Technology Management Concepts, a Microsoft-focused consulting firm based in El Segundo, California, has acquired The TM Group, an ERP and CRM consulting firm headquartered in Novi, Michigan. The deal adds additional depth in Microsoft ERP and CRM work and broadens Technology Management Concepts’ capabilities across Power Platform and cloud services, with an emphasis on supporting customers as they adopt modern data, automation, and AI solutions. Financial terms were not disclosed.
The combination brings together two long-standing Microsoft Applications specialists with decades of experience supporting core financial and operational systems. Technology Management Concepts said it plans to expand its bench by integrating The TM Group’s ERP expertise and customer relationships, positioning the combined organization to deliver broader Microsoft stack modernization programs that connect ERP, CRM, and Power Platform transformation with the underlying data, security, and cloud foundations needed for AI and automation.
Leadership framed the acquisition as part of a deliberate strategy to build a next-generation Microsoft partner model that blends governance, industry experience, and operational rigor with emerging competencies in data and reporting, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and AI. Over the next one to two years, the company expects to invest in strengthening governance and delivery consistency across engagements, add complementary services, and maintain what it describes as a boutique, highly engaged delivery approach rather than scaling into a large corporate consulting firm.
Technology Management Concepts was founded in 1987. The TM Group was founded in 1984.
