Clearlake Capital-backed Precisely recently announced that it signed a definitive agreement to acquire data governance software provider Infogix. Terms of the deal were not made available, but the merger is a major move coming on the heels of Clearlake’s acquisition of Precisely from March. Syncsort re-branded to Precisely as a result of the company’s acquisition of the Pitney Bowes software data business in August 2019. The transaction is expected to close by the end of Q2 2021.
