 ·30 Jan 2014

T-Systems in South Africa has announced its acquisition of Intervate, a provider of Enterprise Information Management (EIM) solutions for an undisclosed fee.

Intervate, which assists organisations with improving productivity and collaboration, reducing costs and increasing compliance, is a Microsoft-focused business, which will assist T-Systems in growing this partnership.

Intervate will operate as a legal entity under T-Systems’ Systems Integration division, and will move to T-Systems headquarters in Midrand in due course.

Its customer base spans all of T-Systems’ key vertical sectors, including government and the public sector, finance and insurance, telecoms, education, IT, retail, mining and the automotive industry.

Collin Govender, VP: Systems Integration at T-Systems in South Africa, said: “SharePoint is one of the most in-demand enterprise solutions today, and information management has become critical in today’s data driven world.

“In order for us to continue to innovate we needed to address this growing customer requirement. Intervate was the ideal organisation to bolster our key competencies and grow our Microsoft skills base.”

Lionel Moyal, MD of Intervate will head up the newly created EIM business that will fall within T-Systems’ business.
