The e-business services provider wants to bring together its corporate headquarters and satellite operations in Lakeway and North Austin, as well as an office in Houston. Sam DiPaola, vice president of investor relations, tells GlobeSt.com that the move is intended to increase the company's efficiency. The space, which will eventually hold up to 70 people, is intended to accommodate employees from information technology, accounting, payroll and human resource departments. "Consolidation helps us be more operationally effective," DiPaola says. "We had temporary space out in Lakeway and an office on Research Boulevard. Now all that space will be within the same building."

EpicEdge is leasing about 3,000 sf of office space on Research Boulevard and 10 executive office spaces in Lakeway. The company currently is in negotiations for a spot at 5508 Highway 290 West near Southwest Parkway. It is eyeing all or part of the third floor.

EpicEdge is a Sun service provider and a strategic partner with iPlanet E-Commerce solutions. The company also has offices in New York, Nashville, Seattle and St. Louis.
