Former independent operating unit of Intergraph® Process, Power & Marine realigns under parent company for greater efficiencies and product synergy

HUNTSVILLE, Ala., June 8, 2017 — (PRNewswire) —  EcoSys, the industry standard for enterprise project controls software, today announced a corporate entity rebrand. EcoSys will now use the name of its parent division, Hexagon PPM, signaling deeper integration in operations and products. Hexagon PPM (formerly known as Intergraph Process, Power & Marine), acquired EcoSys in October 2015.

The enterprise project controls software platform named EcoSys EPC (Enterprise Planning & Controls) will now simply be called "EcoSys," a brand that has grown to define world-class project controls.

Since the acquisition of EcoSys in 2015, the use of EcoSys project controls technology has expanded within Hexagon AB to satisfy project controls needs in multiple industries. EcoSys product integration has also progressed with the Hexagon PPM portfolio to enable dynamic progress updates for large projects. EcoSys is evolving into the foundation technology for dynamic project analytics for many clients, fueled by new integration with other Hexagon PPM product lines, including design, materials management, and construction planning.  

Hexagon PPM software solutions help visualize, create, and manage the life cycle of facilities and structures of all complexities. With nearly five decades of innovation and proven leadership, PPM has become the trusted partner for entities challenged with the engineering, design, building, and operation of facilities and structures across the globe. Headquartered in Madison, Alabama, USA, its 2,500 employees located on five continents serve customers in over 80 countries.

Javier Sloninsky, EcoSys co-founder and general manager, said, "As EcoSys becomes a fully integrated part of Hexagon PPM, we expect to see greater operating efficiencies and leveraging of combined resources to fuel global growth.  More important, however, is the benefit that EcoSys and Intergraph Smart® products deliver to our customers. Now more aligned than ever, the portfolio of solutions delivered by Hexagon PPM helps ensure greater visibility and efficiency across all facets of the project lifecycle.  At a time where cost overruns are rampant and complexity continues to increase, we're excited to be a part of a larger solution that drives improved cost performance for projects."
