Cloudy MSP Kerv has bought another company and snapped up digital transformation outfit cloudThing.
The acquisition of cloudThing is the fifth company that Kerv has swallowed in a year and is the largest.
It means that the combined group is now a £35 million revenue business with more than 330 employees, serving over 800 customers and with offices in London, Birmingham and Bangalore, India.
Kerv executive chairman Alastair Mills said that the acquisition was a significant step for Kerv and a major investment in the “digital transformation” market.
“We are combining our existing cloud managed services and infrastructure transformation capability with cloudThing’s digital transformation proposition thanks to their combination of DevOps, Data Science, and software engineering services. Every aspect of cloudThing – from its strong organic growth model, culture, people, leadership and approach to customers – makes it an ideal fit for the Kerv group”, he said.
CloudThing will continue to operate in its existing form as a division of Kerv, with the founders remaining with the business to assist with the next phase of growth.
Current COO Stuart Harper assumes the role of cloudThing chief executive officer and joins the Kerv management team along with Mike Wrout, chief customer officer.
