Many established upstream, midstream, and downstream oil and gas companies were early adopters of both ERP and ETRM technology, and their investment in implementation projects was foundational in driving the early growth of the software segment. Software vendors built comprehensive solutions, like RightAngle, that support the full hydrocarbon origination-to-settlement transaction lifecycle and provide for associated accounting, tax, and other niche industry-specific use cases. At the time, these software applications were built on leading technology platforms. Time and technology marched inexorably on and the pressure to support and enhance the core product with new features and functions was naturally in competition with backend modernization for scarce product management, development, and testing resources. For many solution providers, that underlying technology started to show its age and customers clamored for modernization to improve reliability, enhance security, improve performance, and streamline support.
