Bechtle has extended its managed services portfolio and UK footprint with the acquisition of UK-based MSP ACS Systems, its third acquisition this year.
The acquisition brings 93 employees to Bechtle’s Chippenham and Manchester branches, plus modern workplace, data centre and cyber security solutions, which the firm says will complement its current UK activities.
The executive management team of ACS will remain in their current roles and oversee the process of integrating the company into the Bechtle Group together with James Napp, MD of Bechtle direct UK.
ACS CEO Jon Thorpe said: “Together with Bechtle, we’re well poised to keep growing while ensuring consistent, long-term support for our customers during their digital transformation. I’m very much looking forward to this new chapter in our company’s history.”
Konstantin Ebert, EVP for France, Benelux and UK, Bechtle AG, added: “We already have a successful track record together and are very positive that, by joining forces, both companies can offer huge added value in terms of end-to-end customer support.”
