ATOS : Two-speed IT policy becomes a reality with Atos and OutSystems
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Paris, Amstelveen, 16 May 2017 - Atos, a global leader in digital
transformation, announces its partnership with OutSystems, the company that
provides the number one platform for low-code application development, to offer
its customers an ideal platform to speed up application delivery. Now clients
can modernize their application landscape by rapidly rebuilding legacy
applications and building mobile and web applications. Two-speed-IT enables
businesses to update legacy apps whilst developing new mobile and web apps to
support new business.
Low-code platform
Atos has chosen OutSystems as a strategic partner to develop mobile, web and
business applications. When used with an agile approach, timelines are reduced
to just weeks for an initial delivery, and days for updates. The joint market
approach focuses on Benelux first, followed by other countries in Europe.
The joint service is particularly interesting to customers whose ability to
innovate is slowed down by their legacy applications. Using OutSystems will
speed up application delivery, which are intuitive by nature, and which can be
deployed on cross-platforms, such as Azure, Amazon and iOS.
Key advantages of low-code platforms:
* Rapidly delivers new functionality to existing applications
* Quickly develops new applications
* Supports new business opportunities and new business models
* Supports new ways of thinking, which is more agile and competitive, with
fewer specs, less programming and lower costs.
Peter 't Jong, CEO at Atos in Benelux & The Nordics explains: "Together with
OutSystems we can help our joint customers to modernize their application
landscapes and speed up the digitalization of their businesses to up to 10 times
faster. We believe that this innovation is a crucial tool in today's digital
transformation. We have a pioneering role to play in rolling-out low-code
platforms and showing our clients that innovation is in our DNA".
Paulo Rosado, CEO at OutSystems explains: "We see a large number of
organizations which are embracing low-code platforms and improving their agility
and competiveness by reducing the time-to-market of their applications. With our
solution they can increase their customer satisfaction and market share".
OutSystems named leader by Forrester
OutSystems has been recognized as a Leader in The Forrester Wave(TM): Mobile

Atos invests heavily in on-shore development teams at OutSystems, with the
ambition to certify 100 developers on the OutSystems platform before the end of
2017, and an increasing number over the coming years.
"We see an incredible opportunity with OutSystems, especially when it comes to
delivering modernization projects," said Kees Kranenburg, Portfolio manager
Application Transformation at Atos. "When our clients need to move away from
legacy systems and towards more modern, nimble technology, low-code is a
critical tool for successful delivery. In addition, we can quickly develop
mobile and web applications that are fully integrated with back-end systems, so
we can enter into new communication channels with consumers and citizens". He
concludes: "At Atos in Australia we have seen our first joint results with
OutSystems. In The Netherlands we have various Proof of Concepts that show
