TARGIT Decision Suite

TARGIT is a software provider founded in 1986 and headquartered in Aalborg, Denmark. The company serves nearly 8,000 customers (including OEMs), primarily in Europe and North America. In June 2025, the privately owned company was acquired by Forterro, a business software vendor focused on specialized products and services for industrial markets.

Forterro has operated for more than 40 years, with over 40 office locations and 2,500 employees worldwide. Through a series of acquisitions, it has built a portfolio of more than 20 products. Given TARGIT’s strong industry focus, the acquisition appears to be a strategic fit for both organizations.

TARGIT’s mission is to help businesses realize the full value of their data by leveraging decades of analytics expertise and deep experience in key verticals. With a strong emphasis on customer and partner relationships, TARGIT is well positioned to support companies of all sizes that require a fully integrated BI platform with rich vertical content. The vendor especially focuses on certain verticals including heavy equipment, truck & trailer and automotive dealerships, retail and C-stores, the public sector (especially in the Nordic region) and airport operators. Extensive prebuilt content with a particular focus on the automotive industry was added through the acquisition of TARGIT’s partner CalmCo, now acting as TARGIT Automotive. Besides adding verticals and content to its portfolio, the vendor maintains a partner network with an emphasis on partners with a strong vertical focus or specialization, including OEM partners.

TARGIT Decision Suite offers integrated self-service analysis, ad hoc reporting and dashboards with features for batch reporting, mobility, slideshows and data mashups. An installed client is used for data preparation, document creation and analyses. The Document Model is intended to reduce the effort required to design content and make it available across all devices and output types. Dashboard applications and visuals can be embedded through a no-footprint web client into other applications and web portals. For mobile users, a dedicated client is available as well. The suite can be deployed on premises or used as a managed option from TARGIT (TARGIT Cloud), which is hosted on Microsoft Azure.

TARGIT uses Azure cloud infrastructure and services for its core platform and adopts a flexible and agnostic approach to data platforms and the use of AI and ML services, opting to leverage the vendors and solutions best suited for each specific purpose.
