- KMS Technology Appoints Jason Wojahn as CEO to Lead the Shift to AI-Native Enterprise Execution
May 11, 2026
Jason Wojahn - New CEO of KMS Technology
ATLANTA, May 11, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KMS Technology, a leading U.S. based Digital Engineering, Data, and AI company, today announced the appointment of Jason Wojahn as Chief Executive Officer.
Jason Wojahn brings 30 years of experience building and scaling global technology services organizations. As co-founder and CEO of Thirdera, he built the world's premier ServiceNow consultancy prior to its 2024 acquisition by Cognizant, where he led AI and enterprise transformation initiatives at global scale. Previously, he led Accenture’s Global ServiceNow business following the acquisition of Cloud Sherpas, where he helped scale one of the industry’s largest enterprise workflow platforms. Earlier in his career, he held leadership roles at IBM Global Services. He serves as an Operating Advisor to Sunstone Partners and sits on the boards of OSF Digital and 66degrees.
A Structural Shift in Enterprise Software
Enterprise software is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Systems are moving from informing decisions to executing work. As AI compresses traditional services models, value is shifting toward firms that can orchestrate workflows, operationalize AI, and deliver measurable outcomes.
"The next generation of enterprise value will be created by companies that can orchestrate workflows, operationalize AI responsibly, and deliver measurable outcomes." said Jason Wojahn, CEO, KMS Technology.
Strategic Priorities Under New Leadership
Backed by Sunstone Partners, KMS Technology will accelerate its focus on:
Orchestrating enterprise workflows across fragmented systems, data, and AI agents Delivering AI-native execution, not just AI-enabled services Shifting from project-based work to outcome-based delivery Expanding Velox, its proprietary platform for orchestrating AI-driven workflows
Initial focus areas include high-friction enterprise workflows including software delivery, revenue operations, and workforce orchestration, where fragmented systems, inconsistent data, and unclear ownership have historically limited performance. By combining engineering, data, and AI orchestration, KMS aims to deliver faster execution, improved decision quality, and measurable business outcomes.
"Jason brings a rare combination of operating discipline and market insight," said Mike Biggee, Partner at Sunstone Partners. "We believe the next generation of services leaders will be defined by their ability to move beyond implementation into execution. KMS is well positioned to lead that shift."
KMS will continue to build on its global engineering footprint and enterprise relationships while evolving its model toward higher-value, more durable revenue streams. This transition reflects a broader market shift from AI-enabled services to AI-native execution, where software increasingly participates directly in work and firms are measured by outcomes, not effort.

- Accenture dips after OpenAI deployment co. launch, but UBS remains positive
May 11, 2026

Shares of several consulting companies fell on Monday after OpenAI (OPENAI [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/OPENAI]) announced it is launching an OpenAI Deployment Company. However, analysts at UBS remained positive for Accenture (ACN [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/ACN]).
Cognizant Technology (CTSH [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/CTSH]) tumbled about 5%, Infosys (INFY [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/INFY]) fell around 4%, and Accenture declined nearly 3%.
"While we acknowledge sector concern, recent M&A activity shows how new entrants NEED incumbent skills + deployment capability to implement," said UBS analysts led by Kevin McVeigh. UBS kept its Buy rating and $320 price target on Accenture's stock.
In connection with the launch, OpenAI is acquiring [https://seekingalpha.com/news/4590501-brookfield-asset-management-to-invest-500m-in-openais-ai-deployment-platform] applied AI consulting and engineering firm Tomoro. The acquisition is expected to bring about 150 experienced forward-deployed engineers and deployment specialists to the platform. Brookfield Asset Management is set to invest $500M in The OpenAI Deployment Company, an AI deployment platform established in partnership with OpenAI and a group of 19 investors.
The analysts noted that OpenAI is adding about 150 engineers with the Tomoro acquisition as opposed to Accenture's over 700,000 employees — 300K to 400K engineers and delivery personnel — suggesting OpenAI does not have the same scale.
"OpenAI — despite its capital backing and strategic intent — likely doesn't offer the same delivery capacity, global footprint, or operational infrastructure required to execute complex multiyear AI programs independently," said McVeigh and his team.
The analysts added that deployment ambition expands AI services' total addressable market, or TAM, faster than it can internalize delivery, leaving legacy system integrators with scale and enterprise execution capabilities positioned to capture incremental AI-driven integration and transformation work.
In addition, the analysts said that Accenture is poised to grow alongside OpenAI as demand outpaces internal deployment capacity. Accenture is the partner of choice for its top 10 partners, across geographies, legacy infrastructure, and regulated environments.
"Accenture has >85k AI + data professionals partners — 30k trained on Claude specifically — is also on pace to more than double bookings with emerging AI + Data partners Anthropic, Databricks, Mistral AI, NVIDIA, OpenAI, Palantir," said McVeigh and his team.

May 11, 2026
We just covered 10 Stocks That Tanked: Why Larry Robbins’ Top Picks Are Struggling in 2026 and Accenture plc (NYSE:ACN) ranks 4th on this list.
Accenture plc (NYSE:ACN) is a new addition to the 13F portfolio of Glenview Capital. Filings for the fourth quarter of 2025 show that the fund owned just under 200,000 shares in the company. Accenture provides strategy and consulting, song, and technology and operation services in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Asia Pacific. It offers systems integration and application management, security, intelligent platform, infrastructure, software engineering, data, AI, cloud, and automation and global delivery services. The company also operates business processes for specific enterprise functions.5 Best Tech Stocks Under $50 to Buy Now
A person with a cell phone who is looking for new stocks
Accenture plc (NYSE:ACN) is a company that is the poster child of the billable hours routine. However, the advent of AI is threatening this model. Analysts have pointed out that if AI can automate 30–50% of routine coding, testing, and documentation work, the massive workforce of the firm might become a liability rather than an asset. The rise of autonomous AI agents in early 2026, systems that execute tasks rather than just assist humans, threatens to destroy the demand for large-scale offshore eams. Analysts fear the revenue per project for the firm will shrink even if their internal margins improve. To combat AI cannibalization, Accenture is shifting toward fixed-price, outcome-based contracts.
While we acknowledge the potential of ACN as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk. If you're looking for an extremely undervalued AI stock that also stands to benefit significantly from Trump-era tariffs and the onshoring trend, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.

- How to Maximize Your Retirement Portfolio with These Top-Ranked Dividend Stocks
May 11, 2026
Here's an eye-opening statistic: older Americans are more afraid of running out of money than of death itself.
And older Americans have legitimate reasons for this worry, even if they have dutifully saved for their golden years. That\s because the traditional ways people manage retirement may no longer provide enough income to meet expenses- and with people generally living longer, the principal retirement savings is exhausted far too early in the retirement period.
The tried - and - true retirement investing approach of yesterday doesn't work today.
For example, 10-year Treasury bonds in the late 1990s offered a yield of around 6.50%, which translated to an income source you could count on. However, today's yield is much lower and probably not a viable return option to fund typical retirements.
The impact of this rate decline is sizable: over 20 years, the difference in yield for a $1 million investment in 10-year Treasuries is more than $1 million.
Today's retirees are getting hit hard by reduced bond yields-and the Social Security picture isn't too rosy either. Right now and for the near future, Social Security benefits are still being paid, but it has been estimated that the Social Security funds will be depleted as soon as 2035.
So what can retirees do? You could dramatically reduce your expenses, and go out on a limb hoping your Social Security benefits don't diminish. On the other hand, you could opt for an alternative investment that gives a steady, higher-rate income stream to supplant lessening bond yields.
Invest in Dividend Stocks
As a replacement for low yielding Treasury bonds (and other bond options), we believe dividend-paying stocks from high quality companies offer low risk and stable, predictable income investors in retirement seek.
Look for stocks that have paid steady, increasing dividends for years (or decades), and have not cut their dividends even during recessions.
One way to identify suitable candidates is to look for stocks with an average dividend yield of 3%, and positive average annual dividend growth. Many stocks increase dividends over time, helping to offset the effects of inflation.
Here are three dividend-paying stocks retirees should consider for their nest egg portfolio.
Accenture (ACN) is currently shelling out a dividend of $1.63 per share, with a dividend yield of 3.61%. This compares to the Computers - IT Services industry's yield of 0% and the S&P 500's yield of 1.41%. The company's annualized dividend growth in the past year was 14.73%. Check Accenture dividend history here>>>
Story Continues
Grupo Aval Acciones y Valores S.A. (AVAL) is paying out a dividend of $0.01 per share at the moment, with a dividend yield of 3.02% compared to the Financial - Investment Management industry's yield of 1.68% and the S&P 500's yield. The annualized dividend growth of the company was 12.92% over the past year. Check Grupo Aval Acciones y Valores S.A. dividend history here>>>
Currently paying a dividend of $0.49 per share, BP (BP) has a dividend yield of 4.56%. This is compared to the Oil and Gas - Integrated - International industry's yield of 0% and the S&P 500's current yield. Annualized dividend growth for the company in the past year was 10.16%. Check BP dividend history here>>>
But aren't stocks generally more risky than bonds?
It is true that stocks, as an asset class, carry more risk than bonds, but high-quality dividend stocks not only have the ability to produce income growth over time but more importantly, can also reduce your overall portfolio volatility relative to the broader stock market.
A silver lining to owning dividend stocks for your retirement portfolio is that many companies, especially blue chip stocks, increase their dividends over time, helping offset the effects of inflation on your potential retirement income.
Thinking about dividend-focused mutual funds or ETFs? Watch out for fees.
If you prefer investing in funds or ETFs compared to individual stocks, you can still pursue a dividend income strategy. However, it's important to know the fees charged by each fund or ETF, which can ultimately reduce your dividend income, working against your strategy. Do your homework and make sure you know the fees charged by any fund before you invest.
Bottom Line
Seeking steady, consistent income through dividends can be a smart option for financial security in retirement, whether you invest in mutual funds, ETFs, or in dividend-paying stocks.

Additionally, CrowdStrike also announced Falcon OverWatch for Defender, which extends industry-leading managed threat hunting to Microsoft endpoint customers.

The AI revolution represents a new, generational growth opportunity for CrowdStrike, and we are confident in our ability to deliver durable, profitable growth as we scale to our goal of $20 billion ending ARR in FY36.”
