Irish-domiciled IT services firm Accenture has snapped up CS Technology, a US-based provider of infrastructure transformation services, for an undisclosed amount.
Established in 1992, CS Technology provides a wide range of cloud infrastructure engineering capabilities with expertise in the areas of infrastructure and cloud planning, critical facilities design, data centres and modern workplace technologies.
The acquisition of CS Technology will strengthen Accenture Cloud First’s capabilities in infrastructure engineering.
Also, the deal will help the Irish IT services firm boost its portfolio of cloud services, helping clients take full advantage of the benefits that cloud and distributed edge computing platforms offer to optimise the return on their cloud investments.
Accenture Cloud First global lead Karthik Narain said: “Accenture’s acquisition of CS Technology expands the hybrid cloud infrastructure capabilities our clients need to become cloud-first enterprises and realise value faster.
“The emerging applications of tomorrow require a range of technologies across the cloud continuum. Companies must evolve their technology infrastructure in a compressed timeframe, which requires moving quickly and with confidence.
“The addition of CS Technology better positions Accenture Cloud First to design and execute fit-for-purpose, hybrid cloud strategies that achieve measurable business outcomes.”
With offices in London, Melbourne and Sydney, CS Technology currently caters to Fortune 2000 clients across several sectors including financial services, retail and pharmaceutical, among others.
The company also holds strategic ecosystem partnerships with OEMs, data centre providers and major cloud providers.
The latest deal will add more than 100 professionals to the Irish firm with various accreditations in cloud, workplace, project management and engineering.
CS Technology CEO John Rosato said: “For nearly 30 years, our CS Technology team has delivered transformative technology strategies and solutions that are married to our clients’ business outcomes, which is a requisite capability in the age of digital.
“Joining the Accenture team will collectively elevate our position as trusted advisors to our largest clients.
“Our deep specialisation and experience will be magnified through this acquisition and will enable us to better deliver on our clients’ complex cloud, data centre, workplace and operating challenges.”
