Graffica joins the Sopra Steria UK Family

Sopra Steria has acquired Graffica, a specialist provider of simulation products, software systems and consultancy services to the transport industry.

Graffica specialise in providing software that allows clients to research, prototype and validate concepts in a virtual environment.

Mark Oldfield, head of transport, central government at Sopra Steria, said: “This means clients can test changes and upgrades to their transportation networks, so they can be confident they have the right solution before implementation.  This acquisition supports our drive to continue to grow our business’s transport sector to £100m, having grown from scratch to a £30m business in just three years.”

“With Graffica, we can continue to develop innovative operational systems that enhance the safety and efficiency of the UK’s transport network and deliver services that make life better.”
