Arlington Capital Partners Announces the Acquisition of Intellectual Technology, Inc.

Through approximately 400 self-service kiosks in 11 states, ITI is transforming the interaction between government and their constituents as ITI’s kiosks become the preferred constituent portal. ITI’s highly recurring business model and public sector customer set is a perfect fit with Arlington’s investment mandate.”
Drew Nicholson, President of ITI, said, “We are a company dedicated to operational efficiency, and our collective vision for current and prospective customers is to leverage technology to address the repetitive and predictable tasks that DMVs must perform on a daily basis so that they can focus on complicated, more nuanced constituent interactions and adhering to federal legislation such as RealID. With a renewed focus on organic and inorganic investments, paired with Arlington’s experience investing in the government technology market, our organization is primed for tremendous growth in the coming years.”
Ben Ramundo, a Vice President at Arlington Capital, said, “In an environment where constituents expect better service from their state, local and municipal authorities, ITI’s solutions deliver the innovative technology that is enhancing the user experience at DMVs nationwide.
