TIMETOACT GROUP

TIMETOACT GROUP is a leading IT services provider.

TIMETOACT GROUP offers a comprehensive portfolio of digitalisation expertise, software and IT consulting services, primarily serving medium-sized companies and corporations in the industrial, financial and services sectors, as well as public institutions. 

Established in Cologne in 1998, TIMETOACT GROUP operates across 30 locations in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, as well as in Latvia, Malaysia, Singapore, Spain, Ukraine, Hungary, and the USA.

Today, the group has over 1,400 employees and has grown revenues from €115 million in 2020 to more than €360 million in 2024.

VALUE CREATION

With Equistone’s support, the group has achieved strong external growth through its buy-and-build strategy, with 12 add-on acquisitions successfully completed during the investment period. This strategy has strengthened the group’s leadership position in its home market of Germany and expanded its geographic footprint into Austria, Hungary, Switzerland and the USA. As a result, TIMETOACT GROUP has increased its near-shoring capacity, making the business more price competitive while improving its ability to offer complementary IT services.

Equistone has assisted with the professionalisation of the group through the establishment of a CFO office, the buildup of a capable M&A team, and the introduction of an operational excellence team to execute a disciplined post-merger integration (PMI) process for all add-on acquisitions. Additionally, various value creation initiatives have been implemented, including the rollout of a new pricing strategy. Lastly, the group has initiated a project to consolidate its IT systems, laying the groundwork for further buy-and-build efforts to make the group one of the most integrated service organisations in its segment.
