Austin, TX and Winnipeg, Canada – May 2, 2023 – Praecipio is acquiring Avant Systems Group, expanding its global practice as the premier cloud-first business and technology consulting firm in the U.S. and Canada. Avant is a Canadian-based Atlassian Platinum Solution Partner known for its exceptional support of the full range of Atlassian tools. The agreement reinforces Praecipio’s mission to build truly connected enterprises. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Avant is highly regarded for its results-oriented approach, and for bringing excellence, accountability, and responsiveness to every engagement, with a focus on the Atlassian platform, enterprise agile coaching, IT integration, and work management solutions. 

“Avant is well known in Canada for its concierge-level service and solutions,” said Praecipio Chief Executive Officer Michael Rapp. “We want to amplify what they do so well and expand on it. By combining our best-in-class services, support, and capabilities, we are able to offer existing and future Canada-based clients something new and unique: local talent with extensive experience to deliver a full spectrum of enterprise transformation solutions.

Avant is a stellar addition to Praecipio’s already robust team. Praecipio has differentiated itself in the U.S. as an enterprise-level strategic advisor with strong customer-focused business practices and superior technical capabilities. Acquiring Avant further cements Praecipio’s position as the market leader for Atlassian products and enterprise transformation in the U.S. and expands their footprint into Canada.

“We are excited to join Praecipio,” said Avant President and CEO Ryan Hannah. “By tapping into Praecipio’s breadth and depth of expertise, we can deliver unrivaled value for our clients. And because of our shared commitment to a customer-first culture, clients can depend on responsive and adaptive support.”
