Accruent, the leading provider of Enterprise Location Management (ELM) solutions, announced today that it has acquired Siterra Corporation.
Siterra is the preeminent SaaS-based real estate and facilities solution in the market and has a reputation for excellence in customer service. Siterra solutions are at work at over 500,000 locations across nearly 100 organizations in the wireless communications, renewable energy, retail, and corporate real estate industries. Siterra’s solutions are utilized to manage approximately 60 percent of the cell towers in the United States. The combined entity provides unparalleled solution choice for customers looking for location management software.
“We welcome the Siterra team and their outstanding customers to the Accruent family,” said Mark Friedman, chief executive officer of Accruent. “Organizations planning next generation real estate and facilities deployments are looking for solutions that fit the profile of their particular industry, do not require heavy customization and pay for themselves out of the savings they generate. Siterra perfectly meets this description. The addition of Siterra to our portfolio means that we can offer customers in any industry the ideal enterprise location management solution in their preferred delivery method – from SaaS to on-premise solutions.”
Accruent provides fully-integrated, end-to-end ELM solutions that enable organizations to develop, administer and operate their property portfolios as a performance advantage. Accruent’s solutions facilitate the establishment of a single ‘system of record’ for all information related to their locations by replacing fragmented sources and systems. When coupled with process management and advanced business intelligence, Accruent’s solutions deliver organizations measurable value through cost savings, productivity improvements and portfolio optimization.
Siterra’s CEO, Bernard Fried, said, “Accruent and Siterra share a common vision for the ELM market. We are enthusiastically looking forward to joining Accruent because, together, we have the scale and resources to serve the needs of the entire market. I am confident that this integration will increase the value that Accruent and Siterra customers receive from our combined solution set.”
