Pentagon Solutions expands market share with addition of Symetri’s Document Management Solution (DMS) Business

London, UK – 5th October, 2023 

Symetri, an Addnode Group company and the UK leader in technology solutions and services for design, engineering, construction and manufacturing businesses, today announced it will be transferring its Document Management Solution (DMS) business unit to Pentagon Solutions, a global dedicated supplier in the Document and Asset Information Management space.

The transfer took place on 2nd October 2023, involving the transition of the Accruent, Excitech Docs and Excitech Mail product portfolio and provides clients with comprehensive and enhanced products and services across the construction and manufacturing industries, backed by unrivalled industry expertise.

John Bartle, Senior Director - UK of Symetri comments:

“DMS has been a part of our business for many years and during that time we have had much success servicing and developing the solutions. It has always been a welcomed addition to partner our overall business offerings. We share complementary skills, capabilities and technology with Pentagon Solutions, and since it is already a dedicated supplier of Document and Asset Information Management technology, we feel the transfer will enable the delivery of an even stronger technology and service offering to existing and new clients both now and in the future.”

Pentagon delivers and supports technology for companies that strive to gain efficiencies in their business by digitalisation of their assets and processes across the UK, Ireland, Europe and the US. Pentagon has already successfully integrated Accruent into its portfolio, adding significant expertise in Facilities Management product offerings. The integration of Symetri’s DMS business will strengthen Pentagon’s global Document and Asset Information Management presence and expand its market share.

Eamon Morgan, Managing Director of Pentagon Solutions said, “As Owner Operators, Contractors and their supply chains all fight against unprecedented economic pressures to Design, Construct and Operate assets within ever increasing stringent gridlines, Pentagon are happy to increase our Team and Technology offerings to help address these pressures.

This strengthening of our Team and Technology offerings underpins our company vision to be an Innovative Service & Solutions Company that supports Owner Operators and their Construction Contractors during the Design, Construction and Operation phases of their physical Asset. This is achieved by the use of technology and processes to ensure a clear digital data strategy which in turn drives project cost savings and sustainable cost savings during asset operation.”
