Outlook
What happens next?
Deft’s journey doesn’t end with the acquisition. Summit is investing in Deft because we share a vision for the future.
Summit’s goal is to amplify the way Deft already operates — the close-knit relationships we share with clients, our hands-on approach, and our unwavering commitment to high-performance infrastructure.
Over the next few months, we’ll begin the process of integrating core aspects of the two companies. For Deft customers, it’s business as usual. You will continue working with your existing account reps and log into the same customer portal.
