Once For All to Acquire Nalanda Global


Once For All (the "Company"), a European leader in supply chain compliance and sustainable sourcing solutions for the built environment, is excited to announce the acquisition of Nalanda Global ("Nalanda"), a leading supply chain risk and compliance management software platform in Spain.

The transaction extends Once For All's European footprint into Spain and enhances the differentiated offering of its technology platform, adding scale and the ability to aid in providing a broader product suite to its customer base. Similar to Once For All, Nalanda operates a SaaS-based network that helps enable contractors in multiple industries to manage the compliance of sub-contractors in their supply chain. Nalanda also brings additional worker-level compliance and health & safety solutions to Once For All's product suite.

Founded in 2000 by a group of preeminent Spanish construction companies, Nalanda is based in Madrid, Spain, and its international presence currently extends across more than ten countries in Europe and Latin America. Its solutions are used by large companies across a variety of engineering-related sectors including construction and facilities management. With a network of over 1,000 contractors and 45,000 sub-contractors as of December 2023, Nalanda has one of the largest digital communities of suppliers globally.

GTCR, a leading private equity firm, acquired Once For All in 2023 in partnership with Chief Executive David Hornsby. PSG Equity, a growth equity firm that partners with software and technology-enabled services companies, acquired a majority stake in Nalanda in 2021. As part of the transaction, which is expected to close in the coming weeks, the PSG funds will retain a minority stake in the combined business.

David Hornsby, Chief Executive of Once For All, said:

"Nalanda is a well-established provider with a product suite that strategically complements our own, and we are enthusiastic about combining our strengths as we continue to grow Once For All across Europe. We are excited to welcome the Nalanda team to Once For All and we look forward to working together."

Juan Gil Rabadan, Founder and CEO of Nalanda, said:

"Nalanda has gone through a transformative journey over the last three years under PSG's ownership. Through the investment in people and product, both organically and via M&A, we've established Nalanda as an industry leader in supply chain risk and compliance management in Spain, with a growing international presence. We are now thrilled to join Once For All as we share a vision for supporting the built environment globally. We look forward to partnering with the Once For All team and continuing to invest in innovating our technology and capabilities to serve our customers."

Mark Anderson, Managing Director and Head of Technology, Media & Telecommunications at GTCR, said:

"The combination of Once for All and Nalanda helps position the business for future growth through a pan-European offering. The combined company provides a leading technology platform and differentiated suite of products to help address the critical supply chain and compliance needs of its customers. We are pleased to partner with the PSG team and look forward to the continued success of the business."

Dany Rammal, Managing Director at PSG Equity, said:

"PSG is proud to have been part of the journey to create a leading Spain-based software champion. Nalanda's success to date is a testament to Juan Gil Rabadan's vision and his entire team's dedication to scaling the Company's solution into a comprehensive supply chain risk management and compliance offering. We are excited to be continuing the journey alongside GTCR, David Hornsby and the entire Once For All management team in support of the combined company's growth journey."
