SERVANTIS AND FUJITSU PARTNER TO BRING BEST-IN-CLASS
SOLUTIONS TO THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY
Servantis Serves as Strategic Addition to Fujitsu's
Interstage Centerstage Partner Program
May 25, 2004 - Sunnyvale, CA
- Fujitsu Software Corporation and Servantis today announced
a strategic partnership to deliver best-in-class solutions for the
healthcare industry, including automated claims processing and integration
of the complex networks of systems that link payers, providers,
and other healthcare organizations.
The partnership combines Fujitsu’s proven
Interstage® Suite of application infrastructure software products
with Servantis’ professional services and healthcare industry
expertise. Together, Fujitsu and Servantis offer a complete software
and services package to outsource the design, development, deployment
and management of scalable, customized mission-critical applications
for their mutual customers - securely and reliably.
As part of the agreement to co-market and deliver
solutions, Servantis joins Fujitsu Software Corporation's Interstage
Centerstage Partner Program. The collaborative program, which is
tuned to each partner’s needs, gives Servantis access to Fujitsu's
technology, support and expertise, in addition to joint marketing
and sales opportunities.
"The Servantis business model focuses on
delivering total technology solutions for our clients,” said
Jack Adams, president of Servantis. “That’s why the
Interstage Suite from Fujitsu is a perfect match with our professional
services expertise. We are excited to partner with a multi-billion-dollar
global leader to co-market best-in-class infrastructure software
products to the healthcare sector.”
Adams added, “Together, we will help our
clients transform their business performance through the intelligent
use of technology. Our solutions will allow them to simplify and
accelerate business processes, maximize revenue, lower operating
costs, improve customer service and time to market, and react quickly
to changing market requirements.”
Servantis brings to the Fujitsu partner portfolio
valuable domain expertise in the healthcare industry. Recently,
the firm’s consultants completed an engagement involving the
design and implementation of a scalable payer solution that manages
the real-time flow of claims data for one of the nation’s
largest families of health benefits companies. In conjunction with
leading software vendors, Servantis consultants worked hand-in-hand
with the client to deliver a powerful, yet flexible technology solution
that connects multiple health plans, each with disparate systems,
to a seamless e-business platform. Adding to the challenge, the
system was designed to be fully compliant with the privacy, security
and administrative simplification requirements of the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).
“The privacy and security demands of HIPAA
- together with greater market pressures to control costs,
streamline administration, and improve responsiveness - are
driving the need for healthcare providers to automate their processes,”
said Robert Sepanloo, senior vice president of Interstage at Fujitsu
Software Corporation. “We are thrilled to partner with Servantis,
an emerging leader in the healthcare sector, which shares the entrepreneurial
spirit that is core to our own corporate culture. With Servantis’
professional services expertise and our globally adopted infrastructure
software, we share an opportunity for rapid growth in delivering
the mission-critical e-business applications that our customers
demand.”
