ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Assurant, Inc. (NYSE: AIZ), a premier global protection company that safeguards and services connected devices, homes and automobiles in partnership with the world’s leading brands, today announced that it has acquired the portfolio of mobile device test automation technology from OptoFidelity, a leading provider of advanced optical metrology systems for mobile devices. Assurant’s continued deployment of OptoFidelity’s device testing solutions across its Device Care Centers underscores its commitment to operational excellence and the strategic acquisition of OptoFidelity’s test automation technology portfolio reinforces Assurant’s focus on investing in technologies that enhance efficiency, accelerate delivery, and create greater value for its partners.

“Speed and accuracy are critical in device processing, repair, and refurbishment. With the seamless integration of OptoFidelity’s mobile device test automation technology, we can re-purpose a greater volume of devices, with enhanced precision and efficiency, all in-house,” said Brandon Johnson, SVP of Supply Chain at Assurant. “As the Certified Pre-Owned device market rapidly grows, this acquisition positions us to meet rising demand, uphold our high-quality standards, and drive greater circularity by reusing devices from trade-in and other sources for our partners.”

OptoFidelity’s technology improves operational efficiency and further strengthens Assurant’s ability to scale, optimize resources, and easily integrate with existing processes to support future innovation. The modular technology adapts quickly to changing production volumes and testing needs while consistently delivering high quality results at any scale across both iOS and Android devices. This acquisition is another step in Assurant’s roadmap for automation and robotics across its Device Care Centers—expanding on its ability to deliver rigorously tested Certified Pre-Owned devices to the market at a high Units Per Hour (UPH) rate.

Founded in 2005, OptoFidelity produces advanced mobile device testing systems known for precision, repeatability, and traceability. In the 20 years since its founding, the company has delivered over 9,000 test systems to mobile carriers, manufacturers, and retailers worldwide. The acquisition of its mobile device test automation portfolio aligns with Assurant’s Global Connected Living business strategy and brings significant synergies and growth potential.
