Harris buys MSG
Harris Computer Systems finalizes its buyout of BC-based Municipal Solutions Group. The Ottawa-based subsidiary of Toronto’s Constellation Software Inc. has acquired nearly all the assets of the software company, including the shares of its operating subsidiary Municipal Software Corp. but not MSG’s web-based Local Government Manager product, which automates such processes as the issuance of building permits, codes enforcement and city planning. The transaction, which will bolster Harris’s land management solution practice, will add more than 125 customers. Financial terms have not been revealed.
