Repeat Business Systems (RBS), a leading technology and managed services provider in the Capital Region, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Strategic Data Systems (SDS), also a respected technology solutions firm known for its expertise in IT infrastructure, data management, and security services for 36 years.
Repeat Business Systems, Inc., is locally owned and operated by Dr. Dawn Abbuhl and John Abbuhl and has been a cutting-edge technology partner serving the Capital Region for 38 years. Founded in 1987, RBS has successfully grown through the acquisition of 16 companies, creating a strong organization made up of experienced technicians, trusted consultants, and an award-winning customer care team. Part of their mission statement describes Repeat Business Systems perfectly. “A cutting-edge technology leader, keenly focused on integrity and true partnerships.”
This strategic acquisition strengthens Repeat Business Systems’ ability to deliver an expanded portfolio of advanced technology solutions while maintaining its hallmark of personal, high-touch service with unmatched technical capabilities.
“Strategic Data Systems is a natural fit for our organization,” said Dr. Dawn Abbuhl, President of Repeat Business Systems. “Their technical expertise and customer-first culture align closely with our values, and the technical expertise they are bringing is second to none. This acquisition allows us to continue our incredible growth and augment our expertise and technical support for our customers’ evolving technological needs, while continuing to provide the exceptional service and partnership we are known for. In addition, we can now offer a deeper array of technology to the SDS customers, including copiers, mailing and shipping equipment, VoIP, interactive flat panel displays, software utilizing the next generation AI, and more.
The addition of Strategic Data Systems enhances Repeat Business Systems’ capabilities across IT services, cybersecurity, managed network services, data protection, disaster recovery, and infrastructure support — providing customers with greater depth, broader expertise, and expanded resources.
“Our team is excited to join Repeat Business Systems,” said Stuart Sacks, President of Strategic Data Systems. “This partnership allows us to grow, invest further in our people and technologies, and bring even more value to our customers, without losing the culture and relationships, many of which we have maintained for decades.”
There will be no immediate changes to customer contacts, contracts, or service processes. Both organizations are committed to ensuring a seamless transition and uninterrupted service for all customers. All the current SDS staff will remain and have integrated perfectly into the Repeat Business Systems team.
