Industrial software company Aize has acquired French industrial AI company Samp, bringing together complementary technologies, teams and visions for how industrial companies work with complex asset information.
The combination will address industrial assets across their full lifecycle, from newer, greenfield facilities built around comprehensive CAD and engineering models to decades-old brownfield assets where technical information is often scattered, incomplete or outdated.
Samp has developed Shared Reality, an AI-powered platform that transforms reality-capture data, such as laser scans, into structured asset information and connects what physically exists in the field with engineering information such as tags, drawings and P&IDs. Shared Reality provides the missing link between scattered, incomplete and outdated technical information and the reality of the field.
Samp’s technology is already deployed across more than 500 industrial facilities, with a strong focus on Energy and Water. Aize is used by leading companies across the energy sector, including BP, ExxonMobil, SBM Offshore, Aker BP and Aker Solutions, to bring engineering, operational and asset information together in one digital working environment.
“What convinced us about Samp was not only the technology, but the team, their commercial momentum and how closely their vision aligns with ours,” says Jarle Skrebergene, CEO of Aize. “Together, we can connect engineering intent, operational information and what actually exists in the field, creating a uniquely powerful foundation for industrial companies to understand and work with their assets throughout their lifecycle.”
