EarthSoft Acquires PlanEngage, A Leading Stakeholder Engagement Platform

EQuIS Acquires Federated Information Management Technology

PENSACOLA, FL, UNITED STATES, September 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- EarthSoft today announced the acquisition of PlanEngage, a powerful stakeholder engagement platform that helps organizations connect information from multiple specialized systems and communicate project insights effectively to stakeholders. This acquisition from AECOM strengthens EarthSoft's portfolio of environmental and geotechnical data management solutions. PlanEngage is a unifying portal bringing data and information from across the project ecosystem together to tell the complete project story.

Project teams depend on data and information from many different specialized systems as environmental and infrastructure projects become more complex and technology becomes more advanced. PlanEngage uses dynamic GIS and interactive tools to access and visualize project information. It enables communication of the complete project story for communities, regulators, and project stakeholders.

For the past seven years, PlanEngage provided clients with a digital solution that enables project teams to conduct meaningful, transparent engagement with key project stakeholders and communities. PlanEngage will continue to deliver the platform and support benefiting from EarthSoft’s dedicated software expertise, deep technical capabilities and long-standing commitment to data excellence.

"PlanEngage has established itself as a trusted platform for stakeholder engagement, helping organizations communicate transparently and effectively with the communities and stakeholders they serve," said Dan Alexander, Chief Commercial Officer at EarthSoft. "Bringing PlanEngage into the EarthSoft ecosystem enables us to provide a more complete solution that connects environmental and geotechnical data, project information, and stakeholder engagement. Our vision is not to force data movement, but to make data more accessible and actionable, allowing organizations to present environmental, financial, project, GIS, and stakeholder information through a unified engagement portal while keeping data managed where it lives today."

The PlanEngage acquisition further reinforces EarthSoft's mission of helping organizations transform environmental, geotechnical, and sustainability data into actionable insights. By combining robust data management applications with modern stakeholder engagement capabilities, EarthSoft will enable clients to move more efficiently from data collection and analysis to communication, collaboration, and decision-making, helping organizations gain more value from the information they already have. EarthSoft will work closely with AECOM to ensure a smooth transition for existing PlanEngage customers, with ongoing support and a strong roadmap for future enhancements.
