Philadelphia, PA & Boston, MA

IT Solutions Consulting, LLC, a leading managed service provider serving commercial firms, professional institutions, and non-profit organizations across the country, announced today the acquisition of Spade Technology. Based in Mansfield, Massachusetts, Spade is an award-winning provider of IT services for the Greater Boston Area.

This marks IT Solutions’ eighth acquisition and third within 2023, enabling the company to further pursue its vision of redefining what exceptional IT services look like. The addition of Spade Technology reinforces this vision and bolsters IT Solutions’ ability to deliver process-driven and customer-centric services to more businesses while expanding into New England.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Spade Technology into the IT Solutions Team,” shared IT Solutions’ CEO, Garrett Graney. “This acquisition is a major step in our ongoing journey to reach beyond the mid-Atlantic region while advancing our commitment to delivering top-tier services. As IT Solutions and Spade share similar values, operational excellence, and an unwavering dedication to client success, this partnership will continue to pave the way for an incredibly bright future for current and future employees and clients. Together, we are well-equipped to serve businesses across North America as their trusted IT provider.”

“Like IT Solutions, Spade is committed to delivering long-lasting IT solutions that empower our clients to achieve their business objectives and enjoy complete peace of mind,” commented Myles Keough, CEO of Spade Technology. “Since 2001, we have strived to offer New England businesses the same kind of IT services they’d expect from a large-scale enterprise, so we’re looking forward to doing that alongside IT Solutions. Our partnership with IT Solutions is an exciting journey that will continue to create new opportunities for our valued clients and dedicated employees.”

IT Solutions’ most recent acquisition is a strategic move in line with the national trend of consolidation within the Managed Service Provider (MSP) landscape. By combining core competencies and expertise, MSPs are proactively addressing the rising cybersecurity threats, supporting business scalability, and providing enhanced outcomes for clients navigating increasingly competitive markets.

IT Solutions intends to continue pursuing well-positioned MSPs across the country as it expands its national footprint.
