Primary Insight
What Stands Out
- Bluewave Technology Group builds scale in Kentucky via acquisitions of Single Point Communications Group (SinglePoint) (2023) and Virtual Telecomm (2022), expanding cloud, DRaaS, and data center solutions.
- Private equity shows up in larger platform moves, including the ~$1.6B go-private acquisition of Computer Services, Inc. (CSI) by Centerbridge Partners, L.P. and Bridgeport Partners (2022).
- Technology-adjacent IT services are a theme: V-Soft Consulting acquired Logisolve (2026) to strengthen its Data & AI capabilities, while Helpware was recapitalized to support AI and digital customer experience services (2022).
- Deals often describe capability expansion in practical delivery areas—managed services (including NOC operations), cloud and Google Workspace services, or industry-focused offerings such as logistics automation and workplace solutions.
- Activity spans multiple years (2015–2026), indicating an ongoing pipeline rather than a single-off transaction cluster.
