Barr GeoSpatial Solutions (BGS)
Overview:
BGS is a leading provider of geospatial data and analytics to customers across North America. Barr collects and processes remote sensing data and applies advanced analytics leveraging AI and machine learning to help protect critical infrastructure, natural resources, and the environment. Barr’s cutting edge threat detection and prevention tools are used across a wide range of markets including oil & gas, utility, and forestry where accuracy, speed and reliability are critical. When 24|6 Capital Partners acquired Barr Air Patrol in 2015, the company employed 49 people and operated as a niche provider of visual right-of-way inspections for the oil & gas industry. Over 10 years Barr GeoSpatial Solutions was transformed into a market leader in the geospatial data collection and analytics space. Barr is headquartered in Houston, Texas with over 30 locations across the U.S and Canada.
Our Approach:
24|6 Capital Partners took an active role in driving growth and transformation:
• Strategic Acquisitions: Completed six proprietary add-on acquisitions across the U.S. and Canada, expanding Barr’s capabilities and geographic footprint including several transformational acquisitions that expanded BGS into LiDAR and data analytics.
• Technology Integration: Developed advanced imaging capabilities for right-of-way monitoring and introduced machine learning/AI for active threat detection. Expanded LiDAR processing and analytics including vegetation management and fire modeling.
• Growth Culture: Focused on building a diversified platform with a broad geospatial service offering. Expanded into utility and forestry markets to complement oil & gas.
• Operational Scaling: Invested in leadership, technology, and infrastructure to professionalize systems and processes. Expanded into Canada with a presence in over 30 locations across North America. Doubled aircraft fleet while acquiring over 25 sensors and growing the employee base from 49 to 430 people.
Results:
• EBITDA increased more than eight-fold through margin expansion and revenue growth.
• Established vertically integrated business providing data collection, processing adn analytics to multiple end markets across North America.
• Investment generated over 20x cash-on-cash returns for investors.
Status:
After 8.5 years of transformational growth, 24|6 Capital Partners exited the investment in October of 2023 while maintaining a significant minority position and a board presence. Barr remains an industry leader, continuing to execute on its growth trajectory.
National Data Systems (NDS)
