Solü Technology acquires Atlanta firm

May 21, 2014

Solü Technology Partners, a Rochester, N.Y.-based IT staffing and managed services firm, acquired LEHAN, a management consulting and professional services firm based in Atlanta. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.

LEHAN was founded in 2009 and targets IT and finance clients. It is Solü’s second acquisition and its first office in the South, putting the company in closer proximity to existing clients in Atlanta. The firm last year acquired Phoenix-based Technology Staffing Solutions.

Bruce Smith, former managing partner for LEHAN, and Alex Bruce, LEHAN’s former partner and senior vice president - sales and delivery operations, will become directors of Solü and work with Jerry Jewell, Solü’s chief operating officer. Smith will develop Solü’s finance-based offerings nationwide, and Bruce will focus on expanding the company’s presence in the South.

“The acquisition of LEHAN expands our access to talent, advances the depth of services Solü can provide, expands Solü’s national client base, increases opportunities for employees, and further solidifies our growth as a national full service company that can help clients with their needs across the full professional services spectrum, from IT to finance,” said Solü President Jim Smith

“Solü increasingly performs technology projects across client operations into areas such as finance, Smith said. “And LEHAN helps clients in the areas of technology and finance. So leveraging LEHAN’s expertise in finance will evolve how we both support clients.”

The transaction closed May 19. LEHAN already transitioned to the Solü brand.
