The acquisition of Innovatia Accelerator by Hexagon is timely and will further support Hexagon PPM’s business as well as product strategy to support customers to digitally transform their activities for maintenance, turnarounds, process safety management and safe work processes (Innovatia Accelerator like some of the other Hexagon acquisitions will sit within the Hexagon PPM division). AcceleratorKMS aims to automate most of these processes, reducing errors and increasing both the quantity and the utility of data collected through artificial intelligence by auto-filling data where similar content has been created previously. Operations and maintenance (O&M) management has seen slower adoption of automation due to greater complexity of human social systems and the unstructured nature of human-authored paper-based form data. Innovatia Accelerator’s flagship solution AcceleratorKMS connected worker solution offers capabilities for high-risk operational procedure management, manage work processes and deliver training content to frontline workers. With more than 170 acquisitions in the past 21 years, Hexagon is a dominant player in industrial data capture, analysis, visualisation and automation markets.Įarlier this month, Hexagon acquired Innovatia Accelerator, the Canadian-headquartered knowledge management system provider of critical operational content to frontline workers. Sweden-headquartered Hexagon has been busy acquiring dozens of data and asset management software suppliers.
