NOMINATION HIGHLIGHTS

Sigma Software is a global engineering company building complex, security-critical digital systems. Today, the company brings together 2,000+ specialists across 20+ countries, working with clients from industries ranging from Aviation and Automotive to FinTech, AdTech, and logistics.

As AI reshapes business and talent expectations globally, our focus has been clear: help our experts to adapt confidently, and ethically, and unlock their full potential. A dedicated AI Center of Excellence established a shared framework for governance, ethical AI use, cybersecurity, and validation, ensuring every solution is secure, compliant, and transparent. Clear communication around how AI supports people’s work, rather than replaces it, has been essential for building psychological safety and long-term confidence.

As a technology company, we embed AI across the full software development lifecycle and all support functions. In engineering, this includes using third-party and proprietary tools such as Project Navigator, reducing project onboarding time by 70%; End-to-End Test Agent, which autonomously generates and validates testing scenarios at scale; AI-powered SDLC tools that reduce escaped defects by 25% and accelerate testing cycles by 20%, saving thousands of engineering hours every month.

Across internal functions, SIMA, our AI assistant, removes routine work and simplifies everyday processes for employees. It helps teams navigate internal procedures and resolve support requests without escalation. As a result, repetitive tickets were reduced by 85%, issue resolution accelerated by 90%, and the company achieved $500K in annual savings.

Beyond engineering, AI is embedded across the entire company ecosystem: from HR and talent acquisition to finance, operations, marketing, and internal support. We also integrated AI into the full talent lifecycle: hiring criteria, skill matrices, learning and development plans, and employee support, while ensuring 100% completion of mandatory AI literacy and responsible AI training.

Another critical pillar is internal communication. Weekly AI podcasts, leadership sessions, open Q&A formats, and weekly AI digests keep teams informed about progress, new tools, and success stories, with engagement consistently reaching 75–90%.

Our people are not passive users of AI, they are co-creators of the transformation. Through our network of 40+ AI Champions, every business unit identifies pain points and pilots solutions that improve both our operations and client delivery. Company ideathons generated 150+ ideas, many already evolving into pilots and internal products.

The results are reflected in both people and client outcomes: employee satisfaction has remained stable at 75%, while client satisfaction reached 99%.
