March 15, 2023 Critical Power Suppliers for Mfg. Industry Merge

The combined company, called ZAVTEK expands geographic reach, product and service offerings for manufacturers nationwide.

Cincinnati, OH – Pacific Northwest-based Critical Power Solutions Inc. (CPSI) and EDI Power Services (EDI), of Ohio, today jointly announced the two companies have merged to become ZAVTEK, according to ZAVTEK President Lee Moss.

Both companies have served the industrial and technology manufacturing industries for more than three decades.

“This is a merger of two long‐tenured institutions in the critical power space, which is essential to many sectors in manufacturing,” Moss said. “Together we have grown and have seen the need for greater capacity to provide more reliable electrical power nationwide, which was the impetus for the merger.”

While nothing has changed for existing CPSI and EDI customers and vendors except the name and some accounting details, in the long term the combined teams will be able to provide additional services that existing industrial customers didn’t have access to before. 

“We have always had customer and vendor overlap, so the one brand will simplify this for customers and vendors, who will now partner with just one company,” Moss said.

ZAVTEK headquarters are being consolidated in Ohio with a West Coast executive office. The merger will simply create a larger, nationwide footprint. The following will remain the same or expand:

• Consistency in processes and reporting to all CPSI and EDI customers
• The merged company will still provide critical power solutions and will benefit from an expanded access to more leading technology providers now
• ZAVTEK will continue to be a multivendor service partner across the country, providing 24/7 emergency and preventative support services.
• The larger footprint will enable ZAVTEK to offer customers a deep bench of experts with a wide array of technical skills
• All current contracts and services remain in place with the name change
