BTA member Advanced Business Methods (ABM), headquartered in West Fargo, North Dakota, has acquired True IT LLC, a Fargo, North Dakota-based IT, managed IT services and solutions provider. The official announcement was made in West Fargo on July 6. The move to acquire True IT first started in the summer of 2022.

"It was essential to the growth of these companies to come together," said Jeff Ellingson, president, ABM. "Our customers have been asking for this for many years and now we can deliver them a greater experience when it comes to providing technology to our customers."

The acquisition of True IT LLC fits into ABM's mission and growth strategy. With the addition of True IT and its expertise, ABM will expand its offerings beyond copier/MFPs, printers, wide format and scanning solutions to now include managed IT services, cybersecurity, project management and a robust Microsoft practice.

"We are committed to delivering an unparalleled user experience, ensuring a secure environment against cyberthreats and delivering the value that every company desires from their technology," said Zac Paulson, president, True IT.

As part of the acquisition, ABM has formed a division of the company called "abm technology group."

This division will be home for IT services and solutions going forward. True IT LLC will now become part of this group offering True IT products and services.
