History

Orange and Bronze was founded in July 2005 by Calen Martin Legaspi and Renato "Butch" Landingin. Calen Legaspi says that they "wanted to establish a technology-oriented company that Filipinos can be proud of...we would also want to contribute to global programming standards, create new technologies and be with the same level together with globally respected companies like Google, Microsoft and BoostPro."

The company started as a two-man consulting firm doing software training for local software companies. Their clients eventually hired them as software consultants, before the company ventured into offshore software development projects. This led to partnerships with Google, SpringSource and Pentaho.

As of March 2011, Orange and Bronze's headcount is at 90 employees.

Services

O&B offers software consulting and offshore product development services with a focus on Enterprise Java and Agile software development. This focus is due to co-founder Calen Legaspi's belief that "other competing technologies have not yet been able to reach the maturity or industry acceptance of Java. This is why companies with huge scalability and security requirements like Google, Twitter, Ebay and LinkedIn use Java for much of their core systems".

O&B is also listed as a Google Enterprise Partner in the Philippines. The company's Google Apps implementations include nationwide change management training and deployment of 600,000 licenses for a government institution, and migration from a legacy system for the Department of Finance and for the largest Filipino software firm - Pointwest Technologies.

The company also offers software training classes in the Philippines, with courses that include Java Bootcamp, Spring and Hibernate Framework training, Groovy and Grails training, Apache Struts training, JavaServer Faces training, Enterprise Architecture, Agile with Scrum (development) and XP training, and Android training through its O&B University program.

Incubation

Through the company's technopreneurship program, O&B incubated the Google Maps-based real estate search site, Haybol.ph in 2010, founded by O&B employees Edge Dalmacio and Lorenzo Dee.

O&B also incubated Kandroid, an Android application developed by MilObjects Software, that is "a simple application used to visualize and control personal tasks." This application can be downloaded from Google Play.

In 2012, it incubated Open for Business Online (O4BO), a subscription service that follows the SaaS delivery model, that offers the Liferay, an open source enterprise portal; Openbravo, a web-based ERP; Pentaho, a business intelligence solution; Apache Jackrabbit, a content repository; and SugarCRM, a CRM system.
