ABCA Systems, a North East-based fire, security and electrical compliance services firm, has secured significant further investment through a new continuation vehicle and expanded with its latest acquisition.
The Newcastle-headquartered business has secured additional investment from Trimountain Partners. The transaction was structured by Trimountain Partners, who led the investment consortium alongside co-lead investor partners ACE & Company and Ardlussa Capital, along with investor partners including Apera and Vorsprung Partners.
Alongside this, the company has acquired Enfield-based fire, security and electrical compliance services provider RAAM Construction. The transaction represents the company’s fifth acquisition in the past year.
Group Chief Executive Philip Miller said: "The continuation vehicle led by Trimountain Partners and supported by ACE, Ardlussa, Apera and Vorsprung ensures we have the right investor group to back the next stage of our journey, providing not only capital but insight and partnership.”
"At the same time, welcoming RAAM into the ABCA family adds a deeply skilled and experienced management team that aligns with our culture and ambition."
Trimountain Partners Managing Partner and co-founder Ali Khanbhai said that ABCA had tripled in size over the past four years, largely via organic growth.
He continued: “On the back of this substantial growth, the completion of our continuation vehicle marks yet another significant milestone for ABCA, reinforcing our commitment to the partnership with management, who clearly stand out as one of the most experienced and accomplished teams in the sector.”
"We are delighted to welcome ACE & Company, Ardlussa and Apera as new significant investor partners who bring with them a depth of experience and will add significant value over the Company’s next phase of growth."
ABCA Systems has a workforce of over 500 staff and a national footprint of five offices, with annualised turnover of around £80 million.
