Announcing our acquisition of Swifton Solutions: Expanding our capabilities in .NET and Azure

We're thrilled to share some exciting news with you — we have officially acquired Swifton Solutions, a move that significantly expands our capabilities and deepens our commitment to delivering cutting-edge technology solutions.

Swifton Solutions brings a strong track record of expertise in .NET and Azure environments, aligning perfectly with our core focus areas: digital transformation, data integration, and artificial intelligence. With their deep experience across the Microsoft technology stack, this acquisition strengthens our ability to design and deliver scalable, secure, and high-performance solutions tailored to the needs of Local Authorities.

Importantly, both our teams share a strong commitment to using non-proprietary, open architecture technologies wherever possible. This allows us to develop leaner, more maintainable applications that reduce overheads, avoid vendor lock-in, and ultimately deliver better long-term value for the public sector.

Swifton will continue to operate with its own dedicated team of developers, focusing on private sector clients while bringing fresh technical capabilities into our broader offering.

Their core solutions include:

• Custom CRM Systems
• ERP Integration
• Health & Safety Assessment Platforms
• Bespoke Software Development

We see this as a powerful step forward — giving us the flexibility to support more complex and cost-conscious public sector projects, without compromising on innovation or quality.

If you'd like to learn more or explore how these enhanced capabilities can benefit your organisation, we invite you to visit Swifton's website or get in touch to set up a conversation.

Thank you for your continued trust and partnership.

The Rapid team.
