I am editing on behalf of The Access Group as a representative of Babel. I will abide by Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines and submit changes via the Talk page rather than editing the article directly.
I am writing to propose updates to this article to correct outdated financial figures and add missing history.
I request that the current Infobox, Lead section (the text before the Table of Contents), and History section be removed and replaced with the Proposed Text below.
Reason for change: The current article displays outdated 2022 financial data (£618m revenue) and lacks significant coverage of the company's 2022 valuation. The proposed text updates the figures to 2025 (sourced to the Annual Report) and adds the £9.2bn valuation sourced to independent secondary sources (Sky News, The Times), which addresses the article's current "unclear notability" tag.

The Access Group is a UK-headquartered provider of business Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) products, primarily serving small and mid-sized organisations across commercial and non-profit sectors.[2] The company, founded in 1991, has its HQ in Loughborough, England.[3] It operates internationally, serving customers across Europe, the USA, and the Asia Pacific (APAC) region.[4]
As of 2025, The Access Group reported an annual revenue of £1.16 billion, employed 9,732 people and served 160,000 commercial, public sector and not-for-profit customers.[1]
Corporate History and Finance
The Access Group began a major expansion strategy following a management buy-out in 2011, characterised by a "buy-and-build" strategy involving numerous acquisitions.[5] By September 2021, the company had reported 16 consecutive years of profitable growth.[6]
In May and June 2022, The Access Group secured substantial investment from its principal shareholders, Hg and TA Associates, alongside a stake sale to the Singapore Government Investment Corporation (GIC).[2] [7] This transaction valued the company at £9.2 billion.[2] [7] Analysts noted that at this valuation, the company would have been ranked approximately 55th in the FTSE 100 had it been a public constituent.[2]
