Benchmark International is pleased to announce the transaction between Dublin-based managed print services company, Office Technology, and leading certified technology company, Intuity.

Established in 1988, Office Technology oversees all aspects of clients’ print infrastructure, supplying and servicing Canon multi-functional devices as a gold member, as well as providing the software to manage the cohesion of machinery, predominantly for SME and corporate clients.

The acquisition complements the services of Intuity Technologies, an IT solutions partner operating in Galway, Dublin and Carrick on Shannon that employs 67 people and last year posted a total turnover of more than €7m. The combined entity supports 2,000 customers in Ireland, the UK, and the US and plans to focus on the expansion of the IT business and its reach to provide a total IT and printing solution to clients. The company also unveiled plans to invest, expand and add jobs over the next three years at its three offices.

Pat Duffy, Director of Office Technology, said: "I chose Benchmark International because they listened to what I had to say, they came across as people; they were human and they got where I was coming from. They listened, and they asked very poignant questions. They outlined their process which made sense to me. It was a very strategic process and it was almost like a funnel that they were going to start out here and come down to an ultimate sale. And, I believed when Benchmark International told me they were going to sell my business that they would sell it."
