OMMAX supports Unigestion in the acquisition of Springer’s TecVia

Munich — OMMAX assis­ted Uniges­tion SA in the acqui­si­tion of Sprin­ger Fach­me­dien München and the entire mobi­lity educa­tion and trai­ning busi­ness of Sprin­ger Nature, resul­ting in the forma­tion of TecVia Group. TecVia is a leading provi­der of educa­tion and trai­ning solu­ti­ons in the mobi­lity sector with head­quar­ters in Munich. In prepa­ra­tion for the acqui­si­tion of Sprin­ger Nature’s mobi­lity educa­tion and trai­ning busi­ness, OMMAX supported Uniges­tion with tech­ni­cal due diligence.

Tech­ni­cal due dili­gence analy­zed and evalua­ted the tech­ni­cal capa­bi­li­ties and set-up in the core markets of Germany and France. The analy­ses included modu­les such as tech­no­logy and product stra­tegy, system archi­tec­ture, soft­ware deve­lo­p­ment life­cy­cle, orga­niza­tio­nal setup and IT security.

“Uniges­tion was extre­mely plea­sed with the compre­hen­sive tech­ni­cal analy­sis OMMAX provi­ded, which faci­li­ta­ted the successful acqui­si­tion of TecVia. The work of the Tech Due Dili­gence team provi­ded an excel­lent over­view of the current and future tech­ni­cal capa­bi­li­ties of the company’s soft­ware,” said Phil­ipp Scheier, Part­ner at Unigestion.
