TXP has acquired Vigil, an AWS Select Tier Services Partner, as part of its strategy to develop its digital transformation business in the UK. This move aims to strengthen TXP's consulting, development, and resourcing solutions, particularly catering to its diversified clientele.
Vigil is recognised for its expertise in AWS-based cloud transformation, software engineering, and tech advisory services. These competencies complement TXP’s existing cloud capabilities, seeking to enable an enhanced service delivery.
With a technology team of nearly 100 professionals primarily based in Portugal and Brazil, Vigil offers a broad selection of clients including ITV, Trainline, Convex, and DC Thomson Group. Their software engineering is positioned to extend TXP's nearshore and offshore offerings, and aims to support the company's strategy of delivering cost-effective yet quality-rich solutions.
John Antunes, CEO at TXP, remarked how Vigil's AWS proficiencies harmonise with TXP’s Microsoft capabilities and add to TXP’s technical capabilities and support client digital transformation efforts.
Phil Wright, CEO of Vigil, and his senior management aim to integrate with TXP's team and Aliter to drive ambitious growth plans. Phil Wright expressed enthusiasm about this collaborative venture, emphasising their shared focus on bespoke solutions and innovation.
This acquisition aligns with Aliter Capital’s strategy to expand its presence in the UK digital transformation market. Aliter is focused on expanding TXP with further acquisitions that add relevant skills and capabilities, backed by organic growth. Vigil is the fourth milestone in The Group's expansion, following the procurement of Gen modernisation specialist Metatech in May 2025.
