Octave Logo
Octave Live OnTour is a timely forum for the new company to show how its industrial software portfolio supports lifecycle intelligence, operational context, and AI-enabled decision support—helping asset-intensive organizations make better decisions across design, build, operate, and protect workflows. This first of Octave’s Live OnTour events is in Austin, Texas, on June 17-18-2026 (see below for the other global events and dates).
Octave, the software spin-off from Hexagon AB, brings together software assets across engineering, construction, geospatial intelligence, asset operations, quality, public safety, physical security, and industrial cybersecurity.
Industrial companies experience complexity through project delays, maintenance backlogs, quality failures, safety incidents, cybersecurity exposure, asset downtime, incomplete data, and poor handoffs between functions. The promise of lifecycle intelligence is that software can help connect those operational realities across the full asset lifecycle.
From Portfolio Rebrand to Lifecycle Strategy
The portfolio overview shows how broad the Octave software base is. In the Design pillar, the Octave Forte portfolio includes offerings tied to schematics, 3D modeling, engineering design and analysis, engineering information management, while the Octave Geomedia and Imagine solutions deliver geospatial intelligence. In the Build pillar, the firm positions Octave OnSite, Loop, and Sequence around construction, supply chain management, and project performance.
The Operate and Protect pillars extend the story further. Octave InService and Tempo address operations optimization. Octave Attune EAM and Attune APM and Octave Reliance address asset performance, EAM/APM, quality, compliance, and enterprise risk workflows. Octave OnCall and Coda address public safety and physical security. Octave Cyber Integrity addresses industrial cybersecurity.
Octave’s framework gives the company a practical way to speak to industrial organizations trying to reduce the gap between engineering intent, construction reality, operating performance, safety response, quality management, and risk mitigation.
ARC Advisory Group Perspective
Buyers should evaluate Octave Live OnTour as a roadmap signal. Octave’s Austin event matters because it reflects a larger market shift. Customers increasingly need software that helps them manage interconnected risk and performance.
Octave has a timely and credible story to tell. The company has meaningful assets across the industrial software landscape, and its Design, Build, Operate, and Protect framework is a sensible way to organize the portfolio.
For buyers, the event is a chance to assess roadmap direction, integration priorities, and the role of AI in lifecycle workflows. For partners, it is a chance to understand where Octave intends to sit in the industrial software ecosystem. For the broader market, it is a useful marker of where industrial software is heading.
The center of gravity is moving from digitized workflows to connected intelligence. Octave is now one of the companies with the portfolio breadth, market timing, and customer base to help define what that means at scale.
After the inaugural Octave Live OnTour event in Austin, Octave will then hold similar events during 2026 with a localized flavor in Rio De Janeiro from August 19-20; in Singapore from September 17-18, 2026; in Shanghai from September 22-23 and in Munich from October 13-14, 2026.
