Klipboard, the business management software platform previously known as Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS), has finalised the acquisition of RAM Tracking, marking a significant development for the facilities management software sector in the UK.
The deal brings RAM Tracking’s cloud‑based mobile work management solutions under the Klipboard umbrella, adding capabilities such as job management, scheduling, vehicle tracking, video monitoring, fleet management, and driver compliance to the existing portfolio.
RAM Tracking has built its reputation by helping companies improve field operations through more efficient asset management, reduced fuel costs and emissions, minimised downtime, theft prevention, increased worker productivity, and safer driving practices that can lead to lower insurance premiums.
With a client base of over 22,000 SMB customers across Europe and North America, RAM Tracking processes vast amounts of data daily, converting raw information into actionable insights that help facilities managers make critical operational decisions.
This strategic move strengthens Klipboard’s position in the business management software market, complementing their existing suite of solutions for managing physical and field operations, which now spans field services management, asset tracking, logistics, and rental software solutions for global clients.
Nick McClellan, Chief Executive Officer of RAM Tracking, said, “I am delighted to announce we are joining forces with KCS. The combination represents an opportunity to provide a broader SMB product suite to our customers, hastening the pace at which we can provide innovative technology and products supporting our clients to maximise efficiency and productivity and therefore, their profit generation capabilities. For our team, this represents an exciting opportunity to grow together with the larger global organisation that is KCS and work towards the goal of becoming a leading provider of software solutions and data insights to manage field operations.”
Ian Bendelow, CEO of Klipboard, said, “We are excited to welcome RAM Tracking to KCS. This acquisition provides our customers in the retail, distribution, servicing, manufacturing and rental trades a more comprehensive solution to manage their physical operations. With this acquisition, we demonstrate our commitment to support the digital transformation of our customers’ operations by enabling our clients with fleets and equipment or who provide delivery, logistics or field service to efficiently manage and increase productivity via our software and data insights.”
The acquisition is expected to benefit facilities managers across the UK who are increasingly seeking integrated digital solutions to manage complex operations, control costs, and meet sustainability targets.
