Blue Mountain has stated that the acquisition of CompuCal will enable the organisation to strengthen its presence across key European markets.
Blue Mountain, a US enterprise asset management (EAM) software provider for the life sciences sector, has today (22 April) announced the acquisition of Cork-based CompuCal Calibration Solutions, which provides calibration and maintenance management software across Europe.
Established in 1989 and headquartered in Pennsylvania, Blue Mountain supports end-to-end GMP asset management. The organisation had a recent cash injection via an investment from Five Arrows, the alternative assets arm of Rothschild & Co.
Located at Little Island, Cork, CompuCal has been in operation since 1980 and is a calibration software development company that works with a range of industries, including life sciences, pharmaceuticals, food and drink, oil and gas, and power generation.
Blue Mountain has stated that the acquisition of CompuCal will enable the organisation to strengthen its presence across key European markets, as Blue Mountain aims to leverage CompuCal’s established customer base across Ireland, the UK and broader European regions.
Commenting on the news of the acquisition, David H Rode, the CEO of Blue Mountain, said: “This acquisition is a major step forward in expanding our global footprint and strengthening our ability to serve life sciences manufacturers wherever they operate.
“CompuCal brings a highly respected team, deep calibration expertise and a strong presence across Europe. Together, we are building a truly global organisation with the local knowledge and capabilities our customers expect.”
Donal Sullivan, the CEO of CompuCal, added: “Joining Blue Mountain is an exciting opportunity for our team and our customers. We have built CompuCal around proven expertise in calibration and a strong commitment to customer success.
“As part of Blue Mountain, with whom we share core values, we can extend that expertise to a broader global audience while continuing to deliver the high level of service our European customers rely on.”
