An Edinburgh-based IT managed services company has beefed up its global operations by acquiring Australian-based EDF Systems.
Purview Consultancy Services, which provides IT solutions and cutting-edge products, including AI-powered smart glasses for the visually impaired and deaf, has a presence in over 21 countries and a workforce exceeding 1,550 employees.
EDF Systems specialise in supplying communications, security and other technical services in various industries. These include education, health, defence, data centres, retail and infrastructure.
This acquisition will enhance Purview’s ability to support major data centres and position the company to deliver advanced IT solutions to a broader client base in Australia and beyond. The integration will add 52 highly skilled professionals to Purview’s team, reflecting the company’s commitment to driving innovation and excellence across its services. It will also, according to Purview, strengthen its service offerings in the Asia-Pacific region by integrating EDF’s capabilities.
Reddy Punna, the founder and CEO of Purview Services, said: “This marks a transformative chapter in Purview’s journey of global growth. The acquisition of EDF Systems aligns with our vision to provide unparalleled IT solutions and infrastructure across continents.
The deal was made possible by £1.8 million in funding from banking giant HSBC UK.
"HSBC UK’s support has been instrumental in enabling us to extend our reach and infrastructure to work with large-scale data centres in Australia. This milestone reinforces Purview’s position as a trusted partner for some of the world’s largest corporations," said Punna.
Coenraad Horn, relationship manager at HSBC UK, added: “We are proud to continue supporting Purview in its impressive global expansion. Having worked with the company since its inception in 2010, it is rewarding to witness their growth and commitment to delivering exceptional IT services to leading organisations worldwide. This acquisition is a testament to Purview’s vision and the strength of our partnership.”
