AdEPT Technology Group PLC (LSE:ADT) said the recently acquired cloud networking and communications specialist Datrix is integrating well and achieving early key goals, including customer renewals and new business.
AdEPT bought Datrix for up to £16mln in April this year in a move described as a “game changer” by AdEPT’s chief executive Phil Race.
Datrix’s migration to AdEPT’s internal systems, ONE AdEPT, was achieved in August, ahead of plan, leading to increased operational insights and benefits to customers from the expertise brought by the acquisition, the group said.
In addition, Datrix has achieved contract renewals, including a three-year extension for a major client that forms part of the critical national infrastructure and a two-year extension for a UK-wide 160 site NHS client.
Datrix has also won new business in the secure access service edge (SASE) field, including a fully managed SASE service for a pan-European electrical parts distributor, a managed SASE and network service for a UK-wide logistics company and a managed network and SASE service for a prestigious independent school.
AdEPT said the next step is to achieve cross-selling success, capitalising on the scale, expertise and expanded capabilities brought about by the acquisition.
Phil Race, CEO of AdEPT, said: "The Datrix acquisition is a game changer for us, and we are really enthused by its swift integration and even more so by the opportunities we are seeing following its addition to the group. We already have sales engagements with both new and existing clients, which is extremely encouraging."
Mark Thomas, the managing director of Datrix, added: "We are getting very positive feedback from clients about the benefits of scale from the larger group. The joined-up approach to new business, enabled and underpinned by the ONE AdEPT platform, will be a focus in the months ahead as we continue to demonstrate the benefits of our combined capabilities - adding further value to our existing customer base as well as attracting new clients."
