EPM, with the support of Literacy Capital, has completed its second acquisition – Sheffield based software services provider, 3Squared Ltd (“3Squared”).

Founded in 2002, 3Squared, is a Queen’s Award-winning digital solutions provider to the rail industry with a mission to enable the transportation sector to become safer, greener and more efficient through digitalisation. Its flagship RailSmart suite of software applications continues to disrupt the rail sector as more passenger, freight operating companies, and suppliers to the rail industry use the software to increase productivity whilst reducing risk and cost.

The acquisition will enhance EPM’s position and capability in providing high quality software solutions, focussed on improving operational and commercial performance, whilst also diversifying their activities into the rail sector.

Tim Jones and James Fox, co-founders of 3Squared, will stay on with the business and work with Ian Churchill, Group Chief Executive Officer, and the core management team at EPM to bring new software solutions to the transportation space, with continued support from Literacy Capital.
