Canadian IT and business consulting services firm CGI has bought UK-based technology and engineering consultancy BJSS.
Founded in 1993 BJSS is the UK's largest privately-owned tech consultancy providing clients with IT solutions, software engineering services such as AI and cybersecurity, cloud migration and automated workflows. It helps businesses in a range of industries such as media & entertainment, transport & logistics, healthcare & life sciences.
According to its most recent filing to Companies House for the year to 30 April 2023, it recorded revenues of £300.7 million, up 15.7 per cent on the previous year. It had gross profit of £105.2 million, up 4.8 per cent.
Over 2,400 consultants and professionals will join CGI, which it hopes will deepen its operations across the UK in key industry sectors such as retail, health, government, financial services and energy & utilities.
“BJSS has a well-earned reputation for delivering exceptional value to its clients, driven by technical excellence and innovative thinking,” said Tara McGeehan, President of CGI’s UK and Australia operations. “By joining forces, we will strengthen our ability to help clients across the private and public sectors achieve measurable outcomes, such as driving efficiencies, improving customer experiences and generating business growth.”
McGeehan added, “Our companies share a strong cultural alignment and pride in helping clients solve complex challenges to deliver value. BJSS employees will benefit from CGI’s ownership culture, which empowers all employees to become company owners and actively shape our future direction, whilst providing an enjoyable and collaborative working environment where they can fulfil their career potential.”
Glynn Robinson, BJSS Chairman commented: “Joining CGI represents an exciting new chapter for BJSS. Both CGI and BJSS share a commitment to sustainability, employee engagement and long-term client relationships. Together, we can leverage our complementary strengths to deliver even greater value for our clients while creating new opportunities for our talented team.”
The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions and is expected to close in February 2025.
