Alcumus is a global market leader in technology-led risk management and compliance solutions that allow seamless interactions between enterprises and their contractors and suppliers. It offers a unique breadth of technology-enabled offerings which are critical to worker protection and compliance with regulations and international standards.

The Inflexion difference
Under Inflexion’s prior ownership from 2015-2022, we used our extensive M&A experience to support Alcumus to complete six strategic acquisitions and successfully expand internationally. Inflexion also supported the management team to build a scalable platform providing a unified solution to its customers, improve the value proposition, and strengthen the company’s ESG offering.
Inflexion is supporting Alcumus’s long-term growth plans which are backed by an ambitious management team, strong market position and growing global demand.
First investment results
The solutions Alcumus provide are trusted around the world, from our expanding member base of SMEs through to some of the most prominent, international enterprise brands. Our past work with Inflexion was extremely successful and we look forward to continuing to work together to accelerate the growth of Alcumus.
