The company aims to help industrial manufacturers improve service efficiency, reduce downtime, and better connect global service networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-clearops-expands-ai-platform-for-oem-after-sales\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClearOps Expands AI Platform for OEM After Sales<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClearOps, the AI-powered after sales platform for industrial OEMs, today announced the closing of an \u20ac8.6 million Series A funding round led by Hitachi Ventures, alongside Schoeller Group and Barkawi Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The funding marks ClearOps\u2019 first institutional capital raise and accelerates the company\u2019s mission to become the AI operating system for global OEM after sales operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-why-industrial-service-operations-face-growing-pressure\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Industrial Service Operations Face Growing Pressure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Solving One of Industrial Manufacturing\u2019s Largest Opportunities<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When machines stop working, every hour matters. When after sales doesn\u2019t seamlessly work across manufacturers, dealers, service partners, and machines, the right parts and services are often not available when needed and machines stand still.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The consequences are real. Construction sites stop, harvests are delayed, and parcels cannot be delivered. Downtime quickly becomes expensive, and dissatisfied customers often follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After sales keeps machines moving, drives customer loyalty, and represents one of the largest profitability drivers for OEMs and dealers alike. Yet despite its importance, much of the industry still operates across fragmented systems and manual processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClearOps acts as the AI operating system for industrial after sales, connecting manufacturers, dealers, service partners, and machines on a single platform without replacing existing infrastructure. By aggregating and orchestrating data across the service supply chain, ClearOps enables OEMs and dealers not only to predict demand, but increasingly automate and execute critical service and parts workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, ClearOps supports thousands of connected dealers and millions of machines worldwide, working with leading industrial manufacturers including AGCO, Terex, Jungheinrich, and Lippert. Across customer networks, ClearOps has increased parts availability by up to 40%, driven 5 to 15% growth in parts sales, and reduced repair times by up to two days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-investors-see-strong-potential-in-clearops\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Investors See Strong Potential in ClearOps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"h-founder-statement\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Founder Statement<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIndustrial service networks are under increasing pressure. Machines are becoming more connected, customer expectations around uptime continue to rise, and global disruptions have exposed the limits of today\u2019s fragmented after sales systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We believe the future belongs to manufacturers and dealer networks that can predict, coordinate, and execute in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our vision is bold. Keep the world\u2019s machines moving by building the AI operating system for after sales and ensuring the right parts and services are available before downtime happens.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/williambarkawi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">William Barkawi<\/a>, Founder and CEO, ClearOps<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"h-investor-perspective\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Investor Perspective<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The composition of this investor group reflects a strong alignment of industrial expertise, supply chain knowledge, and deep after sales experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"h-hitachi-ventures\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hitachi Ventures<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe believe industrial after sales is entering a fundamental transformation. As machines become increasingly connected and customer expectations around uptime continue to rise, traditional approaches to service operations will no longer be sufficient. ClearOps is building the operational intelligence layer needed for this next era by combining AI, data, and execution into one platform. We see a large market opportunity and believe the team is exceptionally well positioned to define this category.\u201d<br>Pete Bastien, Partner at Hitachi Ventures<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hitachi Ventures\u2019 participation provides strong strategic validation of ClearOps\u2019 platform and long term market opportunities. As the investment arm of one of the world\u2019s leading industrial technology companies, Hitachi Ventures brings deep expertise in industrial infrastructure, digital transformation, and global operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"h-schoeller-group\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Schoeller Group<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGlobal service and supply chain networks are becoming increasingly complex, yet many critical processes are still managed through fragmented systems and manual workflows. We believe the future belongs to intelligent, connected platforms capable of coordinating complex networks in real time. ClearOps combines deep operational expertise with a scalable technology platform, laying the foundation for the next generation of industrial service networks.\u201d<br>Christoph Schoeller, CEO of Schoeller Group<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Schoeller Group contributes extensive experience in logistics, industrial systems, and global supply chain operations. Its investment reflects strong alignment with ClearOps\u2019 vision of transforming fragmented service supply chains into connected, data driven operating environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"h-barkawi-group\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Barkawi Group<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cClearOps was built around a belief we have held for years. After sales remains one of the largest untapped opportunities in industrial businesses. It is where profitability, customer loyalty, and operational excellence come together, yet much of the industry still runs on fragmented systems and manual processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have supported ClearOps from day one because we saw both the scale of the problem and the opportunity to build a fundamentally new operating model for after sales. Today, with AI and connected ecosystems becoming reality, we believe the company is uniquely positioned to define the future of how manufacturers and dealer networks operate globally.\u201d<br>Robert Kunze, Managing Director at Barkawi Technologies<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barkawi Group brings deep operational expertise in after sales, service supply chains, and industrial operations, combined with a strong track record in company building and scaling technology businesses globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-clearops-accelerates-global-expansion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClearOps Accelerates Global Expansion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Accelerating the Next Phase of Growth<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Series A funding will primarily support ClearOps\u2019 global expansion, with significant investments into go to market capabilities, strategic ecosystem partnerships, and the continued advancement of the company\u2019s AI platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As industrial service networks become increasingly connected and complex, ClearOps is expanding its ecosystem footprint and strengthening partnerships that further embed the company at the center of modern after sales operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, ClearOps will continue investing in AI capabilities that enable OEMs and dealers not only to predict demand but increasingly automate and orchestrate complex parts and service operations across global networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As machine uptime becomes more critical and industrial environments face growing uncertainty and disruption, ClearOps is building the operational layer needed to power the next generation of intelligent after sales networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Picture: ClearOps Teampicture @ ClearOps<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\">Source ClearOps<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ClearOps has closed an \u20ac8.6 million Series A funding round.
