Project teams use a cloud dashboard to track MEP systems and commissioning progress in real time.
Boston, MA, August 14, 2025
Nexa Equity has made a growth investment in Boston-area software company Facility Grid to accelerate its product roadmap, expand customer support and improve customer experience. Facility Grid’s cloud-based Operational Readiness (OR) platform provides real-time tracking, verification and documentation for mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, streamlining commissioning and turnover to reduce rework and delays. The funding will shorten development cycles, enable faster feature rollouts, and increase in-field support during critical project phases. Facility Grid serves commissioning providers, contractors and building owners across data centers, healthcare, higher education, life sciences, manufacturing and energy sectors.
A growth investment has been made into a cloud-based construction software company to accelerate its product roadmap, expand customer support, and improve overall customer experience. The funding comes from a San Francisco–based growth-oriented private equity firm that focuses on scaling founder-led B2B software businesses. The deal is positioned as a major step for the software provider in delivering tools that help commissioning providers, building owners, general contractors, and trade contractors track, verify, and manage building systems through construction and into operations.
The new capital is intended to bring additional resources to speed development of new product features, expand customer support teams, and deepen the company’s commitment to helping clients deliver higher-quality buildings on schedule and on budget. The investment is described by company leaders as a pivotal move that will allow the business to innovate faster, broaden capabilities, and invest more deeply in tools that drive customer success.
The company provides a cloud-based platform designed to streamline commissioning (Cx) and operational readiness (OR) activities. The software enables real-time tracking, documentation, and verification of building assets, equipment, and systems during installation, commissioning, quality control, and turnover. Key functions include automated turnover documentation, efficient data capture, real-time schedule updates, and a centralized source of truth for building system status.
The platform targets reduction of rework, improved construction quality, and better compliance with project specifications. By giving project teams instant access to essential information and enabling clearer stakeholder communication, the software aims to help projects meet deadlines and protect profit margins for contractors and owners.
The provider serves more than 150 commissioning providers, general contractors, trade contractors, and building owners. Customers span sectors with high-stakes system requirements, including data centers, healthcare, higher education, life sciences, manufacturing, energy, and office facilities. The platform is used to capture and report on the status of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems at a detailed level and feed that data back to schedulers, project managers, and executives.
Earlier in the year, the company announced major enhancements to its Operational Readiness platform, calling it an industry-first set of capabilities to reinforce its role as a definitive tracking tool across the construction lifecycle. The upgraded OR platform emphasizes seamless collaboration among stakeholders and provides instant access to progress data, reducing the risk of late-stage surprises and negative float that can lead to costly delays.
The company points to industry data that a majority of commercial construction firms face delays or project abandonment because of unforeseen costs and rework in later stages. The OR platform is built to address those late-stage issues by delivering real-time insights, streamlining commissioning and turnover, and helping teams complete critical systems on schedule with clearer accountability.
The investing firm brings capital and operational expertise aimed at helping founder-led SaaS companies professionalize and scale. The private equity firm manages assets in excess of one billion dollars and has positioned itself to partner with businesses that serve markets underserved by technology. Legal counsel for the investment was provided by a major law firm.
Company leadership has acknowledged customer trust and partnership in reaching this milestone and signaled a continued focus on providing a reliable platform and services while scaling development and support functions.
The company directs those seeking more information to its website. Media contact information was provided for both the software company and the investor for press or industry inquiries. The immediate priorities following the investment include ramping product development work, hiring or expanding support teams, and further enabling customers to deliver projects with improved quality and predictability.
