11 SoftwareONE
Revenue: £380m (+27%)
Net profit: NA Staff: 200
Although SoftwareONE's most recently filed UK accounts (covering calendar 2019) show revenue of £169m, we understand the software giant's local turnover now stands at around £380m following its acquisition and integration of arch-rival Comparex. The Switzerland-based firm acquired Nottingham SAP HANA consultancy Centiq in October as part of a global push to add SAP cloud skills. Globally, SIX Swiss Exchange-listed SoftwareONE turned over CHF 7.9bn (£6.3bn) in 2020 (flat, when adjusted for local currencies).
Covid impact
SoftwareONE returned to "strong levels of growth" in its H1 2021, which CEO Dieter Schlosser chalked up to Covid "spurring" cloud-first, digital transformation spending.
