iGrafx Announces Appointment of Teesee Murray as Chief Executive Officer

TUALATIN & PORTLAND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--iGrafx, a worldwide leader in digital business transformation and process management, announces today the appointment of technology executive Teesee Murray to Chief Executive Officer. With over 30 years of experience, Ms. Murray brings to iGrafx a consistent track record for launching disruptive new technologies to the enterprise cloud market and driving sustainable revenue growth for a variety of software companies. iGrafx solutions are part of the $6.8 trillion digital transformation market growing annually at 15.5 percent.¹

Ms. Murray brings significant go-to-market success to iGrafx. At global ERP company Epicor, she set new sales records, created new partnership ecosystems, and delivered growth in all product lines that she led. At multi-billion-dollar global software company Infor, she led the team’s transition to cloud, driving unprecedented cloud sales while launching new products and designing a new GTM strategy to serve larger customers.

"Teesee is a transformational leader, as evidenced by her proven ability to take complex legacy businesses to a SaaS model,” said Darryl Lewis, Operating Partner at Banneker Partners, and member of the Board of Directors at iGrafx. “Teesee’s experience, vision, and deep market expertise make her the ideal choice to lead iGrafx in creating the next generation of business process management solutions for a larger and more diverse marketplace. As the company announces new offerings and new partners, her demonstrated proficiency at launching products and fostering revenue-generating alliances will be vital for the company’s next phase of growth.”

This year marks the 30th anniversary of iGrafx. Ms. Murray’s appointment comes at a critical time as the company invests in all areas of the business to speed product innovation and delivery. The company delivers business process management (BPM) solutions to the largest companies in the world – particularly those in heavily regulated markets where process management and compliance are critical functions.

“I am humbled to join iGrafx during this exciting phase and look forward to spending time with our steadfast customers and prospective clients to identify ways in which we can enhance iGrafx’s product roadmap and architecture to best serve their needs,” said Murray. “We believe the right process is a competitive advantage and iGrafx has established itself as a clear market leader, as evidenced by its success and market recognition. I plan to build on that success with a strong focus on delivering more value to customers in the markets we currently serve and the industries into which we will expand.”

Ms. Murray replaces Andrew McFarland who successfully completed the transition of the sale of iGrafx from private investment firm Lone Rock Technology Group to private equity firm Banneker Partners earlier this year.
