The combination, which will continue to operate under the Inova Payroll brand, is now positioned for accelerated growth and expansion into the future.

"This transaction brings together two complementary businesses, along with a significant capital investment to fund our expanding services and national footprint," said Farsheed Ferdowsi, Inova Payroll's founder, President and CEO. "I am very excited to begin this next chapter by adding the talented Payroll Strategies team to Inova.
