In a statement Open GI said the development, which includes enhancements to Footman James’ existing Open GI core back-office platform and e-commerce offering, would increase the number of users on the Open GI system to 189.

“By partnering with Open GI we know we have a solutions provider we can trust and with the latest upgrades it will be easier to access and report on information from our core back-office solution. This development is crucial as we drive the business forward.”
Simon Hughes, Sales & Marketing Director at Open GI added: “It is encouraging to see that Open GI technology forms a significant part of Footman James’ future plans. Our enhanced product offering is continuing to generate a lot of interest from the market.
"As e-commerce and bespoke developments become increasingly popular and prevalent with brokers then so will our focus to deliver such products.”
