Financial technology giant SS&C has made a £1.2 billion takeover proposal for robotics process automation firm Blue Prism, which is already the subject of a separate private equity takeover deal.
September that it had agreed a £1.1 billion takeover deal with private equity firm Vista Equity Partners, which plans to merge the company with data analytics firm TIBCO.
Alastair Bathgate has joined ScaleUp Group after he steps down as Blue Prism CEO on 30 April.
Bathgate founded and led Blue Prism from a two person startup in 2001 through to a successful 2016 IPO with a market cap that grew from £48 million to more than £1 Billion. Blue Prism created a brand new enterprise software product category that became known as Robotic Process Automation with a $multi-billion ecosystem of technical and distribution partnerships and a global reach across 130 countries and 70 industry sectors.
Robotic expert Blue Prism has announced a new collaboration with Red Hat, designed to create next-generation intelligent automation capabilities and services for the enterprise.
The initiative will see Red Hat’s Process Automation Manager platform integrated with Blue Prism’s connected-RPA suite to enable businesses to create a more comprehensive automation strategy that can increase process efficiencies and improve ROI.
Available now on Blue Prism’s Digital Exchange (DX) portal, the integration allows users to quickly build and deploy executable, automated processes to tackle tasks such as processing claims, filling orders reducing inventory and onboarding customers, it’s claimed.
Blue Prism announced the addition of GLYNT.AI, Kuzen and PMG to its Technology Alliance Program (TAP) as affiliate partners.
The big idea is to extend Blue Prism’s reach by making their software accessible to customers via Blue Prism’s Digital Exchange (DX), an intelligent automation “app store” and online community.
The latest capabilities on the DX include enabling chatbots, data extraction and analysis of documents and unstructured data. With just a few clicks, users can drag and drop these new capabilities into Blue Prism’s Digital Workforce—no coding required.
Blue Prism announced the availability of three new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions that, it claims, augment its Digital Workforce powered by the company’s connected-RPA Platform.
These SaaS solutions use IP acquired with Thoughtonomy – now branded Blue Prism Cloud – and, it’s claimed, allow enterprises to access the industry’s most advanced intelligent automation capabilities.
