AVEVA has announced the appointment of Murphy Surveys (Murphy) as its primary sales partner for Ireland. Murphy will be responsible for sales of AVEVA’s full suite of products in the process, power and pharmaceutical industries.

Murphy managing director Raymond Murphy said: "AVEVA’s market-leading software solutions have a great reputation and we are proud to be selected to support their market penetration strategy. We are confident that Murphy’s established presence in Ireland will provide a strong sales channel to support AVEVA’s comprehensive software solutions for design, engineering and information management. We look forward to establishing a long and mutually beneficial business relationship."

"We look forward to establishing a long and mutually beneficial business relationship."

AVEVA global sales executive vice-president Helmut Schuller said: "We are delighted to have formed this partnership. There is a genuine synergy between the AVEVA and Murphy cultures that supports our mutual commitment to finding the best solutions for our EPC, owner operator and shipbuilder clients. I have no doubt that Murphy will help us achieve our ambitious growth plans in Ireland."

AVEVA provides software for the design and management of some of the world’s largest process plants, power plants, marine vessels and offshore facilities. This alliance demonstrates AVEVA’s commitment to move into strategic territories, such as Ireland, where it does not have a direct sales and support presence.

Murphy has an impressive track record with more than 30 years’ experience in providing world-class survey solutions, operating from six offices throughout the UK and Ireland. It employs more than 200 staff, serving long-term public and private sector clients, including government bodies and blue-chip companies.

AVEVA will host a breakfast seminar in Dublin on Thursday 2 October 2014 to formally announce the partnership. The event is intended for EPCs and owner operators from the process, power and pharmaceutical industries, who are interested in learning about AVEVA’s leading engineering, design and information management software.
