Lake Business and FIT Technologies Partner to Integrate Workplace Technology, Managed IT and Cybersecurity Services

Lake Business, a family-owned Northeast Ohio provider of workplace technology and managed services, and FIT Technologies, a 100% employee-owned managed IT services provider, today announced a strategic co-branded partnership designed to expand the technology solutions and support available to clients of both organizations.

As organizations navigate increasing cybersecurity risks, rapid advances in artificial intelligence, evolving workplace technology needs and growing pressure to do more with fewer internal resources, Lake Business and FIT are partnering to offer a simpler, more coordinated approach to technology planning, implementation and support.

Through the partnership, Lake Business and FIT will coordinate market development, sales and service delivery across managed print solutions, office technology, managed IT, cybersecurity, network services, managed internet services and related project work. Customer-facing solutions may be presented as “Delivered in partnership by Lake Business and FIT Technologies.”

The partnership combines Lake Business’ long-standing customer relationships, managed print and workplace technology expertise, local service model and executive-level account engagement with FIT’s scale and depth in managed IT, cybersecurity, infrastructure modernization and technical support. Teams from both companies will jointly assess opportunities and align the right capabilities with each customer’s operational priorities, risk profile and growth plans.

Both organizations will continue to operate independently while working together to provide a seamless experience for shared clients. Coordinated account management, joint planning and executive oversight will help preserve the responsive support, clear accountability and trusted relationships customers expect.

For Lake Business, the partnership supports the company’s continued evolution from office equipment and managed print into a broader workplace technology and services partner. For FIT, it expands the organization’s ability to bring enterprise-grade managed IT, cybersecurity and network capabilities to more organizations through a trusted regional relationship. Together, the companies expect to bring solutions to market more effectively and help customers manage technology complexity through fewer, more accountable partners.
