Dual-listed Datatec subsidiary Logicalis has boosted its business intelligence capabilities with the acquisition of UK-based business intelligence consultancy Trovus.

The absorption of Trovus, which provided business insight solutions, professional services and managed services to large enterprise clients, would strengthen Logicalis’ business analytics and information management offering, while unlocking opportunities in the information insights and big data markets.

“The combination will enable Logicalis to significantly increase the depth of its business intelligence engagement model, while retaining its focus on licence and supporting infrastructure sales.

“This acquisition of Trovus supports our strategic goal of growing annuity revenue streams within the business. Trovus has highly specialised skills,” said Datatec CEO Jens Montanana.
