highest score for integrity & risk management in 2026 global apm benchmark

THE HAGUE, Netherlands – April 28, 2026 – Cenosco, a leading provider of cloud-based Integrity Management Systems (IMS), has been recognized in the Green Quadrant: Asset Performance Management (APM) Solutions (2026) report by independent research and advisory firm Verdantix.

The Benchmark Result

In a rigorous evaluation of the global APM market, Cenosco achieved the highest score (2.9/3.0) for integrity and risk management across all vendors included in the 2026 benchmark, confirming its position as the deepest-domain solution available for high-risk process industries. The report also recognized Cenosco’s strong capabilities in reliability analysis, scoring 2.0/3.0.

The Verdantix report finds that Cenosco offers “market-leading tools for asset integrity and risk management,” noting that its IMS platform “centers on engineering studies that drive integrity, reliability and safety, offering structured workflows for reliability-centered maintenance (RCM), risk-based inspections (RBIs), hazard and operability (HAZOP), layers of protection analysis (LOPA) and safety instrumented function (SIF) studies.” Verdantix, Green Quadrant: Asset Performance Management (APM) Solutions, April 2026

“As industrial operators face growing pressure to manage aging assets under increasing regulatory scrutiny, solutions with deep integrity and risk management capabilities are becoming critical.” Verdantix, Green Quadrant: Asset Performance Management (APM) Solutions, April 2026

Why This Matters

The global process industry is managing an aging asset base under increasing regulatory scrutiny. At the same time, operators must navigate the growing demands of digital transformation. For operators in oil and gas, chemicals, and utilities, where equipment failure can mean environmental catastrophes, loss of life, or billions in unplanned downtime. As a result, the quality of integrity management software is not a procurement decision. It is a risk decision.

Cenosco’s IMS Suite was built specifically for this reality. Grounded in more than 20 years of operational experience across high-risk process industries and aligned with API 581 standards, it reflects engineering depth that general-purpose platforms cannot replicate.

“In industries where failure is not an option, engineering depth is everything,” said Rahul Kejewal, CEO of Cenosco. “Achieving the highest score for Integrity & Risk Management in the Verdantix benchmark reflects what our team has built over decades, not a product, but a body of knowledge that keeps critical assets safe.”

A Firm in Motion

This recognition comes at a significant moment for Cenosco. In 2025, Cenosco secured a growth investment led by Summit Partners, with participation from Fortino Capital. This was a clear vote of confidence in both the platform and the market opportunity ahead.

Furthermore, this latest recognition builds on Cenosco’s consistent track record with Verdantix. In 2025, independent analysts included Cenosco in the Smart Innovators: Asset Integrity and Risk Management Software report, recognizing the platform’s market-leading capabilities in inspection management and process safety.

To strengthen its ecosystem further, Cenosco has strategic partnerships with Hexagon for digital twin capabilities, Microsoft for scalable cloud-native delivery, Technip Energies for engineering lifecycle integration, and Capgemini, MaxGrip and Wipro for enterprise-scale deployment and managed services.

In addition, the IMS platform integrates seamlessly with leading enterprise systems, including SAP, IBM Maximo, AVEVA PI, and Honeywell Batch Historian, ensuring a smooth flow of data across existing industrial infrastructure.

With 144 employees across four offices and customers including Motiva Enterprises, Santos and Shell, Cenosco operates at the intersection of deep engineering expertise and modern cloud delivery.

Proven Results

In partnership with MaxGrip, a major US petroleum refining organization implemented Cenosco IMS to standardize and modernize maintenance practices across a rapidly expanding multi-site fleet. The results were significant: a 70% reduction in RCM implementation time, a rise in maintenance compliance from 75% to almost 100%, and a 30% increase in process efficiency.

Beyond implementation, Cenosco has also introduced AI-driven capabilities that summarize condition histories from inspection documents and surface upcoming schedules. Consequently, teams spend far less time searching for critical information, accelerating time-to-value for new deployments.
