Sentenial CEO Sean Fitzgerald comments, “The Sentenial PwC partner agreement will greatly extend Sentenial’s corporate reach. First-hand experience has shown us that Europe’s corporate originators are not prepared for the challenge ahead and more worrying do not fully understand the implications this will have on their business. PwC’s extensive footprint, SEPA experience and solutions will ensure that information, assistance and most importantly a SEPA Rescue service will reach the wider community. Knowledge partnerships like this one are pivotal. ”

As the SEPA deadline draws near, many of Europe’s corporate originators are yet to fully understand the impact SEPA will have on their business and have not put in place the necessary business processes and IT service solution to ensure full compliance by February 2013.

PwC Senior Partner Damien McMahon adds, “Our business expertise and local relationships coupled with Sentenial’s hands-on experience SEPA solution deployments, positions this partnership as a win-win for all. SEPA readiness is key.

PwC will offer clients:
- SEPA readiness assessment
- Impact study
- Requirement definition and RFI & RFP management
- Project Management
- QA assessment/milestone validation
- Rescue service (for SEPA projects already underway but going off the rails!)

These services will be available in France, Germany, UK, Belgium, Netherlands, Spain and Italy
