With $30 million in new funding, ITPartners is gearing up for a more aggressive M&A push. The Grand Rapids-based MSP has already acquired three companies in the past two years, reports CRN. Now it’s aiming to close three more by year-end and maintain a steady clip of five to six deals annually over the next few years. The target: small to midsize MSPs across North America, especially those with a strong base of recurring revenue.This isn’t a typical roll-up. ITPartners isn’t working with traditional private equity, which means it keeps full operational control and can move faster when it finds the right fit. The team is in conversation with about 45 MSPs right now, with 15 of those in active deal discussions. The model is designed for flexibility, some owners cash out, others roll equity into the larger business and join the team.Beyond growth, the company is thinking long-term about community impact. ITPartners has committed to investing $1 million annually in global development efforts. Recent initiatives include trips to Uganda and the Dominican Republic, where the team supported entrepreneurship and sourced goods directly from local artisans to distribute at industry events.As for what makes a good partner, it’s not just about numbers. ITPartners is looking for cultural fit, companies that care about doing good work and building something lasting. The plan is clear: scale intentionally, stay values-driven, and create space for founders who want to grow or exit on their own terms.
