The 20 MSP Expands Footprint with Sublime Computer Services Buy

Managed service provider The 20 MSP purchased Sublime Computer Services, a managed IT services and consulting firm out of Nashville. The latest deal is The 20’s 34th M&A in less than two years, part of an aggressive growth strategy aimed at cementing the company’s national footprint, enhancing operational efficiency and driving innovation.

“Our fundamental strategy remains the same: bringing quality MSPs on board to drive continuous improvement and uphold our sky-high standards for excellence in service delivery nationwide,” said Tim Conkle, The 20 MSP founder and CEO.

Led by owner and CEO, Adam Bell, Sublime joined The 20 MSP Group in 2018 to catalyze new growth and conquer persistent, scale-based difficulties. The 20 provided it with tools and resources to overcome pain points and increase revenue.

“We are thrilled to finalize this acquisition and expand into the Nashville market,” said Conkle. “Adam and his team came to us looking for help conquering the business side of things. They had the talent and the drive, and our proven model was the missing ingredient that allowed them to unlock their true potential and get to that next level. It’s been a pleasure to witness their growth, and a true privilege to welcome the Sublime team to The 20 MSP team.”

“Member MSPs remain the primary focus of our M&A plans, as we work closely with these companies on a daily basis,” he continued. “But the lynchpin in a successful acquisition is cultural and operational compatibility, and we’re interested in any MSP that exemplifies the traits we consider integral to our company’s long-term health and success. We’re casting our net a little wider, but our fundamental strategy remains the same: bringing quality MSPs on board to drive continuous improvement and uphold our sky-high standards for excellence in service delivery.”

Employees of Sublime, it noted, will be taking on new roles within The 20 MSP.

“Our practice up to this point has been to set up MSP owners with management positions if they’re not looking to retire or exit the industry,” Conkle explained. “These industry pros bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table, and we believe that their continued engagement plays a pivotal role in ensuring a seamless transition for both their clients and employees.”
