Berlin-based GovTech company Polyteia and Sopra Steria enter into service partnership for the digitalization of administrations
[Berlin, 27.05.2024] - Polyteia has concluded a partnership with Sopra Steria Germany. The european technology company is the first service partner of the Berlin-based GovTech company. The service partnership was initiated by Sopra Steria Ventures Germany, the group's innovation unit. The cooperation enables Sopra Steria to develop and distribute its own products based on Polyteia's platform. The GovTech company benefits from the partner's many years of experience and networking in the public sector.
The Polyteia platform for all administrative areas (such as human resources, health, etc.) enables administrative staff, with and without programming skills, to analyze data, process texts and create reports together with colleagues. With Polyteia's standardized solutions, users take on repetitive challenges in the public sector, for example in school, personnel or financial management. The demand for this is high. Darius Selke, Head of Sopra Steria Ventures Germany, emphasizes: "The partnership was formed due to specific customer demand for technologies such as Polyteia. This gives us the opportunity to noticeably relieve the pressure on local authorities, where the pressure to innovate is greater than ever before, and to provide them with an effective solution in a short space of time."
Through the "Polyteia Data Analyst" certification program, Sopra Steria's consultants were trained to develop their own solutions for the public sector using Polyteia software. Polyteia shares its many years of experience in the design and development of solutions for a wide range of administrative areas and provides the necessary technical expertise and proven methods.
Faruk Tuncer, founder and CEO of Polyteia, is delighted about the newly established collaboration: "The partnership combines Polyteia's innovative strength with Sopra Steria's industry and specialist knowledge. As a technology company, Sopra Steria has been supporting the digital transformation of public authorities for years. We are therefore delighted to welcome Sopra Steria as our first service partner. We are convinced that they will create their own promising products for their customers with the Polyteia software and thus contribute to their efficiency and performance.”
Ron de Jonge, Operating Officer & Deputy Head Public Sector Germany at Sopra Steria, underlines the importance of the Berlin-based GovTech company's municipal focus in the collaboration: "If you think the digitalization of administration through to the end, you have to think about communication with citizens. This takes place at the municipal level. Together, we can design ideal solutions as individually as possible and implement them quickly.”
Sopra Steria Ventures Germany allows its clients to make rapid use of innovative technologies. The business unit, which acts as a strategic "matchmaker" between its existing and new customers and young companies, supports public institutions and companies in utilizing the great innovation potential of European start-ups and relies on an excellent ecosystem with strong partners from administration, business and research.
Through the partnership, Polyteia plans to continue the growth and scaling course of recent years and to strengthen synergy effects within the GovTech ecosystem and allow customers to participate in this. With a large number of successfully realized IT implementations and takeovers of operational projects, Sopra Steria is the perfect partner for Polyteia to initiate the service partnership model.
