What happened
Framewerx Inc., an IT consulting and managed services provider based in Edmonton, Alberta, acquired AD Micro Technology Inc., SiliconANGLE reported on August 6, 2026. Financial terms were not disclosed.
AD Micro was founded in 1992 and is based in Richmond, British Columbia. It provides IT support, networking, security, backup and cloud services, and also manages printers and copiers for customers in Greater Vancouver. AD Micro will keep its brand for now. Framewerx plans to bring AD Micro's staff into the parent company by the end of the year, which it says will increase its headcount by 30%.
Framewerx sells managed IT, cloud hosting and cybersecurity to small and mid-sized organizations, and most of its business has come from Alberta. The deal gives it a second regional base on the West Coast. In June 2026 it launched Neuralwerx, an AI help desk and security platform for MSPs and mid-market companies, and it plans to pair AD Micro's operations with that platform. Framewerx CEO Dan Reid called the deal "another important step in executing our long-term vision."
What it means for the books
This is a common pattern in smaller MSP deals: the acquired brand stays for a period while staff, tools and processes move over in stages. During that period the buyer often runs two sets of client contracts, two billing setups and sometimes two PSA instances. Mapping both charts of accounts to a single reporting structure early helps the combined business compare margins by service line.
Print and copier management, which AD Micro offers, usually has its own billing pattern, with lease or per-page charges that differ from per-user managed services. Keeping that revenue and its costs in separate accounts makes it easier to see how each line performs after integration.
For a 30% headcount increase, payroll setup, benefit plans and any accrued vacation balances carried over from the seller are worth reconciling at the first close after staff move.
