Cordys Expands Into Australia; Appoints 20 Year Software Veteran to Drive Growth

Cordys, a leading business process management system (BPMS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) software provider that helps companies drive operational excellence, has expanded into Australia, opening an office in Melbourne. As part of the expansion, the company has appointed 20 year software veteran Steve Thomas as the Director of ANZ operations.

The Cordys solution encapsulates all the good elements of existing ERP “behind the scenes” with everything the Internet has to offer as the “front end”. Customers are able to orchestrate and automate all their business operations, whether they are manual or IT infrastructure centred, on premise or in the cloud, or any combination of the above. Reusing structured business logic together with the unstructured information, Cordys software establishes flexible business processes and operations that can be continuously optimised and improved, faster and quicker than ever.

Cordys CEO Art Landro highlights Cordys’ rapid growth throughout Asia Pacific as a main driver for the expansion. “Our BPMS and PaaS story and solutions are very enthusiastically received throughout Australia and the Asia Pacific region as we now serve well over 50 of the leading companies in the region. Over the past 12 months we have experienced significant growth in the number of companies that are implementing Cordys as well as expressions of interest in our solutions from this region. Australia is an important global economy, and we see a strong demand for innovative business process management software here.”

Mr Thomas brings a deep knowledge of the Australian and Asian markets, having run Australian and Asian regional sales, technical support and consulting operations for the likes of Documentum, EMC and Sherpa. “I have seen some impressive software over the 20+ years I’ve been in this industry, but I have not seen any platform that is as robust, flexible and powerful as Cordys. I was immediately drawn to the opportunity because of what Cordys software empowers customers to do for their business.”

Cordys is already used by many of the largest companies in the region, including Aegon Religare, China Unicom, China Mobile, CSC Australia, IFFCO Tokio and ING Vysya. Cordys is working locally with global partners CSC and Fujitsu who have built Australian implementation capability through their local implementations and participation in international projects.

In addition to its global partners, Cordys is building a local partner network, and is already working with Aptus International Services, a global cloud service and ICT provider based in Brisbane.
