Cognizant, Kony join hands to develop enterprise applications

Cloud-based enterprise mobility solutions company Kony has joined forces with Cognizant, which provides IT, consulting, and business process services, to jointly develop and deliver solutions spanning enterprise mobile applications, mobile app design, and mobile back-end services. The duo plan to collectively develop and deliver a suite of new cross-platform mobile applications for industries such as banking, healthcare, manufacturing, retail and government, as well as horizontal mobile apps that can be used by sales and field services, workflow, and human resources organisations.

“The world is mobile. Serving today’s customers means connecting with them anytime they want and anywhere they are. As a result, we’ve seen an explosion of emerging end points and apps to engage, capture information, and support decision-making. This trend lies at the heart of digital transformation,” said Sean Middleton, chief operating officer, emerging business accelerator, Cognizant.

With this move, existing clients will have an extended access to Cognizant’s Digital Fabric mobile middleware back-end service, which is based on Kony’sMobileFabric, for enterprise-grade mobile services. May be this would make room for more clients. In addition, Kony’s advanced mobile app design capabilities will be integrated into the offerings of the Cognizant Digital Collaboratory in New York City. Greater access, deeper trust!

“Successfully harnessing these forces to capture value, though, requires a thoughtful approach supported by an efficient, secure and agile platform. We’re pleased to partner with Kony and to harness their world-class expertise and platform. Together with Cognizant’s Digital Works methodology, this alliance will help our clients across industries,” Sean added.
