Acquire Technology Solutions has linked its Envirosys 9.5 environmental compliance platform with its GIM Suite geological data management system, creating a single workflow for drill hole, monitoring and location records. Environmental teams can now pull borehole IDs, collar coordinates and monitoring point locations directly from GIM Suite into Envirosys, reducing manual duplication and reconciliation. For mine operators, this should cut reporting errors in groundwater, dust and discharge datasets that rely on accurate spatial and geological references.

Alchera has secured £2.7m in seed funding, including £2m led by Maven Capital Partners via the British Business Bank’s South West Investment Fund plus £700,000 from Innovate UK’s Investor Partnerships programme, to scale its AI platform for road operations and maintenance planning. The software ingests bus location, traffic signal, vehicle movement, weather and air quality data, using proprietary, patent-pending traffic modelling to cut transport analysis from weeks to seconds and provide 24‑month traffic flow forecasts for schemes such as M25 roadworks. In Lancashire it is already analysing over 300 junctions and 85,000 network links to diagnose bus performance issues and target investment.

Hexagon has acquired Toronto-based modelling specialist Rocscience, integrating its finite element and limit equilibrium tools for slope stability, tunnelling and dam analysis into Hexagon’s radar and monitoring division. The combined platform will link Hexagon’s continuous geotechnical sensors, including radar monitoring of ground movement, directly to Rocscience’s rock and soil behaviour models to auto‑update designs from construction through operations. For infrastructure and mining projects, this enables live calibration of stability models, earlier detection of deformation trends and shorter turnaround on ground‑risk assessments.
