Teku were pivotal to Boldyn Networks M&A integration success, proving to be an exceptional partner for complex programmes. This integration had unique challenges involving a complex technical environment and critical milestones that could not be missed. Partnering with Teku meant having a team that could work across time zones and pivot with absolute flexibility to ensure zero disruption whilst meeting important deadlines. Success in these scenarios depends on trusted partners who deliver sustainable value for our customers and shareholders. Teku has been that assurance as an extension of the Boldyn Networks Global Digital & Tech team, providing confidence and capability at every step.

Our experience with Teku was exceptional. Their dynamic and highly skilled team delivered a complex technology integration with precision, meeting Boldyn's ambitious standards. We couldn’t have asked for a more capable or collaborative partner.

Overview

Boldyn Networks (Boldyn), one of the largest neutral host and leading private networks providers in the world, expanded its market footprint through the acquisition of Apogee Networks (Apogee), the leading provider of on-campus connectivity infrastructure in the US Higher Education (HED) industry. To navigate this organisation shift, Teku was engaged to lead the technical integration of Boldyn’s Modern Workplace, Cloud, and Identity platforms.

The Challenge

Boldyn set out to rapidly integrate Apogee, now known as Boldyn Higher Education (HED), while minimising operational disruption and establishing a scalable foundation for future technology optimisation. To deliver on this objective, Teku mobilised a specialised team to identify key integration points and interdependencies.

This strategic move introduced a series of technical integration challenges, including a globally distributed delivery team spanning the US, UK, and Australia, with a critical need to maintain uninterrupted business operations. Teku worked with key stakeholders from Boldyn to align priorities, clarify objectives, and co-develop a phased integration roadmap that would deliver measurable outcomes.

Our Approach

Teku’s proven integration strategy focuses on expedited system unification. The initial phase prioritised the consolidation of identities, collaboration tools and end-user devices of the acquired business. More than 300 employees were seamlessly onboarded to Boldyn’s enterprise platforms.

The next phase focused on retiring legacy environments and optimising Boldyn’s technology landscape to support long-term efficiency and scalability. Software development capabilities were enhanced through the consolidation of code repositories, providing enterprise features and a strengthened security posture by standardising code management practices.

Outcome

The successful integration enabled Boldyn to meet critical deadlines while minimising impacts to business operations. By consolidating platforms, employees gained seamless access to shared tools and resources, enabling greater collaboration and productivity across the organisation. Despite an ambitious timeline, the integration was successfully delivered in six months – demonstrating the team’s agility and focus.

300+ users onboarded
600+ end-user devices deployed
30TB+ of Microsoft 365 and Dropbox data migrated
5 disparate code management platforms & 136 repositories consolidated
15 Enterprise Applications integrated

The technical integration project of Apogee under Boldyn Networks follows another successful partnership between Boldyn Networks and Teku that involved a complex integration of six acquired companies under a single Boldyn brand.

This project is a great example of what can be achieved through strong partnership and a shared purpose. Working alongside Boldyn’s team, we were able to deliver a seamless integration that not only met the technical objectives but also laid the foundation for long-term growth. It’s been a privilege to support such a forward-thinking organisation.
