Deloitte and Vlocity Bring Industry-Specific Cloud Apps to Canadian Clients

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 11, 2016) - Today, business advisory firm Deloitte and industry cloud apps company Vlocity announced a strategic alliance in the Canadian marketplace -- building on Deloitte's business and technology advisory practice and Vlocity's modern cloud and mobile software. The alliance allows Deloitte Digital in Canada to offer even more industry-relevant solutions around omni-channel customer engagement, and industry-specific sales and service enablement.

"Vlocity has created industry-specific cloud software that offers compelling value for our clients," said Kevin Armstrong, Deloitte Canada's Digital Customer practice leader. "This alliance allows our two firms to bring Vlocity apps built on the industry-leading Salesforce platform to Deloitte clients in a way that transforms customer engagement, sales and service. With Vlocity, we are able to focus more on client transformation, capturing strategic business value and accelerating innovation, and less on custom-coding cloud deployments."

Deloitte and Vlocity have teamed up on a number of Industry Cloud deployments in Canada, including the Region Municipality of York, Vancouver Fraser Port Authority and most recently, as part of the City of Toronto's Refugee Resettlement Program. Together, in just four weeks, they developed the Housing Opportunities and Marketplace Exchange portal for WoodGreen Community Services. The portal connects Syrian refugees with housing options and other community services.
