Having previously selected Sapiens IDIT software suite as its new membership system, MPS has now selected Sapiens to provide professional services to lead the implementation effort. Sapiens was chosen by MPS to lead all implementation activities, including overall governance, business transformation services, testing services and data migration.

The scope includes Sapiens IDIT Policy and Billing, and can be expanded to include the Sapiens Portal and Sapiens INTELLIGENCE modules - key offerings from Sapiens' digital suite. Sapiens INTELLIGENCE is a modular business intelligence and advanced analytics solution and the modular Sapiens Portal transforms the member and agent experience.

"MPS chose Sapiens to take the leading role in our IT landscape refresh program, which is vital in establishing the strategic platform from which MPS will operate in the coming years. Sapiens has lived up to its delivery reputation and is a true partner that understands our shared values," said Dan Bown, MPS executive director of operations and chair of the Transformation Steering Committee. "And we expect Sapiens' digital suite offerings to empower our business users and agents, enabling them to act more rapidly and efficiently."  

"We pride ourselves on building long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with our clients," said Roni Al-Dor, president and CEO of Sapiens. "The expansion of this agreement demonstrates Sapiens ability to handle complex and business-critical projects. The end-to-end nature of Sapiens solution has proven to be a major differentiator that fuels our growth momentum."
