US construction software provider 4019 Bentley Systems has acquired UK-based C3global, a provider of web-based Amulet software for operational analytics for an undisclosed sum.
Amulet is a data collection validation, analysis and modelling system used by many industries around the world to manage mission-critical activities. The system is used by organisations that generate large amounts of data, such as in the sectors of water and wastewater, oil and gas, energy production and transmission, retailing, communications, as well as providers of maintenance to infrastructure works.
One of Amulet’s characteristics is its ability to communicate with virtually any device or application that can communicate with the outside world. AssetWise Amulet applies predictive and prescriptive analytics that are easily configurable at industrial scale to leverage just-in-time data for improved operational efficiencies.
Bentley said its AssetWise platform, which serves configuration management, asset health monitoring, inspection, maintenance and compliance for infrastructure assets, can now deliver additional actionable insights as asset performance management is extended, through AssetWise Amulet, for asset performance modeling.
Users of C3global software include Babcock, BP, Chevron, Danfoss, Emerson, MWH, National Grid, South Australian Water and Total. The purchase is another move to enhance Bentley Systems Building Information Modeling (BIM) software for asset management, said Bentley chief executive Greg Bentley.
“Our acquisition of Amulet enables another cumulative BIM advancement, beyond leveraging design modeling, construction modeling and reality modeling, for enhancing infrastructure asset performance,” said Bentley. “With our AssetWise APM offering, we already provide comprehensive solutions for reliability-centered maintenance and risk-based inspection.
“By configuring Amulet’s proven, industrial-strength operational analytics with our market-leading engineering analysis portfolio, optioneering can be extended through asset performance modeling for just-in-time operational decisions, which can now predictively consider, beyond engineering, the relevant environmental and economic context,” he said.
Bentley, set up in 1984 and based in Exton in the US state of Pennsylvania, had sales in 2013 of around US$593 million. C3global was set up in 1996 as a private company. Moving over with the acquisition will be co-founder and director Neil Rothwell, co-founder and director Pete Kelly and chief executive David Smith.
Technology Holdings advised C3global on the transaction.
