Fife-based business in expansion mode after acquiring Welsh company

The DPS Group - an intelligent process control and automation solution provider - has acquired Wales-based Oasis Software Solutions (OSS)

Based in Monmouth, the new addition has an extensive experience in the water industry, a strong Distributed Control System (DCS) background and a track record of delivering high-quality automation solutions,

DPS is based in Lomond Business Park and is part of water technology solution group RSE, a clean water technology company developing market-leading products and services for purifying drinking water, recycling waste water and cleaning water in industrial processes. It has key partnerships with Siemens, Rockwell, and Schneider Electric. Martin Brownlee, managing director, DPS Group, said: "We’re delighted to welcome OSS to the DPS Group. Their expertise perfectly complements our existing strengths in automation and process control. This partnership is a natural fit and allows us to offer our clients a broader range of advanced solutions. Together, we’ll be able to deliver faster, smarter, and more secure upgrades, driving operational excellence for our customers across multiple industries.”

Neil MacDonald, managing director of OSS added: “This investment by DPS will help OSS achieve our growth aims by providing access to a broader range of industries than was previously possible. OSS in turn, with our strong DCS background, expertise in the water industry and geographical location, will help strengthen DPS’s capability within the wider RSE Group. It’s a great blend of two businesses that complement each other so well, with a technical offering that provides market leading capability from field and plant through to control room and cloud.”
