Next Gear Solutions Has Completed the Acquisition of Moisture Mapper International

OXFORD, Miss., February 12, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Next Gear Solutions, developer of DASH, the market-leading restoration management software, has completed the acquisition of Moisture Mapper International. With this acquisition, Moisture Mapper joins DASH, MICA, DryTrack and Luxor CRM in the Next Gear Solutions product suite, reaffirming the NGS commitment to the property restoration space. By combining the technologies of DryTrack, MICA and Moisture Mapper, Next Gear Solutions will accelerate its services to leading property insurance carriers and its 4,000+ restoration contractors. This acquisition also brings John North, president of Moisture Mapper, and his entire team to the growing Next Gear family. 

“Next Gear Solutions is all about simplifying the lives of contractors. Restoration contractors are being asked to shoulder more of the administrative burden in the claim process and are expected to do it from the job site,” said Garret Gray, CEO of Next Gear Solutions. “The future we envision is one of tighter integration across applications and less double-entry leading to more efficient workflows and a better experience for all involved in a claim.”

About Moisture Mapper 

Moisture Mapper was founded in 2005 by a group of professionals that recognized a need in the property insurance industry for a common platform that could effectively document and communicate all aspects of the water mitigation “process” on both residential and commercial properties. As Moisture Mapper gained traction in the restoration industry, in addition to providing ease of use for contractor documentation, the business focus has grown dramatically for the data analysis tools insurers and Managed Repair Programs sought to minimize open file time and quickly pay and close claims.
