"We are excited about what this next chapter holds," BMSS CEO and founding member Don Murphy said in a statement. "Avizo's team, culture and client-first approach align strongly with BMSS, and we look forward to continuing to serve clients with the same personal attention while offering even greater resources and capabilities."
