<strong>Team D3 Joins Forces with Microdesk and Symetri and Strengthens Their Offering and Expertise</strong>

Nashua, New Hampshire – Microdesk Inc’s owner Symetri, a leading global solution provider of digital BIM, product design and lifecycle solutions, announced it has signed an agreement to acquire Team D3, an Autodesk Platinum Partner headquartered in the US. Team D3 drives continuous innovation and improvement for clients in the Manufacturing, AECO, and Process & Power industries.

Founded in 1999, Team D3 employs more than 200 people, generating net sales more than $120 million. Based in Springfield, Missouri, with additional offices in the mid-west, it was one of the first partners of Autodesk in the US and expands their offering in the Manufacturing and Power & Process industries and capacity within the AECO industry.

With this acquisition Symetri and Microdesk expand their  footprint in the US market, strengthen their position in the manufacturing, power & process, and AECO market, and enable the company to deliver more value to their customers. Together they will serve more than 25,000 customers and 450,000 daily users with more than 1,000 employees as the #1 Global Autodesk Solution provider.

Microdesk’s customers will immediately benefit from an increase in the breadth of skills Team D3 has access to within the Manufacturing, Power & Process and AECO industries.

The acquisition of Team D3 is in line with their strategy to be a global market leader within their industry. Together, Symetri, Microdesk and Team D3 will have an increased Service and R&D capacity, unique product lines including Naviate and Sovelia, and the ability to deliver more value for their customers. The combined companies are committed to ensuring that people work smarter and more sustainably.

Michael DeLacey, CEO of Microdesk, added, “Team D3 is a world-class integrator of engineering and design solutions, and as an Autodesk Platinum Partner, reigns among the most accomplished manufacturing solution providers. They bring exceptional skills and more capacity to our customer base of manufacturers, engineers, architects, and construction professionals. This expansion will allow us to drive more value and more sustainability to the US design and make community.”

Kevin Schlack, CEO, Team D3, commented, “When we began to consider strategic options to take Team D3 to the next level, one thing was clear, we wanted to partner with someone that put customers and innovation at the heart of everything they do. From the very beginning we were struck by the similar journeys our companies had been on, the closeness we felt to our customers, and the importance we place on having a great company culture. When we then looked at Microdesk’s and Symetri’s product lines, Naviate and Sovelia, and the investments they make every year in R&D, we realized the incredible value they could offer our customers. We are excited about joining Microdesk and Symetri and looking forward to building a successful global business for both our customers and our employees.”
