Tech Mahindra to buy CJS Solutions Group

Software services firm Tech Mahindra Ltd has signed a definitive agreement to acquire CJS Solutions Group LLC; a US based healthcare information technology consulting company that does business as the HCI Group. The deal values CJS Solutions at an enterprise value of $110 Million.
The HCI Group works with global Tier-I healthcare service providers, primarily in the US and UK. It focuses on providing end-to-end implementation of electronic health record (EHR) and electronic medical record (EMR) software, training and support services. The company also has a presence in Europe, West Asia and Asia-Pacific and employs more than 500 professionals globally.

Healthcare and Life Sciences has been one of the focus areas for Tech Mahindra globally and the acquisition will help in consolidating its position. Healthcare is one of the few sectors globally that is driving adoption of digital technologies. The acquisition will not only position Tech Mahindra as a significant player in the healthcare provider space, but will also provide an opportunity to go deeper in the space via EMR implementation and surrounding services.

In May 2016, Tech Mahindra announced it will acquire UK based Target Group in a deal worth around £120 Million to strengthen its presence in the banking and financial services space. In June, it said it had acquired UK based digital transformation firm BIO Agency Ltd.
