Verisource Inc., the network engineering and application development technology firm in Rogers, has become the largest Oracle reseller in Arkansas. r

Chris Maddox, Verisource’s CEO, came to Northwest Arkansas from Papa John’s International Inc. where from 1994-97 he was the Lexington, Ky., pizza chain’s director of store systems. Maddox said Papa John’s had a long relationship with Oracle.r

Maddox said before September when Verisource became a licensed Oracle reseller, local corporations wanting the Redwood, Calif., company’s database technology had to do business with reps in Dallas or Atlanta. Now they can drive across town.r

He said a couple Oracle staffers will likely even soon be moving into Verisource’s Pinnacle Point headquarters. Verisource occupies 6,500-SF at the fiber-connected office park and has more than doubled its staff to 25 since the firm’s 2000 inception. That includes recently hired Adam Ritchey, the firm’s new director of communications.r

Verisource serves more than 200 clients and has recently revamped its Web site at www.veri-source.com.r
