Endless sells Liberata to OSI in £43m deal

Under Endless's tenure, the business has undertaken an acquisitive growth strategy. In October 2013, Liberata acquired the business and assets of a Coventry-based group comprising Trinity Expert System, Eurodata and TES Group, before bolting on Knowledge Hub the following month.

In 2014, Endless then acquired Trustmarque in a tertiary buyout from Dunedin, merged it with Trinity and consolidated the new division within the Liberata group.

The sale to OSI comes two months after Liberata sold its Trustmarque Solutions division to Capita for £57m.

Previous funding
Endless acquired a majority stake in Liberata from General Atlantic Partners in January 2011 in a deal valued at £23m. The GP invested £20m to support the company's growth.

Founded in 1975 and headquartered in London, Liberata provides IT services and software related to business processes and transactions. It has 120 public sector clients including the Ministry of Justice and London Borough of Bromley. The company's services include CapacityGrid and Liberata Automation Services.
