COSOL says the acquisition of Clarita expands its EAM and digital solutions portfolio to now include GIS (Geographic Information System) data management services and EAM as a Service (EAMaaS) proprietary digital SaaS solution powered by IBM Maximo - a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for EAM software platforms.

COSOL says the EAMaaS solution is the only single ‘as a service’ solution that combines asset management, engineering document management and workforce mobility with GIS in its DNA.

According to COSOL, the combination of COSOL and Clarita will provide expanded opportunities for its Enterprise Data Asset Management (EDAM) services and proprietary digital solutions, including solutioning COSOL RPConnect to the broader IBM Maximo client base to accelerate clients digital transformation journey, “unlocking the business potential of their assets”.

COSOL Group CEO, Scott McGowan said, “The acquisition of Clarita delivers a natural extension to COSOL’s digital and data solutions, enhancing and extending our capabilities across a broader range of enterprise systems. We already have significant solution portfolios for Hitachi Ellipse and SAP, and we now welcome IBM Maximo to that portfolio.”

“COSOL and Clarita share a common goal to drive efficiencies and deliver quantifiable business improvements for asset intensive organisations for whom return on invested capital and maximising the operation and exploitation of their current investments is of paramount importance.”

Clarita Solutions CEO, Annette Henry said, “I’m delighted Clarita has the opportunity to become part of the COSOL Group. Joining forces will deliver substantial benefits for our clients, as we create seamless enterprise solutions to unlock new and exciting opportunities across the asset information ecosystem.

“Together our organisations provide a compelling offering to support mission critical business decision making and improved operations for asset intensive organisations”.
