Austin, Texas – April 8, 2016 — Accruent, a provider of asset, facilities, and real estate management solutions, announced the acquisition of Mainspring Healthcare Solutions, a leading provider of software and technology solutions to support services departments in U.S. hospitals.
“We are excited to welcome Mainspring’s customers as part of the Accruent family,” said Mark Friedman, chief executive officer, Accruent. “Within the healthcare industry, we’ve experienced significant growth in the past 18 months. We look forward to driving even more value for our customers with the addition of Mainspring’s services-oriented platform to further meet the unique needs of healthcare organizations.”
In addition to its computerized maintenance management solution (CMMS), Mainspring offers technology to address operational challenges across the hospital. With its suite of mobile solutions — iNeedIt, iGotIt, and iTrackit — Mainspring focuses beyond clinical engineering and facility management, where Accruent traditionally specializes.
“Our healthcare system is under a tremendous amount of pressure to improve patient care and reduce costs,” said Jason Beem, general manager of healthcare, Accruent. “Mainspring’s unique suite of workflow automation solutions complement Accruent’s existing healthcare solutions and will give our healthcare customers the technology they need to adapt to today’s market dynamics.”
Mainspring, which has served the healthcare market for nearly 25 years, will extend Accruent’s suite of purpose-built healthcare solutions into hospital service departments to drive efficiencies in operations. With the addition of Mainspring, the company’s solutions are now used by more than 55 percent of U.S. hospitals.
Integration of Mainspring Healthcare Solutions into Accruent is expected to be completed in mid-2016. Customers will see no interruption of support and services, and will be invited to attend a series of webinars that provide an introduction to Accruent and learn about the expanded solution options now available to them.
