Austin, Texas, January 2, 2024 – Renaissance Systems, Inc., RSI, a nationwide provider of advanced IT, cybersecurity, and software solutions for small and mid-enterprise clients, announces today the acquisition of Folkerson Communications, a well-known name in Texas for voice communication and networking services, and a top nationwide producer with NEC.

This strategic acquisition represents a significant milestone for RSI as it expands its portfolio and strengthens its position as a comprehensive technology solutions provider. With the addition of Folkerson Communications, RSI not only gains a managed voice division, but it also strengthens its market presence geographically, and gains more than 120 years of combined telecom and IT experience from the fully-retained staff of Folkerson Communication employees.

“Folkerson Communications has built a solid reputation for delivering high-quality voice and professional services, making it a natural fit within the RSI family. With little overlap of service offerings, our organizations will leverage one-another’s expertise to go deeper within
accounts,” commented RSI CEO, David Burgeson.

Notable in this acquisition will be the appointment of Greg Folkerson, current owner and CEO of Folkerson Communications, to the position of Chief Operating Officer for RSI. In 1997, Folkerson started Folkerson Communications, and with an intense focus on customer service and flawless voice installs, he developed the organization into a leading telecom solutions provider in Texas. “The next chapter for Folkerson Communications and its clients needed to include strategic technology planning, advanced cybersecurity services and a viable landing spot for the Folkerson Communications team of experts,” commented Folkerson. “The growth trajectory of RSI, coupled with the collaboration efforts between our organizations, made this a reality.”

“We are committed to ensuring a seamless transition for Folkerson Communications’ clients” added Burgeson. “Our teams are already working closely to integrate operations and uphold the high standards of service both companies are known for. This acquisition reflects RSI’s ongoing dedication to innovation, growth, and delivering unparalleled value to our clients. We look forward to the opportunities this collaboration will bring and are excited about the future.”
