inTec’s acquisition model stands out in the market. In all cases, they acquire a controlling interest but the partners identity and its management remain the same. inTec see this as a very important element in ensuring that customers immediately have trust and confidence in exploring technology solutions.
The group’s route to market differentiates it from other consultancies in the technology sector and makes it a compelling proposition for investors. They work with SMEs offering fully scalable digital technology solutions that can grow with their businesses.
Simon Howitt, explained inTec's objective is to bring together a network of telecoms providers who recognise the need to broaden their portfolios but do not have the resources to achieve their ambitions to become one-stop-shop communication and technology providers, and thereby add value to their businesses. He said:
“Our acquisition model stands out in the market. In all cases, we acquire a controlling interest, but the partners identity and its management remain the same. We see this as a very important element in ensuring that customers immediately have trust and confidence in exploring technology solutions. We give companies the ability to offer technology solutions and consulting services to their customers immediately, without having to invest their time and resources into building the necessary skill sets in house. The partnership is a 2-way benefit. Our partners get access to the technology skills, consulting resources and full back office support necessary to grow their businesses (including Finance, Customer Relationship Management, Marketing, Billing, Leasing, HR) and we gain a loyal customer base that has been developed and nurtured over several years. It’s a win-win situation for all parties.”
inTec can deliver technology that keeps up with the evolving digital landscape and help companies deploy solutions to compete more effectively. The future looks bright for the inTec network who continue to revolutionise specialist support services for SMEs.
Simon Howitt added:
“I am delighted that we continue to enhance our impressive partner portfolio and am looking forward to welcoming other new partners throughout 2020. It’s such an exciting and interesting time for all of our partners. Watch this space for more developments!”
