BIRMINGHAM, Alabama, March 6, 2019 –NXTsoft (
www.nxtsoft.com), a company that delivers intelligent risk management solutions focused in the areas of compliance, data analytics and cybersecurity, today announced the acquisition of Birmingham, Ala,-based Integrated Legacy Solutions (ILS). The acquisition of ILS will add $5 million in annual revenue to NXTsoft.
ILS offers image and data conversion migration technology for the financial services industry. The company specializes in data management through one of three methods: full data conversion into a new system, data migration into its flagship OmniView Browser™ or a blended approach that combines the two.
Founded in 2013 by Kris Bishop, ILS has 17 employees and has completed more than 500 archive conversion or migration projects and has more than 160 banks and credit union customers running the OmniView Browser for their long term research and printing needs. NXTsoft plans to retain the entire ILS staff, with Bishop remaining as CEO of the business unit.
NXTsoft intends to cross-sell its existing compliance, data analytics and cybersecurity solutions into the current ILS customer base as well as augment the company’s existing sales and marketing efforts to continue to grow their core business.
“ILS is respected as a leading provider of legacy data migration and conversion tools to the financial industry,” said David Brasfield, CEO of NXTsoft. “We anticipate that Kris and the ILS team joining the NXTsoft umbrella will engender additional sales and development opportunities for both parties,” Brasfield said.
“NXTsoft has proven track record in developing and growing companies similar to ILS,” said Kris Bishop, president and CEO of ILS. “Competence of the management team, commitment to product development and customer service and the positive work culture all factored in the decision to join NXTsoft,” Bishop said.
ILS was assisted by Benchmark International in the facilitation of this transaction.
