In a letter to clients, DAK Solutions Dave Kenealy shared acquisition news,

“I am pleased to share that RMH Systems acquired DAK Solutions on August 29th, 2022.” Kenealy stated,  “For 28 years, DAK’s mission has been to provide our customers with the best possible service and solutions. This guiding principle fostered opportunities to design and install material handling projects in 45 states, Canada, and Mexico. It has been the key to our success and this principle will continue with RMH Systems. I have gotten to know the owners of RMH Systems over many years, and trust they will help grow DAK Solutions and sustain the great service you have been accustomed to with DAK. Their commitment to customers, strong core values and culture, industry expertise, and high-level project execution reflect what we have built at DAK over the last three decades.” he added.

For 60 years RMH has been headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, and expanded with locations in Minneapolis, Omaha, and Kansas City. RMH Systems, a third-generation, family-owned company, is the Midwest’s material handling, packaging, and robotics systems integrator, a true turnkey and one-stop-shop solutions provider. RMH Systems is a larger organization that will bring additional engineering capabilities and a broader product portfolio to the DAK Solutions customer base; including systems engineering, robotics, packaging, cranes, scales, and much more!

“The DAK Solutions Team would like to thank you for your continued business and assure you, that your current point of contact at DAK will not change. We will continue to provide the high caliber of service and solutions you have come to expect from us. We look forward to introducing you to RMH Systems and its enhanced capabilities over the next few months,” said Dave Kenealy.

Chad Howard, a member of the ownership family, will move to Chicago to be the General Manager for DAK Solutions. I plan on staying aboard to contribute in a sales and engineering capacity for the foreseeable future.
