Our Managed Testing Services (MTS) is Sogeti’s approach to sourcing testing and QA services, providing the test organisation, processes and environment that will achieve optimum results and dependable state-of-the-art software that performs time after time.

MTS is an end-to-end fully customised service, in which Sogeti takes responsibility for test activities at either enterprise or programme level. Our flexible teams of testing professionals, organised in dedicated client test lines at our Test Centres of Excellence around the world, are cross-trained in multiple technologies, and can be scaled up or down on-demand, meeting the perennial issues of resource peaks and troughs experienced by all IT departments.

A collaborative approach to sourcing testing and QA services, MTS is the solution for clients who want to transform their testing function and achieve high quality services cost-effectively, without the expense of large overheads and day-to-day responsibilities, but without losing overall control.

Sogeti Roadmap to Managed Testing Services (MTS)

Our low-risk, proven and incremental roadmap to test sourcing allows you to choose how much test management control you keep or delegate to a trusted and experienced provider.

Benefits of Managed Testing Services

Managed Testing Services deliver cost optimisation as well as demonstrable improvement in the quality of testing, processes, deliverables, results and flexibility of test operations.

Typical benefits from an MTS contract include:

• Significantly reduced total cost of testing — an optimal balance between local and offshore execution can result in cost savings at least 25% in year one
• Standardisation of reliable best-practice test processes — the right conditions can produce up to 30% reduction in the overall test effort
• Measurable improvement in quality and greater precision — proven detection rates of 97% and higher for high-severity defects can be achieved
• Improved time-to-market of 15% or more and greater transparency of your testing processes and procedures
• Scalable resource and delivery flexibility — highly-skilled capacity to accommodate increased demand from your business
• Skills transfer — capabilities and a quality focus are embedded into your organisation and consistent quality assurance is delivered across multiple supplier environments
• Continuous optimisation and access to innovation techniques, such as Cloud Testing and Virtualisation, to establish and maintain a competitive edge. 

For those customers who prefer not to incur CAPEX software testing tool costs, Sogeti also offers Software Testing as a Service (STaaS).
