SYNNEX Corporation Announces Acquisitions of Aspire Technology Limited and Encover Inc.

Concentrix Corporation, SYNNEX Corporation’s (NYSE:SNX) Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) segment, today announced it has acquired two complementary premier renewal platform companies; Aspire Technology Limited and Encover, Inc., both privately-held. Aspire services IT vendors, distributors and resellers primarily in Europe driving renewal services through its proprietary RenewalsManager SaaS platform. Encover provides automated services primarily focused in the U.S., enabling IT vendors to manage renewals through their enterprise ChESS platform and providing professional services to increase warranty and license renewal rates.

"We are excited to have Aspire and Encover become the foundation of our platform BPO services,” stated Kevin Murai, President and Chief Executive Officer of SYNNEX Corporation. "These investments represent a significant step forward in our BPO services strategy. We are fortunate to also gain the expertise from the leaders and employees of both organizations.”

"Aspire has had strong success in working with distributors and channel partners whereas Encover’s success has primarily been with enterprise customers,” stated Chris Caldwell, SVP and General Manager of Concentrix Corporation. "These companies complement each other well and are industry leaders with their respective proprietary technology platforms that help customers achieve greater success in their renewal programs. The combination of these companies gives us a solution set that fits multiple geographies, complexities and go-to-market strategies of clients for their renewal needs. These acquisitions also provide Concentrix cross-sell and margin expansion opportunities while expanding our BPO footprint.”

Clare Findlay, Chief Executive Officer of Aspire Technology Limited said, "With Concentrix’ growing global presence, we will be able to help our customers in new geographies while attracting new customers to our platform and services. We look forward to becoming a part of the Concentrix team.”
