Applied Software, an Autodesk AEC reseller in the US Southeast, has acquired the Atlanta-based operations of the Software Solutions Group of Imaging Technologies, a division of American Reprographics Company (NYSE: ARP). This is typical of a trend across the country, whereby larger resellers are expanding territory by buying out smaller competitors or (as in this case) acquiring specific reseller operations from companies who are in multiple lines of business.
Applied Software now provides AEC reseller and consulting services to more than 4,000 organizations in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. It is now the largest Autodesk AEC reseller in the region.
