By combining Accruent's IoT monitoring and intelligent analytics with Carter Synergy's HVACR and refrigeration expertise, the companies will provide a technical bureau service through a single contract. This gives customers access to specialist support while helping them make better use of asset data.

The combined solution is designed to improve the reliability of refrigeration and building systems, reduce unexpected maintenance, support food safety and environmental compliance, and identify ways to lower energy use across supermarkets and retail locations.

The partnership strengthens Accruent's Maintain, Observe, and Sustain CAFM platform by combining advanced technology, data and industry expertise into a single solution for grocery, and retail businesses. It also enhances the platform's ability to connect asset monitoring, maintenance, and service management, helping retailers standardize operations and make better decisions across their facilities.

“Across the retail sector, engineering teams are facing increasing pressure to maintain asset performance, control energy consumption and minimize disruption, often with limited resources. The opportunity is no longer to collect more data, but to use that information effectively to make better operational decisions,” said Thomas Morgan, Service Director, Carter Synergy.
