Founders return to operational leadership at Integris to drive next phase of innovation

Integris, a Cranbury-based provider of future-ready managed IT services, recently announced a significant leadership transition with the return of its original architects to day-to-day operations. Rashaad Bajwa has been appointed chief executive officer, while Kevin Blake assumes the role of president, effective March 16.

Bajwa, the founder of Integris, will also maintain his position as executive chairman of the Board. Blake, the founder and former CEO of Tech MD—which Integris acquired in 2025—previously served as the company’s executive adviser and head of corporate development.

The reappointment of Bajwa and Blake signals a strategic pivot toward reinforcing the company’s “people-first” culture and accelerating its innovative service offerings. Both leaders bring a deep historical understanding of the firm combined with a shared entrepreneurial mindset.

“I am honored to be able to return to the CEO role for Integris and support this exceptional team,” Bajwa said. “We are focused on empowering our people, delivering greater value to our customers, and continuing to build a company positioned for success.”

Integris, which is backed by OMERS Private Equity, has been a consistent fixture on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies. The firm differentiates itself by moving beyond traditional IT “troubleshooting” to provide comprehensive digital maturity roadmaps, including cybersecurity, cloud optimization, and regulatory compliance.

Geoff Bird, co-head of OMERS Private Equity Buyouts and an Integris board member, noted that the founders’ return positions the company to build on its current momentum. “Their deep understanding of the company’s history and their role in shaping its strategy position Integris to… accelerate into the future,” Bird stated.

Under the renewed leadership of Bajwa and Blake, Integris has outlined several key pillars for its next chapter:

  • Customer Experience: Delivering a differentiated and seamless service model.
  • Core Expansion: Strengthening and broadening the company’s managed service portfolio.
  • Digital Maturity: Transforming SMBs into “digital powerhouses” through strategic IT roadmapping.
  • Workforce Investment: Continuing significant investment in internal talent and capabilities.
