$0000About Seamless
Seamless streamlines ordering, administrative and accounting processes in businesses by enabling goods and services to be procured online. By creating high quality networks of suppliers from fragmented industries and aggregating them in one electronic marketplace, employees are able to make purchases from multiple vendors in an environment that accommodates centralized and efficient control. Consequently, employers receive one, consolidated, electronic billing statement (for all purchases made in this network) that allocates the costs of each transaction to a particular client, department or account and may be easily integrated with even customized accounting systems. In June 2006, SeamlessWeb was acquired by Aramark Corporation. In June 2011, Spectrum Equity Investors made a $50 million minority investment in Seamless and spun it out of Aramark. The company was renamed to Seamless in June 2011 as well. In October 2012, Aramark spun out its stake in Seamless to Goldman Sachs Capital Partners, CCMP Capital Advisors, J.P. Morgan Partners, Thomas H. Lee Partners and Warburg Pincus.
