What New Century Software does
New Century Software (operating as 'New Century Software by MISTRAS') is a Fort Collins, Colorado-headquartered software company that develops GIS-enabled pipeline integrity management solutions for oil and gas pipeline operators in the United States and Canada. Founded in 1994 by Ron Brush and acquired by MISTRAS Group in 2019, the company targets energy transportation operators across gas transmission, hazardous liquids, gathering, distribution, new construction, and production pipelines. The company operates from a second office in Houston, TX opened in 2015 alongside the launch of the Integrity Plus services division, and employs between 101 and 250 people.
The company offers 16 products organized across four categories: Data Management (Facility Manager, Centerline Design Toolkit, SpatialSynchronizer, Express Loader), Integrity Management (Gas HCA Analyst, Spatial Risk Analyst, Spill Impact Analyst, InTrack, Alignment Manager), Mapping & Reporting (SheetCutter Pro, SheetCutter Server Pro, TemplateDesigner Pro, and the legacy TemplateDesigner for ArcMap), and Web Products (Line Hierarchy, Station Locator, Sheet Viewer) for ArcGIS Portal/Online. All products are built on Esri's ArcGIS platform and support the PODS, UPDM, and APDM data models. Differentiated technical capabilities include FLO-2D-based spill modeling for Spill Impact Analyst, weld-to-weld alignment of in-line inspection (ILI) data in Alignment Manager, and what the company describes as the first server-based alignment sheet generator (SheetCutter Server Pro). The company is an Esri Gold Partner and co-founded the PODS Association in 1998, a co-founding position that confers industry-standard authority over pipeline data models.
The business generates revenue through two streams: enterprise software licensing (described as subscription/recurring with annual support and maintenance) and professional services spanning pipeline integrity management consulting, PODS implementation, enterprise GIS deployment, data management, and compliance support. Pricing is exclusively quote-based with no public disclosure. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales complemented by Esri-channel distribution, with marketing concentrated on industry conferences (Esri Energy Resources GIS Conference, PPIM, International Pipeline Conference), webinars, content marketing, and LinkedIn. Named enterprise references include TC Energy and Enable Midstream.
