ConvergeOne has signed an agreement to acquire Rockefeller Group Technology Solutions (RGTS), a unified communications as a service (UCaaS) pioneer based in New York.

Required regulatory and government approvals to complete the transaction will occur in the coming weeks.

“This acquisition will complement ConvergeOne’s already comprehensive portfolio and expand our Collaboration Cloud offerings available to our customers today,” said John McKenna Jr., chairman and CEO, ConvergeOne. “We share RGTS’ focus and commitment to simplify communications solutions for our customers. RGTS has a strong portfolio of Unified Communications as a Service and infrastructure services, as well as business expertise in the transportation, facilities management, and medical industry verticals.

Growth through acquisition is an integral part of ConvergeOne’s long-term business strategy. Since 2005, ConvergeOne has acquired and integrated 12 companies.

 “I’ve never been more excited about this business,” said John Tarduno, president and CEO, RGTS. “ConvergeOne and RGTS have had a long-standing industry relationship, making this an ideal evolution for our business. This acquisition will enhance our customer-centric values and principles. And, as part of a much larger company, we will be able to offer greater value to our customers through a nationwide market presence, a strategically growing portfolio of capabilities, and a shared vision for IT-focused business solutions.”
