OST Acquires Stratum Technology
OST, a Midwest-based digital and IT consultancy, acquired Texas-based cloud service provider Stratum Technology. This acquisition expands OST’s cloud services capabilities thanks to Stratum’s deep technical expertise and certifications in both AWS and Microsoft. Stratum joins OST with architects, engineers and project managers who have developed relationships with top partners and carry advanced specializations such as the Microsoft Azure Expert Managed Services Provider designation.
For both organizations, the acquisition means that clients will have access to more support, experience and expertise than ever before.
“For 25 years, OST has walked alongside clients to architect, build and manage how and where technology runs,” said OST president and CEO Meredith Bronk. “The acquisition of Stratum Technology is a reflection of rapid acceleration in this space and ensures that OST continues to drive meaningful and valuable outcomes for our clients.”
In addition to expanding cloud services, this acquisition pairs two of the nation’s leading experts in Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare. This reinforces OST’s position as a premier partner for Epic cloud implementations in the United States.
This acquisition also comes on the heels of last year’s integration of Minneapolis-based design firm Azul Seven, one of several bold moves to target growth opportunities that allow OST to help leading companies accelerate their digital business models.
