AMCS Strengthens Global Waste Management Solutions with Acquisition of Selected Interventions and Mandalay Technologies
AMCS, a leading provider of performance sustainability solutions, has acquired Selected Interventions, a global SaaS company specializing in municipal resource management. The acquisition, announced on October 15, 2023, enhances AMCS's ability to optimize waste management and recycling operations, improve service delivery, and accelerate the adoption of circular economy practices. Selected Interventions boasts a robust customer base, serving residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal waste collection sectors. Its flagship ECHO™ Service Management Framework is a comprehensive tool designed to streamline data capture, mobilize workflows, and offer consistent management views. This solution supports waste management services for about 19 million residents globally and is known for its flexibility and robust capabilities in planning, customer engagement, and mobile workforce management. Jimmy Martin, co-founder and CEO of AMCS, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition, noting that the ECHO solution complements AMCS's existing Performance Sustainability Suite. "Selected Interventions’ ECHO solution helps service providers manage critical processes, from data capture to billing and sustainability reporting," said Martin. "This integration will deepen our relationships with shared customers and expand our reach into new markets. Together, we aim to deliver enhanced value, empowering customers to achieve both their financial and sustainability goals." The acquisition fortifies AMCS's offerings in the municipal sector, where local governments and resource recovery organizations can benefit from more efficient waste management and recycling programs. By automating key processes, the combined solutions reduce administrative overhead, expedite revenue collection, and improve resource utilization. Environmental outcomes are also expected to see a positive boost, as the integrated system provides robust tools for sustainability reporting and operational optimization. Matt Brookes, CEO of Selected Interventions, echoed Martin's sentiment, stating, "This alliance with AMCS represents a significant milestone for Selected Interventions. AMCS's global presence and commitment to performance sustainability open up new opportunities for our ECHO framework to make a broader impact, enhancing service delivery and environmental performance for more municipalities." In addition to acquiring Selected Interventions, AMCS has also purchased Mandalay Technologies, an Australian company that provides modular cloud-based weighbridge and data management solutions for the waste and resource recovery industry. This move further strengthens AMCS's presence in the Asia-Pacific region and boosts its global footprint to over 360 team members in the area. The combined efforts of these acquisitions result in a company that supports more than 4,000 customers with over 1,300 employees globally. Backed by EQT Private Equity, which took a majority stake in AMCS in 2024, the company is now well-positioned to offer integrated, innovative solutions across multiple sectors. AMCS's expanded suite of tools will help customers in the resource, waste, and recycling industries, among others, achieve higher levels of operational efficiency and environmental responsibility. AMCS's commitment to performance sustainability is rooted in its understanding that businesses must demonstrate environmental and social responsibility to remain viable. The company's software solutions, built by experts with deep industry knowledge, provide practical tools that increase customer satisfaction, enhance sustainability, and boost profit margins. AMCS's global reach spans over 80 countries, making it a trusted partner for a wide range of industries, from transportation and manufacturing to utilities. Industry insiders see this acquisition as a strategic move that aligns with the growing demand for sustainable and efficient waste management solutions. The integration of Selected Interventions' ECHO platform with AMCS's existing suite is expected to create synergies that significantly enhance the value proposition for both current and potential customers. With a strengthened product portfolio and increased market presence, AMCS is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of resource and recycling management, supporting the transition to a more sustainable world.
