Application Management

In a deal worth £500k in the first 2 years, Sopra Group provides a full-time application support team and related software development services to a major Fund Management Company's Group Business Systems division.

The client's decision to outsource its application support to us enabled its own IT staff to focus on key development projects that will help grow the business.  Before we were involved in supporting their applications, it was proving very costly and time-consuming for the client to manage the individual contractors and difficult to source staff with the appropriate knowledge and skills to meet its business requirements.

By having a dedicated team focusing on Applications Management the client has removed the headache of finding and managing contractors and greatly improved the consistency and quality of the support service offered to their business users.  The Fund Management Company chose to work with Sopra Group because we are well known in the finance industry and have a reputation as a trusted supplier, with the ability to provide highly skilled staff to meet client demands.
