The deal brings 37 onshore specialists into the company, adding data strategy, governance, engineering, and cloud data platform expertise. Continuus helps clients develop enterprise data strategies, establish governance frameworks, and deliver large-scale cloud data transformation and engineering programs.

The acquisition adds to Acuity Analytics' presence in the United States, its largest market, and pairs the onshore team with the company's global delivery network. Acuity Analytics is the trading name of Acuity Knowledge Partners, majority-owned by funds advised by Permira since January 2023, with Equistone holding a minority stake.

In 2024, the company acquired PPA Group, adding technology-enabled data capabilities and machine learning expertise within commercial lending.
