MNC Software and SuiteLife
Systems, two innovators and industry-leading real-time broadcast monitoring and control
solutions providers, have merged, forming a formidable and strategic alliance. The newly
formed entity, Leeward Software, will make its debut at NAB Show 2024 (booth #W2367)
from April 14-17 in Las Vegas.

The merger is a natural succession to a long-standing partnership, as the two companies
have successfully collaborated on numerous projects since 2022. Leeward Software is the
culmination of a shared vision and a powerhouse poised to transform how broadcasters,
telecommunication network providers, production facilities, studios, and media technology
companies monitor and control the functional health of their complex networks,
infrastructure, buildings, and systems. With thousands of installations across the US and
around the globe, as well as a combined legacy of excellence and shared commitment to
innovation, Leeward Software is strategically positioned to serve the evolving needs of its
customers across diverse media markets and ecosystems.
By harnessing the combined expertise and resources of MNC Software and SuiteLife
Systems, the company will offer a more comprehensive suite of network management,
monitoring, and control solutions that address a wider range of needs and applications. This
merger unlocks synergies that will bring greater value to customers, employees, and
partners. Whether organizations require system monitoring in extreme and remote locations,
a broadcast studio environment, or cloud and cloud-hybrid distribution, customers can now
access a broader range of solutions and services to address monitoring and control
challenges and optimize their workflows.

Both companies have over 45 years of combined industry experience serving the broadcast
and media industries, and together their talent, expertise, resources, and technology offers
more breadth, depth, and scale to customers worldwide. Leeward Software aims to help
customers improve operational efficiencies, elevate operational confidence, and provide the

right-fit scalable solutions and deployments for the highest levels of operational visibility and
transparency across an entire organization.

Whether pre-empting fault event occurrences or enhancing troubleshooting and recovery,
the company’s comprehensive solutions -- including Axess, Mosaic, and Tessera software
and GPX Pro hardware -- put every process, domain, and facility under an intuitive and
customizable single-pane-of-glass monitoring view.

“We are thrilled to announce the formation of Leeward Software,” commented James
Bloomfield, President of MNC Software. “Our strategic vision and priorities are aligned, and
by leveraging our combined strengths, we can empower our customers to achieve new
levels of network performance, reliability, and security.”
“This merger is a transformative milestone for both companies and for the broader
monitoring and control market,” added Nigel Brownett, President of SuiteLife Systems. “We
have the right balance of complementary solutions, skills, and diversity to drive innovation
and growth, and I am truly excited about the future we will build together and deliver for our
customers, employees, and partners.”
