Houston, TX – April 3, 2025 – EPM Intelligence (EPMI), a premier Oracle Cloud EPM and ERP implementation partner, proudly announces its return as an independently owned company following a successful buyback from Centroid Systems. Spearheaded by founders Nihar and Minie Parikh, this pivotal moment marks a significant homecoming nearly two years after the strategic acquisition aimed at expanding Oracle Cloud capabilities.
Under Parikh’s visionary leadership, EPMI will reignite its mission: empowering finance and operations executives through cutting-edge Oracle Cloud EPM solutions. The relaunch reinforces EPMI’s commitment to deep collaboration with Oracle, heightened innovation, and an unwavering dedication to customer success.
“Back to the future!” stated Nihar Parikh, Founder and CEO of EPMI. “I am beyond excited to reconnect with our incredible community of Oracle users, partners, and customers. Our true north star has always been about driving innovation, personalized client relationships, and a relentless focus on the future of EPM and ERP.”

Minie Parikh, Partner at EPMI, emphasized the company’s unwavering commitment to its people-first philosophy: “Our success has always been driven by the incredible talent behind EPMI. This buyback isn’t just about reclaiming a brand—it’s about reuniting the exceptional team that built our legacy. We’re energized to move forward together, continuing to deliver market excellence and fostering a workplace where top talent thrives.”
Oracle expressed enthusiasm about the renewed partnership, emphasizing the clarity and focused energy EPMI brings back into the ecosystem, Al Marciante VP, Product Management at Oracle said, ” It is exciting to see EPMI’s relaunch as an EPM-focused partner with expanded expertise on delivering AI-driven insights and high-value financial transformation with Oracle Fusion Cloud EPM. EPMI has helped numerous customers on their Cloud EPM journey; revolutionizing their planning, budgeting, consolidation, and reporting processes all while building strong relationships within the Oracle EPM eco-system.
