TA Associates Announces Revalize Cloud Platform

Growth private equity firm TA Associates has announced the formation of a cloud-based platform called Revalize. 

The enterprise platform is tailored to the manufacturing industry and includes features for accelerating sales cycles and improving buying experiences, as well as manufacturing-specific design applications and engineering simulations. 

Based In Jacksonville Florida, the company will be led by Chairman Mark Friedman, previously founder of facilities management software Accruent, and CEO Jim Contardi, formerly the CEO of AutoQuotes – a company recently acquired by TA Associates. 

"We are excited to partner with Jim and Mark as we build Revalize into the leading revenue operations software platform for the manufacturing market," said Hythem El-Nazer, a Managing Director with TA Associates. "The Covid-19 pandemic accelerated the digital-transformation process that was already underway in manufacturing. We believe that Revalize is well positioned to benefit from this trend, and we are excited to support the business as it grows organically through product innovation and with capital for strategic acquisitions." 

Driving Digital Experiences Across Sectors 

Having already gained 8,000 customers, the company offers software tailored to different sectors, including medical devices, mechanical equipment and specialty vehicles. 

"I am thrilled to be joining Revalize as CEO," said Jim Contardi. "Revalize was created to deliver a better customer experience, an accelerated sales cycle, and more efficient processes with software tailored specifically for the manufacturing sectors we serve. Revalize is committed to growing its portfolio of software solutions that currently include design applications, engineering simulations, product selection, Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ), Product Information Management (PIM), visualisation, and data analytics. All of these solutions share a single purpose — to revolutionise how manufacturers connect with their markets.   

The platform is aimed at manufacturers, dealers, designers and engineers to streamline the customer experience and thus drive revenue. 

"With the formation of Revalize, we created a business that we believe will transform the way manufacturers leverage technology to achieve more revenue with less effort," said Mark Friedman. "Our industry-specific expertise, manufacturing focus, and ERP- and CRM-agnostic solutions are incredible differentiators for our products. I'm excited to be partnering with Jim and TA on this journey."
