Harbour Results, Inc.
Terms of the agreement, which officially closed today, were not disclosed.
Harbour Results is a business consulting and services firm that works within the manufacturing industry. The firm provides benchmarking, assessments, strategic development and operational improvements to more than 60 clients.

The transaction also adds more than 60 clients to Wipfli's current catalogue of 60,000.
"Wipfli's culture of service and innovation aligns well with Harbour Results' passion for revitalizing the manufacturing industry," said
