HCS, a leading business IT, security and telecoms company, has acquired Fixaphone, a provider of business telephone systems. Following the acquisition, HCS forecasts that its telecoms turnover will reach €1 million in the next three years. The acquisition will add 750 Fixaphone customers to HCS’ portfolio.

In business for more than 20 years, Fixaphone specialises in on-premise PBX telephony sales and maintenance for small businesses. Combining this deep industry knowledge with HCS’ cloud-hosted telecoms solutions will provide both customer bases with an enhanced service offering as the move to the cloud continues in earnest.

Fixaphone will integrate into HCS and trade under the HCS brand with immediate effect. The acquisition will enhance HCS’ telecom sales team and allow it to cross-sell to each customer base, driving value and enabling them to grow and innovate. Fixaphone customers include Brothers of Charity Services, Keeling’s, Fitzgerald Power Chartered Accountants, and Mount Congreve Estate.

Mick Foley, managing director, Fixaphone, said: “Though technologies and platforms are changing, the telecoms knowledge and experience built up with Fixaphone over the last 20 years will be invaluable on the next stage of the journey. We have the golden opportunity to leverage each other’s expertise to accelerate our shared growth.”

Sean Hegarty, head of operations, HCS, added: “Merging the pool of knowledge and experience that Fixaphone brings with our modern telecommunications solutions will give us a powerful edge. We look forward to building on this as we continue on our upward growth trajectory.”

HCS is headquartered in Waterford and with a base in Dublin, the company recently opened a third location in Cork.
