Nasstar completes acquisition of KCOM National ICT services business

Nasstar has announced it has completed the acquisition of KCOM National. The acquisition makes Nasstar one of the largest independent providers of managed services in the UK with over 1,200 employees.

Wayne Churchill, CEO of Nasstar, said: “We have been delighted with the feedback from customers since we announced the acquisition, and this has helped move the deal to completion quickly. We now look forward to the future and realising the value and opportunities that the combination of KCOM’s people, capabilities and customers represents combined with Nasstar.”

Simon Moorhead, Chief Information Officer at the Rail Delivery Group, said: “Our long standing relationship with KCOM has been successful for both organisations in supporting crucial information and ticketing services for rail customers across Britain. We look forward to working on the next phase of development for cloud and customer-serving technologies with the additional insight, capability and innovation offered by Nasstar.”
