As demand for secure and compliant IT services continues to grow, Convergence Networks has taken a strategic step to strengthen its regional footprint. The company has announced the acquisition of Certinet Systems, a move that enhances its capabilities across the Pacific Northwest while expanding support for organizations operating in highly regulated industries.
With cyber threats intensifying and regulatory requirements becoming more complex, industries such as manufacturing, local government, and the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) are increasingly prioritizing resilient and compliant IT environments. Therefore, this acquisition positions Convergence Networks to better address these evolving needs by combining local expertise with advanced cybersecurity capabilities.
Strengthening a People-First IT Approach
Notably, Certinet Systems, founded by Bryant Kyger, has built a strong reputation in Central and Eastern Washington through its commitment to service excellence and close client relationships. As a veteran-owned company, it has consistently delivered reliable IT services tailored to the needs of regional businesses and public sector organizations.
Moreover, Certinet brings valuable experience across managed IT services, cybersecurity, cloud solutions, and compliance. Its work with government-linked organizations and defense supply chains complements Convergence Networks’ ongoing investments in cybersecurity frameworks, including its Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) practice.
“At Convergence Networks, we believe technology should support people and businesses in a practical, measurable way,” said Chris Remy, CEO of Convergence Networks. “Certinet Systems has built a strong business by focusing on service quality, integrity, and local leadership. That alignment made this a natural fit. Together, we are expanding our ability to support organizations with increasing security and compliance requirements, while continuing to invest in our people.”
“Certinet was built to provide a higher standard of service for businesses in our region,” said Bryant Kyger, Founder of Certinet Systems. “Joining Convergence Networks allows us to maintain that local focus while giving our clients access to deeper cybersecurity and compliance expertise, broader resources and long-term stability. It also creates new opportunities for our team as part of a larger organization that is investing in a future of secure and compliant IT.”
Delivering Immediate Value to Clients
Furthermore, the integration of both companies is expected to deliver immediate and tangible benefits to clients across the region. Importantly, Certinet Systems will continue operating with its existing local leadership, ensuring continuity and preserving long-standing customer relationships. Bryant Kyger will also remain actively involved in a regional leadership role, reinforcing the company’s commitment to its community.
At the same time, clients will gain access to expanded cybersecurity and compliance services, enhanced after-hours support, and stronger vendor partnerships. In addition, organizations will benefit from Convergence Networks’ advanced operational platforms and automation capabilities, which are designed to improve efficiency and service delivery.
Enhancing Visibility and Regional Growth
Equally important, the acquisition introduces a more modern and transparent client experience. Through Convergence Networks’ Client Portal, organizations can manage IT services more effectively, access real-time insights, and gain improved visibility into their technology environments.
Meanwhile, this move significantly expands Convergence Networks’ presence across the Pacific Northwest. By combining regional expertise with scalable IT solutions, the company is well-positioned to support businesses navigating complex cybersecurity and compliance landscapes.
Ultimately, the acquisition reflects a broader industry trend where managed service providers are consolidating capabilities to deliver more comprehensive, secure, and resilient IT solutions. By integrating Certinet Systems into its operations, Convergence Networks is strengthening its ability to meet the growing demands of modern enterprises while maintaining a strong local connection.
