Austrian software provider The Assistant Company (TAC) has acquired German software supplier HIS Solution GmbH, a move the company said will strengthen its market position in Europe.

Founded in 2003, HIS Solution GmbH operates in various spa-related markets, including medical, health, beauty and wellness.

TAC said the HIS location in Hanover will be an addition to TAC’s locations in Hartberg, Vienna and Chicago.

"We are convinced that we have managed to add value for HIS customers and partners as they can implement our software, Reservation Assistant,” said Thomas Roessler, managing director at TAC. “By pooling our know-­how, synergies in development and support can be used.”
