BPM LLP, which is one of the 50 largest public accounting and advisory firms in the United States, has acquired Infinitech Inc., a managed IT services provider (MSP) in San Francisco. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Infinitech, founded in 2002, provides managed and custom IT support services for businesses. The merger will strengthen BPM’s ability to provide a one-stop solution for businesses and emerging start-ups, the company said.
BPM’s Nick Steiner, advisory practice group leader and technology industry group leader, commented on the deal:
“We’re thrilled to be partnering with the team at Infinitech. At a time when many firms are struggling with the challenges of growing with their technology, Infinitech represents the agility and experience required to respond to advancements in IT capabilities. As BPM continues to grow our Advisory practice, our partnership with Infinitech will broaden our IT offerings and strengthen our commitment to providing the most extensive range of specialty consulting services to meet our clients’ diverse needs.”
Infinitech CEO Michael Sellai added:
“Infinitech is looking forward to joining BPM in guiding businesses through the modernization of their processes and services. From remote support to on-site staffing, together, BPM and Infinitech can mobilize solutions to solve a wide variety of business issues as soon as they occur. It’s exciting to be able to help businesses streamline their IT and deploy processes in a matter of minutes rather than days.”
BPM offers a range of technology-related services in such areas as IT security, help desk, and cloud applications such as Oracle NetSuite and Sage Intacct.
