Edward R. Garibian, CEO
Ed founded The eRPortal Software Group in 2000 on a simple idea
- to take software serving industries not traditionally well-served
by information technology - remodel it and refine it with the
most advanced, flexible, and reliable technology available.
Since then, eRPortal Software solutions for Asset Management
and Materials Management have grown and developed into formidable
competitors among the industry's largest players. The eRPortal
Software Group is a unit of Applied Software Technologies, a
premium information technology services company which Ed founded
in 1989.
Ed has been an active West Springfield Rotary Club member since
1998 and served as Rotary President in 2001-02. He serves on
the Board of the Children's Study Home, a community support
services organization founded in 1865. Ed is also an active
member of the Pioneer Valley Entrepreneur's Group and of SBANE,
the Small Business Association of New England.
Prior to founding Applied Software Technologies and The eRPortal
Software Group, Ed held product-marketing positions at Analog
Devices in Norwood, Massachusetts in the area of high-speed
microprocessors. He also held engineering positions at Texas
Instruments in Dallas and at Data General in Westboro, Massachusetts.
Ed holds a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University
