Yotta Software Contract Win

 

- Yotta expands its reach into Europe -

- First installation outside UK established in the Netherlands -

 

OMG plc (AIM:OMG) the technology group providing image understanding products for the entertainment, life science, engineering and consumer electronics markets, is pleased to announce that its infrastructure management arm, Yotta, has expanded use of its software outside the UK, securing its first European installation in the Netherlands for Horizons, the visualised asset management software.

 

Under the terms of the contract, Yotta will work closely with Wegdekmeten, its newly appointed distributor in the Netherlands and Wegdekmeten's client, De Jong Zuurmond, a Dutch infrastructure services company who will roll out Horizons across a number of projects. These include maintenance of the fourth largest sea port in the Netherlands and contracts with Rijkswaterstaat, an executive of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Environment.

 

The Horizons software is a visual and user-friendly asset management system, which will be used by Wegdekmeten to collate and present detailed highway asset information, helping to inform planning of maintenance works and condition reporting across the Netherlands.

 

Fred Mekken, Owner, at Wegdekmeten commented: "We collect data for all types of infrastructure assets on behalf of a range of clients including contractors, such as De Jong, and owners including government organisations. Working with Horizons we can help them turn this data into information that can be easily understood, shared and used to enhance decision making across a diverse set of applications."

 

Gerrit Zuurmond, CEO, De Jong Zuurmond added: "The environments in which we operate are complex and challenging and our clients expect up to date, detailed and accurate reports on the services we provide and the condition of their assets. Working with Wegdekmeten, we can collect this level of data and now, using Horizons, we can interrogate and analyse the data to improve decision making and planning, and present the results in an easy to understand way."

 

Commenting on the contract win, Nick Bolton, CEO of OMG said:

 

"I'm delighted that we have secured this contract which marks the first order and application of Horizons outside of the UK. This represents a major milestone for Horizons which has been gathering momentum since its launch in 2011. It's gratifying to see the benefits have been recognised by such experts in Dutch infrastructure asset management. We are looking forward to developing our relationship with the team at Wegdekmeten and helping them and their clients make the most of Horizons capabilities.

 

We already have a well-defined development path to expand Horizons further into Europe based on our initial partnerships with Wegdekmeten and De Jong, and we are also looking to explore other international opportunities."
