    Punctuating an eventful year, SSA Global yesterday reported record fourth-quarter and fiscal 2005 revenues, driven in part by heady growth in extensions to its core enterprise resources (ERP) applications suite -- notably the company's supply chain, customer relationship and corporate performance management software modules.

    The financial report, the first released by SSA since closing a challenging initial public offering last May and agreeing to buy former dot-com CRM darling Epiphany and boutique human capital management player Boniva Software, offers tangible evidence of a company whose four-year-long growth-by-acquisition and integration strategy is finally paying dividends.

    For the fourth quarter ended July 31, revenue reached a record $186.9 million, a 7% increase from the like period last year. Revenue in fiscal 2005 exceeded $711 million, a 12% jump from last year.
