Little Chute, WI - September 19, 2022 – Heartland Business Systems, LLC (HBS), a leading technology integration provider, has partnered with A&M Capital Opportunities (AMCO), the growth team at A&M Capital, a multi-strategy private equity investment firm. AMCO’s investment will support HBS’s long-term growth initiatives. President Peter Helander will continue to manage HBS and expand the brand he has built and promoted over the past 28 years.

Headquartered in Little Chute, WI, HBS specializes in consulting, infrastructure, business automation, and networking solutions. HBS employs over 300 business consultants, technical engineers, and solution consultants throughout the Midwest who provide product and services to customers within the education, government, healthcare, and corporate markets. HBS partners with some of the largest, best-in-class technology manufacturers in the world.

“In today’s hyper-competitive marketplace, having the resources to grow is an invaluable edge. We went through a careful evaluation process to select a growth partner with a common set of core values and a shared vision. AMCO is that partner and I could not be more excited about the future,” said Peter Helander, President of Heartland Business Systems, LLC. “AMCO aligns with HBS’s future growth objectives and vision of the IT industry. This growth partnership is a testament to decades of work that each team member contributed to and should be proud of.”

HBS is enthusiastic about the opportunities partnering with AMCO will bring. This partnership will allow HBS to continue to offer the highest level of technical expertise across the Midwest and beyond as the company continues to grow. We remain committed to supporting our clients and helping them achieve their highest potential.

About Heartland Business Systems
The HBS roots date back to the late 1980s, with Peter Helander creating label software for the grocery and meat packing industries at Alferi Communications. Demand for the company’s software and technology expertise led to Alferi Communications being rebranded as Heartland Business Systems and acquired by Peter Helander in 1994. Introduce the proliferation of the World Wide Web and technology, HBS grew in tandem. In 2004, the company added a division focused on custom programming, website development, business intelligence, and mobile development. In subsequent years, HBS has enjoyed continued growth and success helping our clients reach their full potential. HBS has grown from a single office in Northeast Wisconsin to ten locations throughout the Midwest, but our personalized service and commitment to our clients remains the same. We are proud to support clients of all sizes in many industries ranging from healthcare and manufacturing to retail, government, education, and commercial enterprise. The unique combination of strong industry history and top tier technical talent makes HBS a dependable, knowledgeable, and innovative partner.
