Accenture (NYSE: ACN) has acquired Bolsan, a Bilbao, Spain-based provider of management services for large infrastructure projects.
The amount of the deal was not disclosed.
With the acquisition, Accenture will continue to scale its services to help clients complete capital projects—large, long-term infrastructure projects—more predictably and efficiently. By applying artificial intelligence (AI) and other digital technologies to asset lifecycle management, Accenture and the Boslan team will help clients optimize their project investments and become carbon-neutral faster.
Led by CEO Isaac Gómez, Bolsan helps its clients engineer and oversee the construction of infrastructure for the net-zero transition, such as solar power plants, smart grids, electric vehicle charging infrastructure and hydrogen plants. It also supports the construction of data centers and critical infrastructure. The services include feasibility studies, project planning, cost and quality control, contract negotiation and management, design reviews, equipment purchase assistance and field work supervision. Its clients are private and public sector organizations in the renewable energy, oil and gas, infrastructure, data centers and utilities industries.
Boslan adds more than 1,000 engineering and project management professionals to Accenture, most of whom are based in Spain and Brazil. The company also has a presence in Portugal, the United Kingdom, the United States and Mexico. The team joins Accenture’s infrastructure and capital projects practice within its digital engineering and manufacturing service, Industry X.
