Salt Lake City-based Nexus IT, a national provider of managed IT, cloud, cybersecurity and compliance services, has acquired BluePeak Technology Solutions, an IT services provider based in Reno, Nevada.
Nexus IT was backed in the buyout by Diatonic Healthcare, a private equity firm based in Miami.
The transaction marks the eighth acquisition by Nexus IT in recent years and represents a “significant step forward in the company’s mission to build one of the top 10 MSP/MSSPs in the U.S., particularly serving clients in health care, finance and other regulated industries,” Nexus IT said in its announcement of the acquisition.
“Brian and the BluePeak team represent everything we look for in a partner: values-aligned, client-centric and committed to excellence,” said Earl Foote, founder and CEO of Nexus IT. “This acquisition isn’t just about growth; it’s about deepening our ability to elevate IT for organizations across the nation. We’re thrilled to welcome BluePeak, its team and clients into Team Nexus.”
“Joining Nexus IT is a natural evolution for BluePeak,” said Brian Gifford, CEO of BluePeak. “We now have the resources, expertise and infrastructure to deliver even more value to our clients, while preserving the trust and relationships we’ve built locally.”
Concurrent with the acquisition news, Nexus IT announced a $60 million investment from New York City-based private equity firm Metropolitan Partners Group.
