About Fortive Corporation
About Fortive Corporation
Fortive Corporation restructured its portfolio on June 28, 2025 by separating its Precision Technologies segment as Ralliant Corporation, a tax-free spin-off, focusing the company on two segments: Intelligent Operating Solutions and Advanced Healthcare Solutions, with a workforce of over 10,000 professionals in approximately 50 countries. Intelligent Operating Solutions brands include FLUKE, SERVICECHANNEL, GORDIAN, ACCRUENT, and INDUSTRIAL SCIENTIFIC; Advanced Healthcare Solutions brands include ASP, CENSIS, FLUKE BIOMEDICAL, LANDAUER, and PROVATION.
Fortive earns revenue through sales of instruments, software, and services to tens of thousands of industrial and healthcare customers. Intelligent Operating Solutions supplies test and measurement tools, facility and asset lifecycle software, and connected worker safety solutions to electrical engineers, facility managers, EHS professionals, and maintenance technicians across manufacturing, utilities, and communications industries. Advanced Healthcare Solutions addresses sterilization, biomedical testing, radiation dosimetry, and clinical documentation needs for hospital and surgical center operators. The company sells through direct and distributor channels; government entities represent a portion of each segment's revenue under agreements subject to statutes that apply to companies doing business with governments. Some specialty components depend on single or limited suppliers, though no single raw material supplier is described as material in aggregate. Fortive competes across highly fragmented markets against both multinational suppliers and regional specialists.
Show full overview
The Advanced Healthcare Solutions segment produces medical devices regulated by the U.S. FDA under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, with modifications to cleared devices potentially requiring new 510(k) filings and associated FDA user fees. Products for the European Economic Area must conform to the Medical Devices Regulation effective May 26, 2021, with a CE certificate from a notified body required before market access; the UK separately requires a UKCA Certificate. This multi-jurisdictional framework subjects AHS manufacturing facilities to routine FDA inspection and comparable foreign authority audits throughout the product lifecycle, and may result in ongoing compliance costs as requirements evolve.
