Electrocomponents plc, parent company of UK-based RS Components and U.S.-based Allied Electronics and Automation, will acquire Manchester, UK-based IESA, which offers value-added outsourcing services to industrial customers, including MRO procurement and inventory management.
IESA’s services allow customers to improve efficiency and consolidate their indirect procurement vendor base via a cloud-enabled proprietary marketplace solution, MyMRO. The division will be run as a separate business unit within Electrocomponents, with IESA CEO Glenn Timms reporting to Electrocomponents Group CEO Lindsley Ruth.
