[1]Datum Corporation Acquires BreakFree IT.
Datum Corporation, a Sarasota-based company offering comprehensive, one-stop technology solutions for small- to mid-sized businesses, announced that it has acquired Bradenton-based BreakFree IT (BFIT) in a 100 percent stock purchase. BFIT is a leading provider of outsourced information technology (IT) services throughout the region.
“We take a very deliberate approach to acquiring organizations that will add to and fulfill strategic geographic goals, as well as bring top talent to the business,” said Tom Frost, CEO of Datum Corporation. “Break Free IT has assembled an excellent team and an impressive client list. The addition of Datum’s resources will add to the already first-rate service.”
BFIT and its founders have been engaged in IT services in the Sarasota and surrounding areas for 20 years. The company’s clients include performing arts organizations, private schools, medical organizations, insurance agencies, and other small- and mid-sized businesses. In addition to acquiring the clients and stock, Datum will retain all of BFIT’s current staff.
“Over the past 20 years I have cultivated deep relationships and bonds with the business owners in Sarasota, Bradenton and the surrounding areas,” said Jeff Wood, former President of BFIT. “Joining forces with Datum is a natural extension of the services BreakFree IT already provides, and will only strengthen the relationships I have developed during my career in Information Technology.”
