July 7, 2014

Ingram Micro Inc. recently announced an acquisition transaction with Rollouts, a Chaska, Minnesota-based IT services company specializing in providing on-demand field technicians and rapidly-deployable workforces to businesses and IT solution providers throughout the U.S. and Canada.

Ingram said Rollouts' national technician network, project management team and extensive online project tracking tool are expected to immediately enhance the company's portfolio of professional services now available to its channel partners. As a part of Ingram Micro Professional Services, Rollouts will build on its specialization in key vertical markets including retail, health care, finance, education and the public sector, to help Ingram Micro channel partners with technical expertise and field-deployable resources, the company said.

"Ingram Micro is maximizing value for our channel partners by bringing to market the solutions, services and support they need to compete more effectively, scale their market reach and expand their technical expertise and professional services capabilities with ease and greater cost efficiency," said Paul Bay, president of North America technology solutions for Ingram Micro Inc. "Adding Rollouts' proven and highly scalable workforce and project management services to our professional services portfolio will further enable our channel partners to pursue larger deals with confidence and look to Ingram Micro Professional Services as an extension of their own IT services practice."

Rollouts' current CEO, Mark Webster, will lead the services practice as director of North America deployment services, reporting to Greg Richey, director of professional services for Ingram Micro.
