What Nechi Group does

Nechi Group is a privately held Barcelona-based technology group operating through NECHI INGENIERIA, S.L.P. and its wholly-owned subsidiary AMAISYS TECHNOLOGIES, S.L.U. The company designs, integrates, and maintains building management systems, industrial automation, and IoT solutions for enterprise clients across hospitality, retail, corporate, industrial, broadcasting, and emerging smart-city and precision-agriculture verticals. Its core product is the InVendi BMS platform, a multi-protocol building management system supporting BACnet, LonWorks, KNX, Modbus, SNMP, and OPC, complemented by InVendi Cloud (industrial maintenance management), InVendi BMS Editor (integrator project-planning tool), AR Insight (augmented-reality system for hydraulic component monitoring), and Digital Twin Copilot (natural-language interface for industrial digital twins).

The group monetizes through four streams: recurring software licensing and maintenance for InVendi products; engineering and consulting services covering strategic design, legalization, project management, and technical auditing; one-time automation and control system integration work including SCADA and BMS deployments; and training/education courses on exponential technologies. Go-to-market is sales-led and project-based, driven by direct enterprise engagement, website contact forms, case-study-led demand generation, and an emerging certified integrator channel for InVendi BMS Editor. Marketing relies on social media presence (LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube), content marketing, and selective industry event participation.

Named enterprise customers include Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Hotel Diagonal Zero, Antena 3, Coca-Cola Cobega, and Mondelēz. The company holds PYME INNOVADORA (Innovative SME) certification valid until 21 July 2028, GDPR/CCPA compliance posture, ENS Nivel Medio cybersecurity certification via its Amaisys subsidiary, and has secured public R&D co-financing through Spain's AEI program under EU NextGenerationEU funds for the Digital Twin Copilot project. Leadership consists of Director General Héctor Colado García and Sergio Colado García, suggesting family ownership, with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity.

Core offering

Nechi Group designs, develops, and sells proprietary building management and industrial automation software — primarily the InVendi suite (InVendi BMS, InVendi Cloud, InVendi BMS Editor), augmented-reality system AR Insight, and Digital Twin Copilot — and delivers them together with engineering consulting, system integration (SCADA, BMS, IoT), installation, legalizations, and ongoing maintenance services for buildings and industrial facilities. Customers span hospitality, retail, corporate, industrial, smart city, precision agriculture, and sports/health sectors.

Product overview

Nechi Group offers a suite of technology solutions centered around their InVendi building management system portfolio and R&D+i products. The core InVendi BMS platform provides efficient building installation management with native support for multiple automation protocols (BACnet, KNX, Modbus, LonWorks, SNMP, OPC). This core product is complemented by InVendi Cloud for industrial maintenance management and InVendi BMS Editor for integrator project planning. The company's R&D+i division has developed AR Insight, a modular augmented reality system for industrial monitoring and maintenance, and Digital Twin Copilot, a natural language interface for industrial digital twin interaction. Together, these products form an integrated approach to building automation, industrial digitalization, and AI-enhanced operations management.

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Schneider Electric: Global leader in building automation, energy management, and industrial automation (EcoStruxure). Competes with Nechi across the full BMS, SCADA, and digital-twin stack but at vastly larger scale and with a broader portfolio.
• Siemens Smart Infrastructure: Operates Desigo CC and related BMS platforms alongside industrial automation. Overlaps directly with InVendi BMS in building automation and with Nechi's SCADA/digital-twin work in industrial segments.
• Honeywell Building Technologies: Major BMS and energy management incumbent (Honeywell Forge, Niagara Framework). Directly competes with InVendi in multi-protocol building integration, particularly in hospitality and commercial real estate.
• ABB: Industrial automation and smart-building player with portfolio including Cylon BMS. Competes with Nechi in SCADA, building controls, and increasingly in industrial digital-twin applications.

Direct peers

• Johnson Controls: Pure-play building automation specialist (Metasys, OpenBlue). Closely comparable BMS competitor to Nechi, with stronger global presence but similar focus on integrated building controls and energy optimization.
• Distech Controls: Specialist in KNX-native and BACnet building automation with strong hospitality and commercial presence. Closely matches Nechi's KNX/BACnet-centric InVendi positioning and target verticals.
• KMC Controls: Mid-sized US-based BMS vendor with strong protocol-agnostic controller lineup (BACnet, Niagara). Comparable to Nechi in multi-protocol integration and focus on smaller-to-mid commercial buildings.
• HMS Networks (Intesis): Gateway and protocol-conversion specialist (Intesis, Anybus). Competes with Nechi at the integration layer where BACnet/KNX/Modbus interoperability is the core value proposition.
• Iconics (Mitsubishi Electric): SCADA/HMI and building analytics software vendor (GENESIS64, IoTWorx). Directly comparable to Nechi's SCADA and InVendi Cloud industrial maintenance capabilities.

Emerging players

• Cognizant Smart Buildings / Thoughtwire: Digital-twin focused smart building software vendor. Comparable to Nechi's Digital Twin Copilot direction, though at an earlier stage of commercialization and with a different geographic focus.
