In the $2 trillion government procurement sector, Onvia's B2G Intelligence System equips companies from global enterprises to small businesses and contractors to grow their public sector business and helps government agencies gain procurement efficiency. Onvia applies advanced data science, ontology and machine tagging search technologies to transform unstructured government contracting data into meaningful commerce intelligence, actual lead generation and CRM workflows for buyers and sellers in the B2G marketplace.

Mann brings Onvia extensive and relevant corporate transformation and transaction experience at the board and executive levels. He had been CEO of Covario, a venture-backed search marketing software and services company with globally recognized enterprise clients. There, he grew the gross billings, patented several analytics innovations, and completed three software company acquisitions; the company was later acquired by Dentsu Aegis. Mann currently serves on the Board of Ooma, a publicly traded cloud-based telephony company serving consumers as well as small and medium businesses. Mann joins Onvia from Outerwall, recently taken private by Apollo Equity for $1.6 billion, where he led the turnaround and growth in profitability for the Gazelle e-commerce group, a marketplace for buying and selling recycled electronics. Previously, he was CMO of Nintex, the leader in digital workflow automation, where he led the acquisition integration of Drawloop, the premier document generation solution in the Salesforce.com ecosystem.

"I'm very excited to join Onvia at this time," said Mann. "It's an honor to join such a great team, serving the loyal customer base who achieve real value from Onvia's B2G commerce intelligence. Onvia is already a leader in the B2G marketplace with the most robust data coverage, advanced IP, insightful market analysis, strong government agency partnerships and broad network of government suppliers as customers."

"With the improved domestic economy and the incoming administration's focus on accelerated infrastructure spending, Onvia is truly poised to expand its growth and leadership at the core of this B2G market," commented D. Van Skilling, Chairman of Onvia's Board of Directors. "With Russ at the helm, Onvia's next years will be extraordinary."
