365 Response pursued an organic and acquisitive growth strategy, accelerated by growth capital and support from BGF. Following our initial investment in 2020, we also:
- Provided additional funding, to back its bolt-on acquisitions of KL2 and FlexiRoute
- Introduced the company to its Non-Executive Chair, Andy McRae (the former-CEO of Coutts Consulting, Managing Director of Hays, and Chair of Red Commerce, SR Group and Phaidon)
- Aided in expanding the company’s workforce, to bolster its sales, operations, and development teams
“We needed a partner like BGF that could move rapidly with us; someone who could sit on the board with a strong, external voice, and great strategic connections with a whole host of businesses, across different sectors.”

CEO of 365 Response
During our two-year partnership, 365 Response grew its headcount by 50%, successfully acquired two transport providers, and achieved annual growth of 40%. In 2022, the business was acquired by RLDatix, a specialist in governance, risk and compliance and workforce management systems for the healthcare sector.
