The F12 team was transparent with their intentions throughout our M&A experience. They were proactive with their due diligence and supportive from beginning to end, both with respect to the transaction, as well as ensuring the future of our customers and employees was at the forefront. F12 has worked with us to find ways to enhance service offerings available to our customers while providing growth and development paths for our team members!

When we first looked at becoming a part of F12, the attraction of scale and availability of capital were really the driving factors. Three years in, what I have come to realize is that the greatest benefit has to been to my own growth and the growth of the people that helped build my business. The opportunities that come from working with a strong executive team and an amazing group of outside investors have accelerated my career at a pace beyond what wouldn't have been possible in my own business.

This has been the greatest move of my career, both for its challenge and its reward. The journey from my 25-person MSP into today’s F12, with over 225 staff and 10 locations across Canada, is tremendous for myself and the staff that came along with me. I am proud of those who embraced the F12 vision and grew to become managers and directors, leading their teams to become future leaders.

Beyond the sheer excitement of becoming part of F12, was the process of Integration. Change is a challenge – for clients, staff, and owners. We worked through this process with the F12 team with compassion and understanding. We resurfaced better – together.

It isn’t always easy to make the move to sell your business and join a larger organization, despite knowing it is the best thing to do for your client, your customers, and yourself. I was fortunate to have known leaders within F12 prior to taking this journey which made the decision much easier. F12’s prior experience with acquisitions simplified the integration and allowed us to avoid pitfalls and ensure our mutual goals were met.

Protocol Technologies Inc
In 2009 my business partner and I joined up with F12 after coming to the realization that we had neither the time nor capital to replicate F12’s innovative hardware-as-a-service program. F12’s pace and first-mover innovation haven’t let up. But, more importantly, through all the highs and lows business brings, we’ve remained a partnership of friends.
