ABEC Advanced Infrastructure (Pty) Limited is the new name of the company formerly known as Dimension Data Advanced Infrastructure (Pty) Limited. After a rigorous 18-month bid process, African Business Expansions and Consulting (Pty) Limited (ABEC), through a management buy-out, is proud to announce its successful acquisition of ABEC Advanced Infrastructure, a leading provider of specialised IT infrastructure solutions and services. With a renewed focus and commitment to delivering foundational IT infrastructure solutions and services across South Africa, this pivotal move marks a new chapter in the company’s history.
Starting as a Dimension Data line of business in 1983, ABEC Advanced Infrastructure has been a cornerstone in the South African IT industry for more than 40 years, dedicated to reducing the complexity of data centre and facilities infrastructure, structured cabling, and integrated security systems. This successful acquisition demonstrates the resilience, deep-rooted expertise, and visionary leadership of the team led by Devon Naude, Conrad Kock, Marius Gerneke, Lawrence Rae, and Gareth Botha.
“Our 40-year heritage equips us with a unique blend of global best practices and local market understanding,” said Conrad Kock, Chief Executive Officer at ABEC Advanced Infrastructure. “As we look ahead, we are leveraging the invaluable experiences and insights gained from our time within Dimension Data to propel us into a new era of innovation and growth.”
Engineered Simplicity, Built on Trust
“As we move into the future, consolidating ‘fit-for-use’ internal IT systems and platforms to optimise operational efficiencies, we remain dedicated to client-centric solutions that drive quality and efficacy for our clients,” added Marius Gerneke, Chief Operations Officer. “This change empowers us to drive technological transformation, enhancing our agility and responsiveness to meet client needs effectively.”
As ABEC Advanced Infrastructure embarks on this exciting journey, the company looks forward to deepening its relationships with clients and partners. With a team of over 115 seasoned professionals, operating across five regions—Western Cape, Eastern Cape, KZN, and a Bloemfontein satellite office into the Northern Cape—supported by a national service desk, ABEC Advanced Infrastructure is well-equipped to deliver the highest quality end-to-end solutions and services across data centre and facilities infrastructure, structured cabling, and integrated security systems.
“This new chapter not only signifies our independence but also reinforces our commitment to the South African market,” said Devon Naude, Regional Executive. “We are dedicated to contributing to the country’s technological advancement and economic growth, ensuring our clients receive unparalleled service and support.”
