AFRY: acquires software company Zert AB
Zert AB develops web-based software products and software enhanced services in the areas of occupational health and safety, risk management and technical documentation.
AFRY sees good potential in offering these products to a wider range of customers and in increasing the revenue stream going forward. Environment, health and safety are a top priority in company programs and a pillar of sustainability. The market needs for experts and digitization in this field are increasing, driven by the sustainable transition with new technologies and often more complex systems and products.
By acquiring Zert, AFRY will allow access to Zert’s digital products and services to many new customers, thereby allowing the company to move upmarket from its current size; and also transforming more consulting services into software-enhanced services, combining digital tools with expert advice.
“Successful and effective risk management requires tools built into the business, and we are impressed with Zert and the value they create through their products. Together we are becoming a force in the digitalization of security and risk management across all industries, ”said Henrik Cederschiöld, Vice President and Head of Specialized Technical Services business area.
“We are very happy to be part of AFRY. Together, we will be stronger and have even better opportunities to bring Zert’s intelligent technology and risk management services to the market, ”said Peter Levisson, CEO of Zert AB.
Zert AB has an annual turnover of around SEK 16 million and nine employees are based in Umeå. Zert will be consolidated in AFRY from October 1st.
