Technology purpose-built for exceptional government and public safety agencies
GovSoft Holdings is a family of best-in-class software and IT-enabled companies that empower government agencies to streamline administrative workflows and strengthen citizen engagement.
What Makes GovSoft Unique
Patient Capital
Unlike traditional private equity and venture capital funds with mandated investment timelines and fundraising cycles, GovSoft’s capital is truly patient, enabling us to be long-term partners to forge enduring companies and amplify entrepreneur legacies over decades. This reduces distractions for the management of GovSoft’s operating companies because we don’t have to worry about raising capital or prepping for a sale. We give founders the room to operate, grow, and plan the succession of their companies on their own timelines.
Aligned Strategy
Decisions about operations, hiring, and product development are made to maximize the long-term durability of businesses. We work with management to shape strategy that benefits customers and employees — not to meet quarterly earnings reports or artificial fund deadlines.
Mission Focus
We focus solely on government and public safety technology. As GovTech operators ourselves, our team understands the regulatory environment, go-to-market motion, and the critical nature of your products. We preserve your culture, retain key staff, and provide resources to ensure continued excellence in serving agencies and citizens.
Our Community
We believe the best government service is fostered through mission-driven and patient ownership, retention of employees and customers, and preservation of founder legacies. We do not have traditional private equity or venture capital investors that need a quick win — we build companies to last.
The GovSoft team was a great partner for Permitium. They collaborated with us to structure a transaction that worked for our needs, were open-minded and reasonable to work with through the diligence and acquisition processes, and stuck to their word throughout. More importantly, they invested in growing Permitium, continuing its mission and building on the business that we created.

Selling Your Business to GovSoft
1. Initial Conversation
We start with a confidential discussion to learn about your business, values, and goals. You will learn about our long-term vision and how we operate.
2. Evaluation & Alignment
If there is a fit, we conduct thoughtful due diligence covering customers, product, team, and financials. We focus on understanding your culture and mission — not just the numbers.
3. Offer & Closing
We structure a fair offer that provides liquidity for founders and employees while preserving incentives to grow. Our patient capital model allows flexibility in timing and structure.
4. Integration & Support
After closing, we work collaboratively to integrate light-touch back-office systems and provide resources where needed. Your brand, leadership and culture are maintained — we are here to support, not to overhaul.
A Home for Your GovTech Business to Thrive
Being a part of the GovSoft family unlocks opportunities that independent companies often are unable to access alone. Together, we build enduring, purpose-led businesses focused on making government work for the people.
Access to Talent & Expertise
Acquisitions are a proven way to access industry-leading talent. Our network of GovTech specialists and engineers helps you accelerate sales, product development, and customer success.
New Markets & Customers
Mergers and acquisitions enable you to explore new markets quickly. Through our holding company platform and existent relationships, you can reach agencies and jurisdictions nationwide (or internationally!).
Economies of Scale
Operating at a larger scale reduces costs and increases profits. We consolidate back-office functions and negotiate better terms with vendors so you can invest more in your mission.
Diversification & Stability
A diverse portfolio of products and services helps weather market cycles. As part of GovSoft, your business benefits from shared resources and support during tough periods.
Long-Term Value Creation
With our patient capital model, value for your equity is created over multiple cycles rather than a single exit. You will be able to participate in the growth of the entire GovSoft platform over time.
