Savangard

Savangard is a Polish IT services firm founded in 2002 with over 180 specialists. The company operates across 17 countries, primarily in Europe and the Middle East, and has delivered 901 projects over two decades. The team specializes in system integration, IT consulting, and outsourcing—particularly in finance, energy, telecom, utilities, and retail sectors. Clients include Vienna Life, Credit Agricole Bank Polska, Inter Cars, and inFakt, among others. Savangard's work ranges from modernizing legacy IT ecosystems to building new platforms for regulated industries.

Services and capabilities

Savangard organizes its offerings around three core areas. IT System Integration covers on-premise integration using webMethods, cloud-based integration on Microsoft Azure and Oktawave, and hybrid setups mixing on-premise and cloud systems. The company has deep experience with webMethods (noting itself as the largest Software AG partner in Central Europe with 10+ years of partnership) and also works with Mulesoft and Tibco. Integration work includes feasibility analysis, architecture design, deployment, and maintenance phases.

IT Consulting spans IT architecture planning, cybersecurity (network protocol analysis, device configuration, anti-malware setup), and business process optimization using BPM and BAM tools. The consulting team has run projects in ARIS and UiPath automation.

Outsourcing and Team Leasing provides individual specialist placement (body leasing), dedicated team leasing, "Try & Hire" arrangements, and managed services. Specialists work across Java, Python, PHP, JavaScript, C++, C#, React, and SQL.

Beyond services, Savangard builds two proprietary products: GreenAPI, a modular communication platform for Polish energy market entities to connect with OIRE (the Information Operator of Energy Market), and Savangard Open Banking, a platform for banks to implement Open Banking APIs, consent management, and third-party provider integrations.

Notable work

TAURON Product Service Platform enables energy purchases, exchange processes, orders from TGE, access management, and system integration for the energy sector. An SSO and IAM implementation for a retail client provided secure B2B access and partner onboarding for thousands of external users across channels.

Credit Agricole Bank Polska engaged Savangard on the electronic banking platform, involving needs analysis, software preparation, implementation, and technical support. Vienna Life reported that Savangard "reduced claim-handling costs and time" through the engagement and praised the team's collaboration and flexible approach. Inter Cars noted Savangard exceeded performance targets and met expectations, with strong technical expertise and professional project management. inFakt's CTO confirmed the solution works exceptionally well in production and that Savangard delivered each stage on time with clear communication. A financial services client implementing Open Banking described Savangard's product and team as addressing API exposure, consent management, and third-party provider challenges with legislation expertise. A banking integration partner noted Savangard has been instrumental since April 2022 in technical projects and webMethods-based integration services.

How they work

Savangard's system integration methodology moves through six stages: defining project requirements and choosing integration components; feasibility analysis and solution design; detailed planning and risk analysis; deployment and quality assessment; and ongoing maintenance with debugging and monitoring. The company operates with a CTO (Jerzy Niemojewski), a Chief Commercial Officer (Paweł Janczura), and heads of software development, architecture, IT operations, international sales, people, and administration. Client testimonials emphasize transparent communication, timely delivery, and responsiveness to discussion.
