Sarasota IT firm focused on higher ed merges with Texas company

Sarasota tech consulting firm CampusWorks has merged with Austin, Texas-based technology company Dynamic Campus. Both entities serve institutions of higher education. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Based on Clark Road, CampusWorks provides strategy and technology services to higher education institutions to improve organizational effectiveness and enhance the student experience. Founded in 1999, the firm offers managed services, enterprise solutions, optimization services, technology management and data services.

Dynamic Campus, established in 2002, is a strategic technology and functional managed services partner that helps colleges and universities align technology with mission, strengthen operational performance and achieve long-term budget predictability, according to a statement. 

"By joining forces with Dynamic Campus, we are expanding our capacity to deliver the expertise, innovation and scalability that today's institutions need to thrive,” CampusWorks CEO Liz Murphy says in a statement. “Together, we will empower our clients to make data-driven decisions, modernize operations and improve outcomes for students and communities."

Dynamic Campus is a portfolio company of Atlantic Street Capital, a private equity firm that invests in lower middle market companies approaching their next phase of growth. It targets companies with between $4 million and $25 million of EBITDA that will benefit from capital investment and strategic and operational support.

"By bringing CampusWorks and Dynamic Campus together, we are building a scaled, best-in-class organization with enhanced capabilities and a stronger foundation for long-term growth to support the needs of the changing higher education landscape,” Atlantic Street Capital partner Paul Sun says in a statement.
