Managed Service Provider Orbital10 has acquired Yeovil-based cybersecurity and IT support company MCS Computer Support, boosting 1st, 2nd and 3rd line support, further expanding cybersecurity capabilities and extending geographical coverage in the Southwest.
This strategic acquisition marks a significant milestone in the growth and expansion of Orbital10. It is the fifth acquisition in the last 24 months following the previous acquisitions of PC Logix IT services, Tantra Apple Mac services, Think Rethink printer services and Geek Guru IT and cybersecurity services.
The acquisition will leverage the strengths of the group in delivering tailored IT services to businesses on both a local and a national scale, as well as continue the Group’s dual-growth strategy: to grow the customer base through the provision and support of the complete suite of technology that businesses require; and acquire or merge additional businesses into the Group.
“We are continuing to introduce additional services so customers can have one point of contact for all their technical issues and requirements, acting as a technology partner not just a supplier,” explains Mark Salvin, CEO of Orbital10. “Different technologies require specialist knowledge as well as evolving, resilient security measures to ensure businesses remain protected and compliant. Each acquisition has delivered these expanded services and cybersecurity capabilities as well as expanding service delivery scales.”
“The latest acquisitions provide extensive cross-selling opportunities as well as new business sales. We are already in talks with new potential acquisition opportunities, but we are keen to talk to more business owners who are thinking about an exit strategy,” states Mark Salvin, CEO of Orbital10.
