Engagement History & Cordiant Execution

In 2006, with its experience in providing comprehensive range of banking solutions in Europe and Africa, Neptune decided to embark on an ambitious project  to build and take to market a flexible and scalable universal banking solution.

Cordiant’s prior experience in building extended development centers for Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) proved decisive for its selection as the offshore partner. In line with Neptune’s vision, Cordiant customized an Offshore Solution for them at its Resource Lab for ISVs in International Tech Park, Chennai.
