Achilles acquires InfoControl to boost AI capabilities

Supply chain platform Achilles reports that it has acquired InfoControl, a Latin America-based artificial intelligence and contractor management company, to strengthen its capabilities in data processing and risk management.

The deal builds on an existing collaboration between the two firms and will bring InfoControl’s AI tools for document analysis, data extraction, and non-financial reporting into the Achilles platform.

Achilles says the acquisition will support the development of new data-driven features, improve its contractor management services, and expand its AI capabilities globally.

“Businesses are under increasing pressure to provide robust data in support of sustainability, due diligence, and disclosure frameworks such as CSRD, BRSR, LkSG, and Åpenhetsloven — while also navigating an increasingly complex global landscape,” said Paul Stanley, CEO at Achilles.

“Accessing high-quality, reliable data remains a major challenge. This acquisition strengthens Achilles’ ability to efficiently and effectively deliver intelligent insights with greater speed and accuracy, helping our customers manage risk and build more resilient supply chains. I’m delighted to welcome the InfoControl team to Achilles.”

Recent AI-powered additions to the Achilles platform prior to this acquisition include predictive risk scoring, real-time data validation, multilingual data mining, and automated supplier onboarding using pre-populated trusted data.

The acquisition follows Achilles’ previous deals to acquire GoSupply and Global Risk Management Solutions (GRMS), to expand its evaluation and compliance services.
