Open Spatial recently announced that it has completed the acquisition of the Munsys product and all associated trademarks and patents.
Importantly, Open Spatial now controls the sales and support businesses of Munsys in North America, Africa and Australia. Munsys in North America and Africa will soon commence trading under the Open Spatial brand.
Open Spatial was first established in Sydney in 2001, and today provides geospatial solutions to water utilities and government in the region. The Open Spatial Campus and Utilities Solutions deliver outcome-driven implementations to Australian infrastructure asset managers.
Open Spatial has distributed Munsys in Australia since 2001, and has complemented Munsys with solutions built in Sydney and targeted at providing total solutions to its customers. The acquisition of the Munsys product shows commitment to customers that have chosen Munsys over the past ten years.
The company plans to rebrand its products in line with its merged operations and in line with customer and market demands. The Solutions Development Centre for the group will be located in Sydney Australia, while Sales and Marketing headquarters will be relocated to the east coast of the United States.
Anthony Jahshan, CEO of the group commented: “Our successful merger has provided us with immediate access to markets in North America and Africa. This further strengthens our service and solutions capability to our existing customers in Australia and the Pacific.
“We intend to closely align the business with trusted technology partners in new markets, and successfully deliver proven solutions to customers in these regions.
“Our new developments will focus on integrating Building Information Models (BIM) through CAD into Asset Management and GIS. In addition, preparing customers for advanced network analysis, water loss and leak detection by drawing on live information from multiple sources in the field.”
More information on the company’s partnerships in these new regions will be announced in the coming weeks.
