Andrew Liau and Ed Pallesen, Co-Heads of H.I.G. Infrastructure, also commented, “The Fund is well-positioned to capitalize on opportunities in the less efficient middle market. H.I.G.’s unique platform provides us with a demonstrated, differentiated sourcing model and a deep pool of resources focused on operational value creation.

Factbird Adds Quality & Compliance and Reports to its Manufacturing Intelligence Platform20.5.2026 08:00:00 CEST | Press release
Two new capabilities give multi-site manufacturers standardized workflows, traceable records, and automated reporting across every plant. Today, Factbird is announcing two major additions to its manufacturing intelligence platform: Quality & Compliance and Factbird Reports. Both address a problem that compounds as manufacturers grow.
