Relyon Expands Field Service Management Capabilities with Acquisition of FieldBuddy
Relyon strengthens its market position and product flexibility by acquiring FieldBuddy, expanding capabilities for complex field service operations
May 21st 2025, The Hague – Relyon, a provider of field service management solutions, today announced the acquisition of FieldBuddy, a highly configurable SaaS field service management platform based in the Netherlands. This acquisition marks a significant step in Relyon’s growth strategy, supported by Main Capital Partners since 2021.
Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Amsterdam, FieldBuddy provides a comprehensive platform that enables service-oriented organizations to efficiently plan, manage, and optimize field service operations. The platform supports digital work orders, planning, asset management, invoicing, automation, analytics, and integration with leading ERP systems. Built on Salesforce, FieldBuddy serves approximately 100 customers and over 4,000 active users across industries such as manufacturing, energy, HVAC, and mobility.
Strategic Fit
The acquisition of FieldBuddy is highly complementary to Relyon’s existing offerings. Relyon’s flagship product, Relyon One, provides a fully standardized solution for customers seeking rapid implementation of an innovative off-the-shelf system. FieldBuddy, on the other hand, addresses the needs of clients with more complex workflows that require configuration, product flexibility and more advanced features. This combination allows Relyon to serve both needs very effectively, enhancing market coverage and solidifying the combined group’s market position. Importantly, both Relyon and FieldBuddy customers will continue to experience the same high-quality service and operational continuity they rely on today.
This strategic acquisition aligns perfectly with Relyon's vision to become the most innovative provider of software solutions for field service professionals.
Sjoerd Aarts, Managing Partner at Main Capital Partners: “We are excited to announce this strategic acquisition, which aligns perfectly with Relyon’s vision to become the most innovative provider of software solutions for field service professionals.
