Ranger Fire and Security, a fire and security group launched by mid-market private equity firm Hyperion Equity Partners in February, has partnered with Simpro, a field service management software provider for trade and field services businesses.
According to a press statement, Simpro’s platform will enable individual businesses operating within Ranger Fire and Security to schedule and manage projects at scale. In September, Ranger’s businesses will be able to use Simpro for cross-selling, job quoting, scheduling, inventory tracking, invoicing and workflow management.
Ranger and Simpro also collaborated to develop a software setup, which will enable the former to operate without third-party software or manual workarounds.
Mark Bridges, CEO of Ranger Fire and Security, said: “Ranger was founded on a mission to overcome the fragmentation of the fire and security sector and support businesses to better collaborate and grow. Our new partnership with Simpro will enable us to take this mission to the next level.
“Its best-in-class platform will add a new dimension to Ranger, building on the successes we have already had this year with the acquisitions of several high-performing businesses, and will allow us to further enhance our collaboration and cross-selling activity.
“Simpro’s commitment to constantly enhancing its platform fits well with Ranger’s ethos and will no doubt prove invaluable on our journey to provide customers with the best service offering possible. Culture and a can-do attitude were key when choosing our provider, and we were really impressed by Simpro’s approach throughout the selection process.”
