Sopra Steria is today announcing an alliance with Inbotiqa, the provider of next-generation Intelligent Business Email solutions, extending its range of services answering the need for greater security and regulatory compliance across communications.

Inbotiqa’s software is designed to substantially improve individual, team and company productivity, while dramatically reducing conduct risk and cost. Sopra Steria is providing the first Go to Market alliance for Inbotiqa, offering the resale, licensing, deployment and support of the solution for businesses of all sizes and levels of complexity across the UK.

The collaboration enables a new way for businesses to transform their email services with intelligence and automation. As firms across the financial services industry, utility providers, and public sector bodies all struggle to cope with the increasing cost and compliance requirements of systematic workflow-related e-mail, Sopra Steria and Inbotiqa are responding with services that offer all-new levels of clarity, control and assurance to their operations.

Craig Wilson, Managing Director of Financial Services at Sopra Steria UK said: “The pace of regulatory change is as relentless as the march of technology and keeping up is vital for organisations in every field. It’s especially true for our clients in the financial services sector, who are under incredible pressure to ensure internal communications and those with customers are conducted in a controlled, measurable and above all compliant way. We recognised in Inbotiqa an excellent opportunity to extend the level of regulatory assurance and peace of mind we offer our clients. We are thrilled to be their first strategic delivery partner, and to bring their innovation to the consultancy we offer our customers.”

Liza Russell, CEO at Inbotiqa said: “As a consultancy offering solutions and transformation support to some of the UK’s largest and most complex organisations, Sopra Steria understands precisely the importance of intelligent business email in ensuring success. We are very happy to be working with a business whose scale enables us to bring our solution to an ever-wider audience, as well as channels to future growth across Europe.”
