About Us

Accelare was founded in 2001 in Boston, MA. Our name is derived from the Latin word accelerāre to go faster; to cause faster or greater activity, development, progress, advancement. At Accelare we are all about speed to results. Accelare consulting services deploy Agile and Scrum techniques in all of our methods and Accelare staff includes: CPAs, CIPM, Blue Ocean Strategy, TOGAF Certified, Certified Scrum Masters and Master Black Belts.

Accelare's founders were key contributors to the Business Process Management Movement and worked on the best-selling books of Michael Hammer and James Champy including: Reengineering the Corporation and X-Engineering the Corporation. Recently, Accelare's work was featured in the June 2009 Harvard Business Review article, "The Next Revolution in Productivity" co-authored with Microsoft and Accelare CEO, Jack Calhoun.

In 2008, Accelare acquired the Capable Company Group, whose leaders authored The Capable Company and Measure Up!
