Cleo, a global leader in Ecosystem Integration software solutions and provider of the Cleo Integration Cloud (CIC) platform, today announced the acquisition of DataTrans Solutions (DTS), a cloud-based procurement automation and EDI solutions provider.
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
This strategic move expands Cleo’s ability to help businesses streamline procurement, optimize working capital, and strengthen supplier relationships. The acquisition comes as companies increasingly look to digitalize procurement processes. Research from Digital Procurement World highlights a significant gap between procurement goals and execution, often due to technology limitations. Cleo’s own findings show that 97% of supply chain executives are investing in automation to boost efficiency.
“Cleo’s vision is to deliver true supply chain orchestration by bridging the gap between planning and execution,” said Mahesh Rajasekharan, President and CEO of Cleo. “With DTS’s technology embedded into CIC, we’re empowering procurement teams to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and minimize supply chain risks—all through automation.”
Unlocking Value Through Procurement Automation
Many companies still rely on manual procurement processes, leading to inefficiencies and increased costs. By integrating DTS’s procurement automation capabilities, Cleo will provide businesses with a comprehensive, digital-first solution featuring:
- Supplier EDI & Testing Portal – Simplifies supplier onboarding
- Web EDI & PDF Digitization – Automates transactions across channels
- Supplier Scorecarding & Performance Tracking – Enhances visibility and compliance
Mike Franks, CEO of DTS, emphasized, “Joining Cleo marks a new chapter for DTS customers and employees. With Cleo’s innovation-driven approach, we will accelerate the adoption of procurement automation and deliver even greater value.”
