WeDo Business Services has acquired Lucid Networks for an undisclosed sum.
Lucid, which was based at Manchester Science Park, will be integrated into the WeDo Digital business, with its staff moving to its office at MediaCityUK.
“Lee [Turver] and I recently joined the group to spearhead the development of WeDo Digital, and we are thrilled to bring in the team from Lucid Networks and managed IT services expertise as the next stage in our growth,” said Luke Pilfold-Thomas.
“We were looking to increase our digital offering to include more traditional IT managed services and wanted to acquire a north west business with a strong record of customer retention. Lucid has developed and maintained an excellent business and client base over the years, with many of its customer relationships spanning more than a decade, so it fitted the bill perfectly.
“We will continue to offer the highest level of service and technology innovation across applications and infrastructure to its customers to help them build and grow their own businesses, as well as being able to offer this expertise to clients of the wider WeDo group.”
Lucid specialises in IT services including complex infrastructure projects, cyber security, back-up hosting solutions and day-to-day IT strategy delivery.
WeDo Business Services is based in Oldham and now employs almost 100 people across its offices in Oldham, Colchester, Sheffield, Swindon and MediaCityUK.
