IT Lab swallows Mirus IT

IT Lab has acquired managed services player Mirus IT.

Mirus will take Group revenues for IT Lab past  £75 million and improve the outfit’s managed services operation, which will now have more than 890 clients and 700 staff.

Mirus has customers across London and Buckinghamshire and has established itself as one of the leading MSPs in the last 17 years.

Mirus IT CEO Paul Tomlinson said: “In early 2019 we reviewed our long-term strategy and felt our clients’ needs and the industry were changing rapidly. After a thorough review, we felt that the right way to address this was to join a larger organisation who had the range of additional skills our clients needed and of course the same approach to providing an exceptional experience when delivering services.”

Tomlinson said that the IT Lab had been on his radar for a while and had the breadth of skills to help it meet the changing needs of customers.

Peter Sweetbaum, CEO of IT Lab, said that it had watched Mirus develop the business and was pleased to add the firm to the business.

“By coming together, we can help Mirus’ clients benefit fully from Microsoft’s 3 Clouds and the transformational capabilities of Dynamics; SharePoint; Teams and Power Apps in addition to Mirus’ Office 365 and Azure offerings,” he said.
