Atos Origin and Cordys signed a worldwide alliance to jointly offer innovative state-of-the-art BPM solutions. Through collaboration on the implementation of joint market offerings, the companies will use the Cordys Business Process Management Suite (BPMS) with a range of consulting, systems integration, application management, and managed operation services from Atos Origin.
The BPMS enables companies to design, execute, monitor and improve business processes spanning multiple systems and applications.

Jan Baan, CEO Cordys, stated: “Cordys is excited with Atos Origin as a global services partner. Atos Origin is one of the few companies that can offer the full range of business consulting, system integration and outsourcing services on a global scale. For Cordys, the business relationship is a natural extension, further enabling us to offer our leading BPM suite to a far broader market.”
Pieter Buijs, Chief Technology Officer, Atos Origin, added: “Atos Origin is a firm believer in the unique value that Cordys BPMS offers in today’s competitive marketplace, where the ability to quickly design and adapt business processes in concert with their underlying information systems is crucial to achieve operational effectiveness, based on lower IT cost. Cordys BPMS will help us optimize time to answer bids, reduce the costs of supporting several applications in multiple countries, and provide worldwide organizations with one single platform to distribute policies, procedures, presentations, and documents. By combining our BPM expertise with Cordys state-of-the-art solutions, we will continue to offer our clients significant added value for their business improvement initiatives.”
