The Global Draw has acquired field-based maintenance specialist ADS Group/Technology and Gaming.


The acquisition of ADS/T and G is intended to strengthen The Global Draw’s existing field-based service support team and dedicated help desk across the UK.
ADS/T and G was founded in 2003 and is a field-based service specialist currently working with many of the betting shops, pubs, arcades and bingo clubs in the UK. The business has a dedicated highly skilled team of field-based engineers providing nationwide services to its customers, including audio visual, EPOS, PAT testing, networking installation and maintenance.
“We are delighted with this latest acquisition,” said Phil Horne, managing director at The Global Draw. “The addition of the ADS/T and G team’s expertise to our already established field-based operations will further strengthen our reputation in this area.
“Our expanded team will be able to provide a broader range of services for our customer base, while continuing to support and service our terminals and conduct regular maintenance, all managed through The Global Draw. The acquisition also enables our sister companies, Barcrest and Games Media, to offer even more substantial and efficient field-based service to new and existing customers.”
Justin Helden, founder of ADS/T and G, described it as an “exciting development” for the business.
