Validata Group, provider of the most integrated Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) solution for the Banking and Finance Sector, today announced that Sierra Systems, the information technology and consulting services company headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, has joined its Alliance program.
Clients today are looking beyond traditional functional testing technology and the wish to transform their key processes which affect “Go Live” milestones.
Along with the benefits of Cloud Computing applications – increased functionality, superior workflow enhancements, rapid deployment and the most integrated configuration management solutions with Temenos T24™ – Validata SAS clients also gain competitive advantage with better project control over the testing lifecycle, and improved quality processes. The company’s pay for usage model will help our clients move away from CAPEX to a pure OPEX business model which is predictably priced and scalable.
Gary Rhodes, COO and Alliances Director of Validata Group, says: “I am pleased to welcome Sierra Systems to our Alliance Team. Sierra Systems has progressed in its innovation and its working partnership with Validata Group. It’s a strategic relationship in which we both leverage continuous improvement and continually help improve process for ourselves and our clients.”
The three key factors which differentiate Validata include the modular software solution based on SOA architecture. The second being the better integration between the process of software and the product lifecycle. We are blending QA management and process Integration into our ALM offerings; we offer a kind of a merged approach which brings testing and reporting in the Application Lifecycle. The third is the team of partners with a keen sense of client relations.
“Sierra is thrilled to bring our financial services expertise to the Validata Group Alliance Program. We will offer a wide variety of consulting services that will improve operational efficiencies and mitigate risk for financial institutions,“ states Simon Mok, vice president at Sierra Systems. “Like Validata Group, Sierra Systems is committed to providing end-to-end solutions and we are proud to be working with them in vastly improving quality and reducing timelines in delivering real, measureable ROI for the banking and financial sector”.
