London and Paris – – October 06, 2026 -- Unit4 has acquired Napta, a Paris-based resource management and skills-intelligence platform, to strengthen its position in the professional and business services vertical. Napta serves customers in 70 countries and will continue operating under its existing brand, leadership and open ecosystem model.
Napta retains independence while gaining Unit4's global investment
Co-founder and CEO Arnaud Caldichoury will continue leading Napta, with all three co-founders staying on. Unit4 plans to increase investment in Napta's product roadmap and extend its reach to accelerate the company's goal of becoming Europe's reference platform for resource management and skills intelligence.
Combined platform targets full professional services lifecycle
The deal pairs Napta's AI-assisted staffing, skills intelligence and capacity planning tools with Unit4's ERP, FP&A and HCM solutions. The companies intend to connect Napta's skills and resource capacity data with Unit4's project, financial and people data, giving firms a single view of staffing decisions and their financial impact. Unit4 and Napta already share customers running both platforms in parallel and will continue building integrations with other major ERP, PSA and HCM systems.
