Hexaware has agreed to acquire UK-based consulting firm CPS in a deal valued at around Rs 140 crore, bolstering its European presence and deepening its consulting-led transformation capabilities. The transaction is aimed at strengthening Hexaware’s position in cloud, digital and enterprise solutions for clients across the UK and Europe.

The acquisition adds a specialist consulting layer on top of Hexaware’s existing technology and outsourcing services, helping the company move further up the value chain. CPS’ established UK client relationships and on-ground domain expertise will plug into Hexaware’s global delivery network, giving customers a combined proposition of strategic advisory plus execution at scale.

Strategic Rationale Behind The Deal

By buying CPS, Hexaware gains immediate access to a portfolio of enterprise clients in the UK, a mature and competitive technology consulting market. The move fits Hexaware’s strategy of using targeted acquisitions to accelerate growth in key geographies, sharpen industry focus and cross-sell digital, cloud and analytics services.

What CPS Brings To The Table

CPS adds a bench of experienced consultants, program managers and domain experts familiar with UK regulatory and business environments. This should help Hexaware win larger transformation deals, especially where clients prefer a partner that can both design the roadmap and deliver underlying technology change.

What To Watch Post Acquisition

Investors and clients will watch execution on integration, including talent retention, brand positioning in the UK market and the pace at which joint go-to-market efforts translate into larger deal wins. Focus will also be on how quickly CPS’ consulting strengths can be scaled across Hexaware’s broader European portfolio.
