance specialist
- Qualitest acquires QA Infotech, an Indian-based quality assurance company

Earlier this month, Qualitest acquired Israel-based Comply, an Israeli quality assurance specialist in Pharma and Digital Health. In February, it acquired QA Infotech, an Indian-based independent quality assurance company. None of the sums of the acquisitions have been disclosed.
In the last three months, Qualitest has therefore absorbed more than 1,100 employees and added a slew of new clients including Teva, Johnson & Johnson, and Abbvie. Founded in 1997, the company offers an AI-powered engineering and testing solution designed to mitigate business risks in software releases. It does this by deploying engagement models tailored to the testing of technology platforms in a variety of sectors, including healthcare, aerospace, retail, telecom, and more.
