System Associates has become a new channel partner for Sitecore UK Ltd. The partnership will enable System Associates to provide a .NET content management solution as well as its in-house Java-based system, providing System Associates customers with a full content management offering, according to customer preference and in-house expertise.

System Associates provides a wide range of web services including content management, web design, digital asset management, web security, hosting, single sign-on and project management, primarily within the public sector. The partnership will enable Sitecore to have a greater reach within the public sector and will enable System Associates to provide an enhanced content management offering.

Claire Simpson, director for System Associates comments: "Sitecore UK has a strong reputation for its content management system and increasingly .NET solutions have been specified in tender documents. By becoming a channel partner, we can work closely with Sitecore to continue to provide a fully-outsourced Internet service where we can project manage and deliver a complete portfolio of web solutions."

System Associates offers outsourced services to a number of clients in the public sector including HM Treasury, the British Library, National College for School Leadership, the Coal Authority, London Connects, NICE and the Health Protection Agency.

Simon Bartolo, managing director of Sitecore UK comments: "We are very selective about our partners and were impressed with System Associates' pedigree within the public sector. We are both award-winning companies and we hope to be able to help grow each other's business further into the future."
