Acquisition in Canada of Davis Pierrynowski Limited

 

Kainos Group plc (KNOS), a UK-headquartered IT provider with expertise across
three divisions, Digital Services, Workday Services, and Workday Products,
today announces the acquisition of Davis Pierrynowski Limited, ("Davis Pier").

 

Established in 2014, Davis Pier is a high-growth Canadian consultancy that
specialises in addressing complex challenges for public sector and community
organisations across Canada.

 

Since 2022, Kainos and Davis Pier have partnered to accelerate digital
transformation in the Canadian public and healthcare sectors, including
projects to modernise the Registry of Motor Vehicles, Nova Scotia Healthcare,
and Early Learning and Childcare.

 

In our most recent financial year, our Digital Services Canada business
delivered revenue growth of over 70% to £9m, with the team expanding to more
than 100 colleagues, including 60 based in Canada.

 

Davis Pier is headquartered in Halifax, Nova Scotia, with operations in
Ontario, and employs a total of 120 people. The team will join our Digital
Services division in Canada and will continue to operate under the Davis Pier
brand.

 

Brendan Mooney, CEO of Kainos, commented:

"It has been a privilege to work alongside the Davis Pier team in delivering
solutions for our shared clients that create tangible social impact for
citizens. Bringing our two teams together is a natural next step in the
relationship, and we are excited by the opportunities this creates for our
clients, for our new and existing colleagues, and for our business in Canada."

 

Mike Davis, CEO of Davis Pier, commented:

"We are proud of the impact we have delivered for our public sector,
healthcare, and community clients over many years. With technology now a
fundamental part of society, combining our teams brings proven global
approaches and local expertise to modernise and future-proof public services
for residents in Canada. Together, we can amplify our impact and accelerate
the growth of our combined team."

 

The terms of the acquisition have not been disclosed.
