Aerospace: a sector with considerable challenges

The Aerospace industry must accelerate the transformation of its model under the combined effect of the impacts of the COVID crisis, new customer expectations and the application of new technologies. The imperatives of decarbonisation, flexibility and performance of the industrial system as well as the need for excellence in the customer/traveller experience generate a complex equation to solve. Aeronautical players have to offer more services, more comfort, more safety, more fluidity, while being more efficient.

Companies in the sector therefore face three strategic imperatives:

• Invent the aircraft (or space) of tomorrow,
• Drastically reduce the time-to-market,
• Ensure maximum flexibility of their industrial tool and their supply chain.

To achieve these objectives, they can activate the following five levers:

• Design new systems in a global way, taking into account their life cycle,
• Ensure a true digital continuity between design, operations and services,
• Substantially renovate their legacy information systems and prepare them for further digitalisation,
• Increase collaboration in the ecosystem,
• Ensure the continuous acquisition and training of talent.

Aeroline, the essential partner

At Sopra Steria, our teams combine in-depth expertise in the aerospace business with a high level of knowledge of information systems and digitalisation. They are brought together in a dedicated organisation, Aeroline.

Inventing energy of the future, today

The energy sector is facing a major transformation: European decarbonisation directives are accompanied by implementation policies specific to each country. As a result, the energy mix is evolving to adapt the use of nuclear power and accelerate the use of renewable and eco-responsible energies. Hydropower, wind power, photovoltaic, biomethane and hydrogen are essential solutions in this development.

Also, consumers are more and more concerned about benefiting from energy of controlled origin at the best cost and are becoming producers. In this context, energy production is becoming decentralized and the sector's players must rethink their operating methods while facing the opening of their markets to competition.

Players in the energy sector need to overhaul their business model completely, moving from a management logic to one that builds loyalty and wins new customers. In this context, and given the digital transformation of the value chain, we must reinvent new models: Sopra Steria is committed to working with you to create the energy of the future together.

Technological innovation supporting energy of the future

At Sopra Steria, we believe that the future of energy involves digitalisation and engineering to enhance industrial performance. Industry players must adopt a service- and customer experience-oriented approach to improve performance and build strong customer relationships. We support you over the long term with your transformation to take advantage of the best of innovation, such as Artificial Intelligence or the IoT, and thus become your "deep digital transformation partner".

Building a more innovative energy sector together

Sopra Steria’s know-how in the energy sector is reflected in virtuous partnerships with key players such as EDF, Veolia, ENGIE, Aker BP, EnBW and Enel. Through our combined offers (consulting, integration, infrastructure management, software), we offer you comprehensive support in all aspects of your ecosystem (production, transport, distribution and marketing). In particular, we develop an approach linked to the problems you encounter for each of the assets in the value chain: customer acquisition and experience, optimising industrial processes, transforming engineering, modernising distribution networks, internal change management (HR), and leveraging data.

Our local teams are committed and attentive to your needs and offer you agile, relevant and effective solutions. We draw on our multi-sector experience to support you creatively. At energy sector scale, this knowledge sharing is implemented in areas such as Cybersecurity, human-machine relations (Blockchain, new interfaces), maintenance (particularly through the PLM offer of our CIMPA subsidiary) and HR and real estate solutions.

Technological innovation and know-how for new energy

Sopra Steria guides you through your digital transformation by combining relevant technological innovation with proven know-how. Taking into account all aspects of change in the energy sector and their technological, economic and human impact, we provide you with effective solutions that meet your objectives over time.

Protecting, innovating and guiding you through your transformation

Organisations – Governments, Ministries and Private Entities – now face multiple Defence and Security challenges. Better control of data and information is essential to minimise risk and ensure strategic, powerful digital autonomy.

At Sopra Steria, we are convinced that pooling expertise and information makes it possible to be more efficient and to guarantee the safety of individuals and data security.

This complex environment requires vision and powerful civilian and technological innovation initiatives to adapt services to the evolving Defence and Security constraints in real time.

A Defence and Security vision dedicated to efficiency

We capitalise on our experience in different business sectors, combining our innovation abilities to offer creative and inspiring tailor-made solutions. Using a cross-fertilisation approach, we provide strong responses to Defence and Security requirements.

Building the right Defence and Security strategy together

As a global player in digital transformation and a Defence Technological and Industrial Base (DTIB) player with more than 40 years' experience, we have in-depth knowledge of your markets and understand your issues, regardless of your organisation: from Ministries to international organisations such as NATO and the EU.

Our local teams, backed by Sopra Steria partners - start-ups, universities, competitiveness clusters and investment funds - support you on the ground to offer you comprehensive solutions and an optimal service. We bring you technological innovations through events, specific think tanks and thought leadership. Our strong presence in other sectors gives us an original, experience-based understanding of your issues.

A results-oriented value proposition for the Defence and Security sector

As a choice partner for digital sovereignty, we develop expertise focussed on your main activities: command and control, intelligence, logistics, maintenance, justice, cyber defence, etc. We are also among the first to have received Security Incident Detection Provider Certification (PDIS).

Let's reinvent banking together; injecting more agility and innovation

Banks and financial institutions now face a genuine revolution that forces the sector to address three major challenges.

Disintermediation: a proven risk

To meet customer expectations that require greater transparency, customisation, innovation and more cost-effective offers, newcomers are revolutionising traditional business models by offering disruptive services: mobile banking, biometric payment, etc. To avoid the risk of disintermediation and to address this new way of consuming banking services, we are convinced that consultancy and the role of trusted third parties are becoming essential for traditional players.

Regulatory compliance, a business issue

Regulatory changes are also disrupting the market and forcing banks to exercise greater transparency in liquidity and risk management (Basel II, Basel III, IFRS 9) while respecting data confidentiality.

Banking players must therefore adapt their information systems ever more quickly to remain compliant and comply with security rules while remaining competitive.

Identify new sources of income to remain indispensable

Activities that usually generate margin are being squeezed and new technologies are shaking up the industry. Professionals must therefore transform themselves by being more open and by prioritising services over products. Open Banking is one example. As such, it is essential to ensure customer data is interoperable and used efficiently to develop the business and improve customer satisfaction across all channels (banking branch, mobile, Internet).

A bold vision of the future of banking

To safeguard your position as a go-to player in your market both now and the in the future, our teams help you to get the most out of data and to develop new partnerships to unlock the benefits of the best technological breakthroughs whilst sharing and controlling your costs. Our goal is to help you develop a more consumer-centric approach to offer ever more personalised services while preserving margins.

Building a new banking model together

Through our subsidiary Sopra Banking Software, we offer and implement powerful and agile software solutions. Our biggest customers include Société Générale, BNP Paribas, La Banque Postale, HSBC, Crédit Agricole, RBS, Hyundai Capital, Bank of China, etc.

We use our sector know-how spanning over 40 years and our end-to-end offer to work on your projects to create value through innovation, digitalisation, security, compliance and managed services.

A results-driven value proposition for the banking sector

Our teams combine proven software packages with a hard-hitting offer combining strategic advice, systems integration, software publishing and infrastructure management, to help you successfully complete your transformation. By designing and industrialising tailored solutions for each banking ecosystem, we act as a "transformation booster". We facilitate and accelerate transformation to optimise your existing model.

Reinventing the value proposition and the promise of insurance

Traditional players in insurance and social protection face five major challenges:

Tax and regulatory constraints that curb innovation such as the Hamon, Sapin and Eckert laws, widespread implementation of the third-party payment system, the IDD and ANI (insurance market reforms), etc., resulting in onerous investments to remain compliant.

A rapidly changing market: new entrants such as bank-insurers, digital players and the development of comparison sites are disrupting conventions.

Operating costs under pressure: with increased competition and a sluggish economic environment, margins are increasingly low on traditional products.

A new type of risk: consumption patterns are changing. Rental rather than buying, and sharing and lending between private individuals have become a common practice. So-called "traditional" risks are shrinking, and other risks inherent to cybersecurity are emerging.

Capitalising on the future: today’s consumer aspires to greater transparency, customisation, responsiveness, etc. By striking the right balance between technological innovation and human values, the world of insurance can now respond to new expectations for the future.

A vision that combines customer needs with new technologies

At Sopra Steria, we are convinced that in order to preserve their profitability, conventional players must develop new offers that capitalise on advisory features that go beyond traditional products and services. Accordingly, it is becoming vital to rethink their business models based on the customer life cycle whilst exploring new strategic partnerships (Assurtechs, NATU, etc.).

Sopra Steria, your digital transformation partner

To avoid the disappearance of insurance from services built around new uses (new mobility, smart vehicles, healthcare provision, etc.), traditional players must engage in far-reaching digitalisation.

This entails marketing their offers in a way that is allied as closely as possible with protected goods and services, by simplifying processes (execution of certain steps online where they have no added value and are costly for the insurer) or by automating bundle creation (pricing, underwriting, payment of claims, adaptation to markets, etc.) for greater responsiveness.

Additionally, data enables insurers to truly establish themselves as "preventive players" through an in-depth knowledge of their customers that means they can anticipate risks and provide relevant, rapid and agile responses.

Building insurance and social protection of the future, together

Our team of insurance experts guides you through a Test & Learn approach to set out a strategy, validate key trends and anticipate market developments.

We use a cross-cultivation approach to create virtuous customer experiences and take advantage of the best multi-sector technologies and processes. The combination of our offers, in strategic consulting, systems integration, solution development and infrastructure management, are core components of your transformation.

We combine our expertise with that of business and technological partners in order to offer you the best solutions.

A results-driven value proposition for insurance and social protection

By establishing a direct connection with consumers, their expectations and new uses, Sopra Steria experts help you to reinvent the value proposition and the promise of insurance and social protection.

Ministries at the centre of State development

Citizens and businesses lead and pace governments and ministries. Playing a key role, they both originate numerous reforms and are responsible for their implementation. Their actions must therefore be tangible, rapid, effective and generate results in record time.

These complex challenges mean that Ministries undergo in-depth transformation while meeting their budgetary constraints. To be successful, this type of transformation must be based on three factors:

Innovation and new technologies must contribute to digitalising administrations, giving them greater agility and operational efficiency.

Change must be explained, helped and guided through all operational and decision-making levels to make sure it is accepted and adopted by both users and civil servants.

Discussion and cross-fertilization between administrations and compliance with information system constraints, etc. ensure that any transformation generates value.

A State vision focussed on efficiency

Sopra Steria helps the State achieve greater agility and efficiency. Our experts build creative and disruptive solutions based on citizens’ issues and viewpoints. This vision makes it possible to identify areas for improvement and to bring citizens and public services closer together. Using an approach that transforms people and technology, the State is fully rooted in the reality of citizens and private-sector players.

Building the State of the future together

At Sopra Steria, we have recognised experience in supporting Ministries, Public Agencies, Pensions and Social Security Departments such as the French Ministry of Finance (Customs, IS Directorate, Treasury, etc.), French Ministry of Education, French Ministry of the Environment, inter-ministerial organizations, urban centres (in particular the Paris City Hall) and German federal administrations.

This experience enables us to streamline best practices and solutions in infrastructure management, cybersecurity, Cloud, AI, Blockchain, enterprise automation, drones, IoT and many other technologies.

As a trusted partner, we provide you with a comprehensive approach and service: including strategic advice, systems integration implementation and transformation design.

Our Sopra Steria experts work closely with your teams on a geographical, cultural and linguistic level. Whatever your territorial reach, they apply the appropriate technology and create tailored value-added solutions to your current and future challenges.

A results-oriented value proposition for the State

Sopra Steria helps public institutions evolve towards a new generation of administration, making each transformation an opportunity for progress. By genuinely focusing on the needs of citizens and businesses, we combine the most relevant advisory services and technologies to modernise the State while respecting its constraints and budget.

Reinvent models to address new consumption challenges

Telecommunications companies face a major challenge: they must make significant technological investments while applying aggressive pricing policies to remain competitive. This business model requires careful management throughout the value chain.

In the media and entertainment sector, players are challenged by competition that is shaking up consumer patterns, particularly with the emergence of major players such as GAFAM and OTT, forcing them to rethink traditional models and constantly innovate.

At Sopra Steria, we support you in tackling three major challenges:

Operators must increase traffic capacity while keeping operating costs under control, and must be reliable while developing multi-modal solutions. At the same time, users want an optimised, more agile and service-oriented customer experience at an increasingly attractive price.

Sopra Steria Next, inspired by action.

Changes in digital technologies associated with increasingly demanding customer expectations mean that companies have to transform themselves. It’s essential for them to place the customer at the heart of their strategy. Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), Virtual and Mixed Realities offer new opportunities to existing companies to enhance their performance. Global spending on information and communication technologies (ICT), including new technologies, is expected to exceed $5,600 billion in 2021, according to the IDC.

These new technologies need to be mastered for optimal implementation within your organisation. Our teams use their expertise to enhance your company’s performance. We help you to improve your customer experience, develop your operational excellence and optimise your processes. Let’s design new uses together, taking advantage of the best of these innovations.

Combining new technologies to support your business

At Sopra Steria, we are convinced that the adoption of new technologies will only be relevant if it responds to a clearly identified challenge. It is becoming essential to place customer needs at the heart of your thinking and refocus on this ecosystem. To effectively address this challenge, implementing of a set of technologies is the key to success. By mastering these technologies, it is even possible to imagine new uses to further increase customer satisfaction.

Make organisation agile with Sopra Steria

We help you identify your business or customer needs as well as your areas for improvement. We than draw upon our expertise to identify or create new uses and leverage new technologies to guide you through your challenges.

Systems integration and application management for company transformation accelerators

Transforming companies and economic models means fully overhauling Information Systems (IS). Companies expect more from there IT and IT departments regardless of the sector of activity. All organisations now want to benefit from an agile IT, which accelerates business transformation while optimising operational costs.

To do this, traditional development and systems integrations businesses (integration of ERP, SaaS solutions, development, modernisation, use of API and Cloud, and maintenance of specific applications) must become smarter and reinvent themselves to better fit with business needs and improve IT performance.

Technologies can play a key role in supporting this change: Cloud, API, Data, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, IoT, mobility, virtual reality, CyberSecurity, platforms, etc.

Agility and performance at the heart of the IT

Application services are one of many major challenges for companies. In a context where constant change has become the norm, these components must be integrated into their strategy and operations.

At Sopra Steria, we are convinced that collective intelligence and agility at scale are essential for designing and deploying new IT delivery services by transforming the IT department’s working environment, practices, organisation, culture and relationship with the company’s other divisions and IT suppliers.

New technologies are also a major lever for transformation. For example, migration to the Cloud via a hybrid approach (private Cloud and Public Cloud) makes it possible to accelerate time to market. Analysis IT data also means IT departments can improve efficiency and become an innovation partner for the company’s business lines.

Let’s prepare your IT together to tackly the challenges of tomorrow

To offer the best services at the best cost, we leverage our business knowledge, capacity for industrialisation, and innovation to help you transform your IT. We have established strategic partnerships with solution providers:[JC2] SAP, IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, HP, AWS, Google, Salesforce, RedHat.

SAM also integrates new practices from our ecosystems, customers and partners.

With this modern vision of changes in application management, and a pragmatic strategy for implementing innovative and transformative end-to-end services, we are working with you to develop an information system that is fully aligned with your company’s needs.

In an extremely volatile environment, the pressure to increase efficiency and profitability is greater than ever.

Cybersecurity: the foundation of trust required for your digital transformation

Cybercrime is one of the biggest challenges companies face today. Cyber-attacks are gaining ground and becoming the world's fastest-growing criminal activity. Key trends such as mobility, cloud, big data, IoT, AI or machine learning increase the risk of cyber-attacks. Reputational damage, fraud, data theft, and downtime: we must limit and manage these risks.

Companies must embrace a true digital culture of resilience and trust. Therefore, cybersecurity has become a key catalyst for your digital transformation. Accordingly, there is a need to prevent risks, protect sensitive information, detect and respond to attacks to ensure business continuity.

A security-focused approach

At Sopra Steria, we are convinced that trust in your digital assets and sensitive infrastructures has become key to developing your organisation. Our “Security by Design” approach, focused on business risks and cross-cutting your organisation, is becoming essential to disseminate a safety culture in your teams and ensure the digital security of your systems.
