23 Bentley Systems, the specialist in software solutions for sustaining infrastructure, has acquired 5575 InspectTech Systems, a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based provider of field inspection applications and asset management services for bridges and other transportation assets. Among current InspectTech users are federal and state departments of transportation, major transit agencies, toll authorities, counties, cities, and national and local consultants across the United States, as well as a major roadway authority in Australia. The InspectTech software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution helps asset owners streamline the process of planning inspections, collecting and managing inspection data, and complying with government reporting requirements.

Bentley says its goal in making the acquisition is to exploit the full potential of new capabilities for information mobility to enhance asset management by integrating information modelling with inspection processes.
