By T Radhakrishna | 15 Nov 2002
The acquisition of Baymont increases Avineon's presence as a leading provider of geospatial solutions, while enhancing its strategic position in the GIS industry. Baymont brings over 20 years of experience in GIS, automated mapping / facilities management (AM/FM), mapping and photogrammetry services to Avineon.
With this acquisition, Avineon now offers the full range of services necessary for successful GIS implementation including needs analysis, specification development, software development, training, project management, photogrammetric mapping, stereo-compilation, photo interpretation / remote sensing, landbase and facilities data capture, database development, and data maintenance.
Avineon's Baymont division will continue operations as the focal point for the company's GIS service offerings. These services include environmental and photogrammetric mapping for federal, state, and local government agencies; facilities mapping for telephone, electric, gas, water, and waste water utilities; and a variety of other geospatial services.
“This acquisition dramatically expands our expertise and resources to serve the needs of the GIS marketplace,“ says Avineon president and CEO Karlu Rambhala. “We are very excited to have Baymont's talented people and advanced technology become an integral part of Avineon. Our combined experience and shared commitment to customer satisfaction enable us to offer comprehensive geospatial solutions to a wider government, utility, and commercial clientele.“
Scott McCaw, senior vice-president of Agra Baymont's parent company AMEC, adds: “We are confident that Avineon will deliver the high quality of service to which Baymont's clients are accustomed. Avineon's complementary skills expand upon the GIS and mapping services traditionally offered by Baymont.“
