Asponte Technology

What Asponte Technology does

Asponte Technology is a privately held, veteran-owned U.S. digital solutions and professional services firm founded in 2008 by U.S. Army veteran Craig Yerger and headquartered in Lakewood Ranch, Florida. The company specializes in enterprise digital experience platforms — principally HCL Digital Experience (DX) and Liferay DXP — building custom web portals, corporate intranets, content management solutions, and managed services for Fortune 1000 enterprises and government agencies. Its service portfolio spans custom development, consulting, cloud migration (AWS, Azure, GCP, Red Hat OpenShift), infrastructure architecture, IT health-check assessments, and instructor-led HCL DX training (ADX100-ADX302). Asponte also maintains VOSB and SDVOSB certifications, providing access to government set-aside contracting.

The company's technology core is the HCL/Liferay Digital Experience Platform, supplemented by Kubernetes containerization, Java-based application development, and the proprietary XDT (Extreme Developer Tools) suite — a collection of more than 30 productivity modules (Bootstrap widgets, content analytics bridge, snapshot monitoring, file manager, video manager, forms) that extend HCL DX functionality. Asponte holds the highest tier of partner status with Liferay (Platinum, 2025 North America Partner of the Year), HCL (Platinum), IBM (Gold), and Red Hat (Advanced Certified), and has integrated OpenAI's ChatGPT into Liferay DXP for AI-assisted content generation, SEO optimization, and localization.

Revenue is generated primarily through professional services engagements (custom development, consulting, staff augmentation, platform implementations, migrations), with secondary streams from managed services and subscription support (Smart Support on monthly tiers), fixed-fee training courses, and one-time/perpetual XDT tool licensing. Pricing is largely quote-based. The company employs 11-50 people and serves a diversified roster of enterprise logos including Bank of America, UPS, John Deere, Pepsi, Prudential, MLB, Taco Bell, Yum Brands, Staples, Michaels, OG&E, LIPA, Ortho Clinical Diagnostics, and state agencies such as Massachusetts DOR and New Mexico Department of Health. Distribution is consultative and direct, augmented by co-sell through platform vendor partner channels.
