Trinity Consultants, a Dallas-based global environmental consulting firm, has acquired OTTO, a service and technology platform that specializes in new construction building analytics and automated functional testing.
Trinity, which provides services and solutions for the built environment, said OTTO will offer clients a comprehensive and connected commissioning platform when combined with the capabilities of CxAlloy, Trinity’s commissioning management software.
“When I first discovered OTTO’s groundbreaking work several years ago, I admired the technology and envisioned a future collaboration,” Jacob Terry, CxAlloy’s director of product development, said in a statement. “I’m incredibly excited about what we can accomplish together as a united team. Combining OTTO’s unique automated testing technology with CxAlloy’s unmatched ease-of-use and best-in-class reporting will enable us to raise the bar for commissioning software.”
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
OTTO’s platform and services allow commissioning providers to integrate building analytics data during new construction, enhancing their commissioning services with automated functional testing, trend data analysis, and continuous fault detection.
‘A first-of-its-kind platform’
Trinity Consultants said that CxAlloy will support and promote OTTO’s existing offerings while developing the next-generation version of OTTO as an integrated component of CxAlloy. The company said that future versions will align with CxAlloy’s dedication to being an open and interoperable commissioning solution, continuously enhancing and expanding its capabilities to integrate with third-party software, including other building analytics products, through its API.
OTTO’s leadership team, including director and founder Derek McGarry, will continue to lead OTTO within CxAlloy, collaborating closely with Terry and the entire CxAlloy team.
“At OTTO, we believe connected commissioning is the future,” McGarry said in a statement. “We have long respected CxAlloy and cannot imagine a better partner to grow and enhance OTTO’s capabilities. Together, OTTO and CxAlloy will expand its offerings into a first-of-its-kind platform to bring this new future of connected commissioning to life.”
Trinity Consultants said it provides services and solutions in the built environment, EHS regulatory compliance, life sciences, and water and ecology markets. It was founded in 1974 and said it has the technical expertise, industry depth, and capabilities to help clients achieve their goals across the natural and built environments.
