A note from Mick O’Dwyer, Founder & CEO of SwiftComply
The Big Picture
Today, I’m excited to announce that SwiftComply has acquired CloudCompli and NPDESPro, bringing together three industry-leading water compliance solutions under one roof. This strategic acquisition marks a significant milestone in our journey to build the most comprehensive, connected compliance platform for water utilities across North America.
For our customers, this means one powerful platform to manage all your water compliance programs – eliminating the fragmentation that has long complicated this essential work.
Why This Matters for Water Utilities
Water compliance teams have faced a persistent challenge: managing critical environmental programs through disconnected tools that weren’t designed to work together. Most utilities currently juggle:
- A FOG management system for restaurants and food service establishments
- Separate backflow prevention software for tracking devices and tests
- Spreadsheets or legacy systems for industrial pretreatment programs
- Yet another platform for stormwater management
In reality, these programs often share data, overlap in jurisdiction, and are managed by the same departments. The disconnection creates inefficiency, data gaps, and unnecessary complexity.
Stormwater: A Critical Program Getting the Attention It Deserves
Stormwater management sits at the intersection of environmental protection, infrastructure planning, and climate resilience. Yet the tools supporting these critical programs have historically been:
- Disconnected from other water compliance systems
- Cumbersome for field teams to use effectively
- Limited in their ability to adapt to evolving regulatory requirements
CloudCompli and NPDESPro changed this landscape by creating intuitive, purpose-built solutions that stormwater professionals genuinely appreciate.
SwiftComply: The Operating System for Water Compliance
With these acquisitions, SwiftComply now offers a comprehensive suite of solutions covering:
- ✅ FOG Management: Tracking food service establishments, grease interceptors, and maintenance compliance
- ✅ Backflow Prevention: Managing testable devices, certified testers, and test submissions
- ✅ Industrial Pretreatment: Monitoring industrial dischargers and ensuring permit compliance (launching Q2 2025)
- ✅ Stormwater Management: Streamlining inspections, monitoring, and NPDES compliance reporting
This isn’t just feature expansion – it’s a fundamental reimagining of how water compliance technology should work. By bringing these solutions together, we’re creating seamless workflows across programs, unified data reporting, and a single platform that evolves with regulatory needs.
A Natural Partnership Built on Shared Values
This acquisition isn’t just a business transaction – it’s the formalization of a collaborative relationship years in the making:
“Stormwater is evolving quickly, and cities need tools that can evolve with it. Joining SwiftComply gives us the opportunity to keep building great software – but now as part of something even bigger.” – Jason Locklin, Founder of CloudCompli
We’ve partnered with the CloudCompli and NPDESPro teams on joint customer projects, shared industry insights, and aligned on a vision for the future of water compliance. This acquisition brings together not just complementary products, but teams that share a deep commitment to supporting the people who protect our water resources.
