Impera plc has acquired Dynax Systems Limited to operate alongside its two existing operating companies ImperaData Ltd and Secure Networks UK Ltd.

Impera provides an integrated range of IT products and services to help customers operate as effectively as possible through the secure, reliable and continuous availability of their IT infrastructure, systems and data. Dynax is a leading provider of IT infrastructure products and services to the UK SME and corporate market and will fully compliment the business continuity, data backup and network security services provided by ImperaData and Secure Networks.

Dynax will operate as a separate business unit within the Impera group with Eddy Alejos as Dynax’s managing director, supported by his existing management team and employees. Peter MacLean has joined the board of Dynax as chairman.

Peter MacLean, chairman and chief executive of Impera plc said “The strategy of Impera is to build a portfolio of services and products focused on IT high availability solutions including business continuity, network and data management and managed IT services. Dynax is a proven supplier of IT services that will give the Impera group an important stepping stone towards the realisation of this strategy thereby providing increasing value to customers, employees and shareholders”.

Dynax provides a range of IT system integration and IT communications products and services including network consultancy, hardware and software, technical products and services, voice data products, installation, maintenance and support contracts to corporate customers and large SMEs. Dynax is placing increasing emphasis on the convergence market of integrated voice and data products and services.

ImperaData is dedicated to providing business continuity and data backup solutions. Their goal is to help customers protect their businesses through the deployment of robust and cost effective solutions which secure business critical data and applications to enable them to carry on with their business in the event of data loss or a disaster.

Secure Networks is a dedicated network security partner – one of the few vendor independent UK companies to focus exclusively on this key issue. Their goal is to help customers achieve complete security for their networks and data to enable them to gain all of the competitive advantage of network technology – with none of the risk.
