In June 2018, Fortive made a binding offer to buyJohnson & Johnson's Advanced Sterilization Products (ASP) business.[20] The deal was valued at $2.8 billion, made up of $2.7 billion in cash from Fortive and $0.1 billion of retained net receivables, and closed in April 2019.[21] Furthering their investment in healthcare, in November 2019 Fortive acquired Censis Technologies, aSaaS-based provider of inventory management in the surgical field, headquartered in Franklin, Tenn., from Riverside, a global private equity firm headquartered in Cleveland Ohio.

In June 2019 Industrial Scientific entered in a definitive agreement to buy Canadian based Intelex, a provider of SaaS-based Environmental, Health, Safety and Quality (EHSQ) management software.[27] The following month (July 2019), Industrial Scientific entered a definitive agreement to acquire SAFER Systems, a provider for the chemical, oil & gas, and transportation industries.[28]

Specifically, the spin off would includeGilbarco Veeder Root,Matco Tools, Hennessey, GTT, Teletrac Navman, and associated subsidiaries.[38] AnIPO was estimated to yield $1 billion, but was postponed in April 2020 due to uncertainty in the market stemming from theCOVID pandemic.[39] Instead, Fortive chose to spin the business off to shareholders in October 2020 without first having the IPO.[40][41] Upon separation, Vontier replacedNoble Energy as a member of theS&P 500.[42]

Innovation

[edit]

Historically, growth in Fortive's portfolio companies had primarily come from M&A activity and operational excellence under the vaunted Danaher Business System.[43] Fortive has sought to achieve organic growth through establishing a culture of experimentation and innovation. Early on, this meant working with Innovators DNA to incorporate best practices.[44] Fortive's approach has proved successful. Notable new product introductions have includedTektronix MS05X "Elemental",[45]Fluke's T6,[46] Invetech's Formulate and Fill platform,[47] Anderson-Negele's paperless recorder,[48] and Fluke's ii900.[49] In the middle of the COVID pandemic, when there was a shortage ofN-95 masks, ASP quickly innovated on existing technology to allow hospitals to clean masks.[50]

In May 2020, Fortive partnered withPioneer Square Labs (PSL) to launch tech startups.[51] In June 2020, Fortive, in partnership with PSL, launched TeamSense.[52]

Culture

[edit]

Fortive's culture dates back to theToyota Production System adopted by Danaher. At Fortive it has been branded as the Fortive Business System or FBS for short.[53] FBS has been referenced on multiple earnings calls as a key driver for sustained growth and operational excellence within the various operating companies.[54] Fortive's culture around integrity and compliance has led to several initiatives around Inclusion and Diversity.[55] Fortive has been named among the best places to work for LGBTQ Equality by the Human Rights Campaign several times.[56]

Fortive allows each of its associates a paid day of leave each year to volunteer in their local community.[57] In 2020,Newsweek named Fortive as one of their top 500 most responsible companies.[58]
