History
Since they first appeared, information systems have evolved considerably in public and private establishments. Given their increasing complexity, transferring them requires specific logistical and IT skills.
Based on that observation, we developed a business activity that complements traditional players: IT transfer.
Created as part of one of the first independent French groups, the Transfers Department became an separate entity in 1997, when Ingenova was founded.
Today, Ingenova has accumulated experience from over 500 transfers.
