The people behind Engagement Squared
Who this page is for: buyers and partners evaluating the suite. What it tells you: who builds it, where the method comes from, and the published work behind the record layer underneath every system here.
Alex Glaros
Founder & architect
Alex invented esUDM — the Enterprise Scalable Universal Data Model (patent pending) — the universal record layer every system on this site runs on: one model that holds any organization's people, roles, statuses and history, with nothing re-keyed between "modules."
His contributions to enterprise IT include the Enterprise Focused Development (EFD) methodology, published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Enterprise Architecture as “Case Study: Improving Government Performance Through Enterprise Focused Development.” He founded the Center for Government Interoperability (CFGIO), and he designed and built every system in this suite.

CFGIO also sponsored a co-chair in NIST's Big Data Public Working Group — volunteer analyst Russell Reinsch co-chaired the Standards Roadmap subgroup (NBDIF volumes 7 & 9). nist.gov ↗
Andrew Glaros
Partner
Andrew holds a Master of Science in Civil Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley.
He brings a civil engineer's standard to the firm: infrastructure is designed to stand for decades — the same bar we hold for the systems your organization's records run on.
A father-and-son firm, small on purpose
Engagement Squared is a family firm. The people on this page are the people who answer you — and the company runs its own operations on the very suite it sells (customer #0).
