On December 19, 2023, Prairie Capital partnered with founder Nick Recker and senior management to recapitalize Blue Alliance IT. Headquartered in Cincinnati, OH, Blue Alliance IT is an operator-led, growth platform that provides outsourced managed IT services to small, medium and enterprise clients in the healthcare, architectural & construction, education and manufacturing industries.

Blue Alliance IT currently consists of four subsidiaries: Path Forward IT, BECA, Skynet and United Systems. While each of these subsidiaries operate as independent brands, the Blue Alliance IT platform provides technical expertise, centralized back-office functions, operating toolkits and strategic planning to each member company.

The domestic IT MSP market is estimated to be $60.5 billion and projected to experience robust growth over the coming years. Several market tailwinds support the continued outsourcing of IT managed services including IT complexity, security / compliance considerations, and technical labor shortages. Blue Alliance IT’s technical specialization, localization and industry verticalization attracts new customers and facilitates long-term relationships with existing clients.

Prairie Capital partnered with the founder and senior management to accelerate the growth of Blue Alliance IT through company-building investments in human capital, sales & marketing, infrastructure, and add-on acquisitions.
