Sell-side advisory

New York – Alantra, a leading global investment bank and asset management firm, is pleased to announce that Enquizit, an experienced provider of AWS cloud services, was acquired by CDW, a leading multi-brand technology solutions provider. The transaction closed in Q2 2023 and the deal value was not disclosed. 

Founded in 2002 and headquartered in McLean, Virginia, Enquizit designs, develops, and manages mission-critical applications. In addition, SkyMap^TM, a proprietary, AI-powered cloud migration service delivery accelerator developed by Enquizit, allows organizations to achieve a resilient and secure cloud posture using AWS AI and machine learning to determine optimized paths to the cloud with less risk. 

TC Ratnapuri, Founder and Chairman of Enquizit, said: “Enquizit has grown rapidly in the last few years due to a series of government contract wins. We were faced with the challenge of building an internal mechanism to scale delivery and maintain our culture of excellence, or to team with another organization who already has this mechanism in place. After a thorough analysis, we decided joining CDW was the best path forward to continue serving our customers at scale.” 

Andy Eccles, Senior Vice President of Integrated Technology Solutions at CDW, said: “The Enquizit acquisition provides additional capabilities to the CDW Public Sector Cloud Services Practice and enables us to accelerate our Public Sector customers’ cloud strategies. Enquizit complements our existing commercial-focused Digital Velocity practice via professional services, including Application Modernization, Cloud Transformation, and Cybersecurity.”  

This transaction highlights Alantra’s strong position and successful track record as advisors to companies focused on digital transformation. Alantra served as exclusive financial advisor to Enquizit.
