IT services firm swoops for Microsoft consultancy

Central Technology Group, the Derbyshire-based IT services business, has bought yoko: 10, the Sheffield Microsoft consultancy.

The deal will see yoko:10 take office space in each of the Central Technology offices and become the Microsoft Consultancy provider for the company.

Rob Longden, managing director at Central Technology, said: “yoko:10’s values and approach align seamlessly with ours, making this integration a natural step forward.

“If you’re curious, their name translates to ‘sharing best practice’, which reflects the yoko:10 approach to consultancy.

“The combined strength of yoko:10 and Central Technology will enable us to expand our consultative capabilities. Together, we are positioned to serve as a single point of contact for our clients’ technology needs, providing seamless and comprehensive solutions supported by our network of regional offices.”

BRM Solicitors provided legal advice on the deal.

Central Technology Group also has offices in Ashby Magna, Leicestershire, and Wimborne, Dorest.
