IBS and Coliance join forces on integration and financial crime prevention

We are pleased to announce a new partnership with Coliance, a UK-based IBM Gold Partner specialising in B2B integration and supply chain technology.

Coliance delivers Sterling-based programmes for organisations from SMB to global enterprise, covering B2B Integrator, Connect:Direct, Secure File Gateway and API-led integration. Alongside their services practice they build and maintain their own product suite — Avra, Kosmos, Atlas, Agora and Opsis — designed to reduce the cost and complexity of EDI, MFT and API environments. If an organisation runs Sterling infrastructure, Coliance knows it inside out.

The logic of the partnership is straightforward. Coliance moves data: the integration backbone, the file transfers, the partner onboarding. IBS protects financial transactions in real-time with IBM Safer Payments practice. We build the protection layer for national switches, high-volume payment ecosystems and banks. Integration and protection belong in the same architecture, not in separate projects years apart.

Our first joint focus is modernising customers' anti-fraud solutions — bringing real-time detection into environments already running billions of payment transaction, without disrupting the flows that business depends on.

The two organisations complement each other in reach as well as capability. Coliance works across the UK and European enterprise and supply chain market; IBS delivers mission-critical systems for banks, national payment infrastructures, government and telecom across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

IBS is listed in the Coliance partner ecosystem here. To discuss what the partnership can mean for your organisation, contact us.
