ProClip USA Acquires INOVATIV, Forging Mobile Workflow Powerhouse

LOS ANGELES, CA – April 17, 2026 – ProClip USA, a leader in precision-engineered mounting solutions, has announced its strategic acquisition of INOVATIV, Inc., the category-defining manufacturer of premium mobile workstations. The deal, orchestrated by exclusive financial advisor Impact Capital Group, brings together two brands renowned for quality and engineering, signaling a major push to dominate professional mobile workflows across creative, industrial, and defense sectors.

A Union of Precision and Mobility

The acquisition represents a powerful combination of complementary strengths. On one side is INOVATIV, a brand that has become synonymous with high-performance mobile workstations in demanding creative environments. Professionals in film, photography, and broadcasting rely on INOVATIV's modular carts to protect, organize, and transport mission-critical equipment. Known for their uncompromising build quality, tool-free assembly, and versatile design, these workstations are considered an industry standard, commanding a loyal following and high resale value. Their products are a common sight on film sets and in digital imaging technician (DIT) bays, where efficiency and reliability are paramount.

On the other side is ProClip USA, a specialist in creating custom mounting solutions for mobile and digital devices. Backed by private equity firm Prospect Partners, ProClip has carved out a niche by engineering vehicle-specific mounts that integrate seamlessly into dashboards without drilling or adhesives. This focus on a precision fit and high-quality materials has made them a top choice for both commercial fleets and consumers seeking durable, rattle-free solutions for phones, tablets, and GPS systems. Prospect Partners' investment strategy, which focuses on scaling high-potential companies through operational improvements and add-on acquisitions, provides the strategic and financial backbone for this ambitious merger.

The transaction pairs INOVATIV's deep understanding of professional workflows and robust system design with ProClip’s expertise in scalable manufacturing and precision device mounting. "Their team has built a remarkable brand, and this transaction creates a strong foundation for continued innovation and success,” said Michael Cohen, CEO of Impact Capital Group, who advised INOVATIV on the sale.

A Strategic Push into New Industrial Frontiers

While the synergy between the two companies is clear, the acquisition's true ambition lies in its forward-looking strategy: a concerted expansion into the industrial, defense, and enterprise sectors. The press release highlights this goal, and market trends suggest the timing is opportune. The global demand for rugged, mobile computing solutions is exploding, driven by Industry 4.0 initiatives, supply chain optimization, and military modernization programs.

The industrial sector, for instance, is projected to see its mobile computers market grow to nearly $6 billion by 2025 as factories and warehouses increasingly rely on mobile technology for data access and equipment monitoring. Similarly, the rugged equipment market, essential for both industrial and defense applications, is on a trajectory to surpass $11 billion by 2035. INOVATIV already has a foothold in this space with its "Tactical Utility Carts" and "INOVATIV for Enterprise" lines, but the merger with ProClip provides the manufacturing scale and mounting technology needed for a full-scale assault on these markets.

The combination could yield highly specialized products, such as mobile diagnostic workstations for field technicians in the energy sector or ruggedized communication hubs for military units. ProClip’s ability to design and produce custom, secure mounts for sensitive electronics, paired with INOVATIV’s proven mobile cart platforms, creates a formidable offering for environments where failure is not an option. This move positions the combined entity to compete for lucrative contracts in sectors that demand the highest levels of durability, customization, and reliability.

Navigating the Deal: The Role of Expert Advisory

Facilitating a transaction of this strategic complexity required specialized guidance. Impact Capital Group, a lower-middle market investment banking firm, served as the exclusive financial advisor to INOVATIV. Their role was crucial in navigating the M&A process and ensuring the company found a partner that aligned with its long-term vision. The firm specializes in advising high-growth companies on strategic initiatives, leveraging deep industry knowledge to optimize transaction value and terms.

For specialized, founder-led companies like INOVATIV, partnering with an advisory firm like Impact Capital Group is often essential for achieving a successful exit or strategic partnership. These advisors bring discipline and expertise to the process, from valuation and marketing to negotiation and closing, allowing company leadership to remain focused on operations.

Patrick Blewett, CEO of INOVATIV, lauded the firm’s contribution. “This was an important and highly strategic milestone for INOVATIV, and we’re grateful to Impact Capital Group for their guidance throughout the process," he stated. "Amy and Michael were instrumental in navigating every stage of the transaction and played a critical role in ensuring we found the right long-term Partner. Bringing deep expertise and discipline to the process, we couldn’t have asked for a better advisor during this transition.” This sentiment underscores the value of expert M&A advisory in the lower-middle market, where strategic fit can be more critical than a simple financial transaction.

The Future of the Mobile Workstation

For the thousands of creative and technical professionals who have invested in the INOVATIV ecosystem, the acquisition raises questions about the future. The most likely outcome appears to be one of enhancement rather than disruption. The fusion of ProClip's scalable manufacturing and INOVATIV's design-led approach could lead to an evolution of existing product lines, potentially incorporating more integrated mounting options and even more robust construction.

The influx of capital and manufacturing prowess from ProClip and its backer, Prospect Partners, could accelerate INOVATIV's product development cycle, bringing new innovations to market faster. End-users may see a new generation of workstations that are not only ideal for a film set but are also perfectly configured for a field engineer, a first responder's mobile command unit, or a technician on an aerospace assembly line.

By combining INOVATIV’s cult-like following in the creative world with ProClip’s established presence in vehicle and enterprise mounting, the newly formed entity is poised to redefine what a professional mobile workstation can be. The strategic alliance moves beyond a simple consolidation, creating a platform for genuine innovation that could set new standards for efficiency, mobility, and durability across a much broader range of professional disciplines.
