Utility services contractor Ipsum has acquired Wootton & Wootton, a Shrewsbury-based specialist in transmission and distribution engineering.

Andrew Cowan, CEO of Ipsum, said, “This acquisition represents a strategic step forward in our Power division, allowing us to combine our strengths and create a powerhouse of expertise. This move not only expands our market presence but also enables us to better serve our existing client base.”
