Mitta

What Mitta does

Mitta is a privately held Finnish surveying and geotechnical consulting company founded in 1989, headquartered in Oulu, Finland, operating through wholly owned subsidiaries Mitta Oy (Finland) and Mitta AB (Sweden) with approximately 500 professionals across more than 30 locations. The company positions itself as the market leader in terrain information production and processing for the infrastructure sector in Finland and Sweden and serves customers across the full construction value chain — from design to production — including construction and infrastructure, mining and energy, hydropower and dam operators, nuclear waste management organizations, and heavy industry.

The company's core services comprise surveying, geotechnical consulting, accredited laboratory testing (including bentonite clay barrier analysis for nuclear waste repositories at the Clay Technology AB unit in Lund and Vantaa), environmental consulting, and IoT-based continuous monitoring (integrating Wiiste, Aistio, and EHP systems). Specialty capabilities include drone-based lidar for snow measurement and tunnel surveys, scientific numerical modeling (FLAC2D, 3DEC, CODE_BRIGHT, COMSOL Multiphysics) for long-term repository safety assessments, and measurement equipment reselling (Trimos, Sylvac, QollerFröhlich, QMSOFT). In March 2026, Mitta acquired eSite from Dovre Group Oyj, adding SaaS-based 3D reality capture and digital twin services for industrial facilities.

Mitta generates revenue primarily through project-based professional services fees across surveying, geotechnical, environmental, laboratory, and monitoring engagements, supplemented by recurring SaaS subscriptions from the eSite digital twin platform. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting large enterprise, institutional, and government customers in Finland and Sweden, with international work delivered through key customers in Europe, the United States, and Canada. Long-term, multi-year service agreements (e.g., Kemijoki Oy's renewed five-year hydropower contract) and credentials such as ISO 9001/14001, lab accreditations, and a Facility Security Clearance Certificate (2025) underpin both customer stickiness and qualification for sensitive contracts.
