Ignite Digital Services, an operational consulting company serving the national security sector, recently elevated its certification standing with UiPath to become a UiPath Premier Partner. A leading enterprise automation company, UiPath helps fast-track portfolio innovation and enhance product capabilities for Ignite Digital Services clients looking to harness RPA and automation.
"Becoming a UiPath Premier Partner bolsters our framework for RPA innovation," shares Ignite Digital Services CEO Marc Murphy. "This partnership allows our clients access to UiPath's leading technology capabilities within the construct of our industry-driven consulting knowledge. Together, clients can expect end-to-end business solutions that unlock digital transformations."
The UiPath Business Automation Platform delivers fast, resilient, automation-fueled transformation within a single platform. The company is helping organizations around the world become faster and more agile in the face of increased demand and rapidly changing environments. It addresses significant time and value challenges with other technologies that propose customers must lift and shift their old systems to the new platform to receive any value. Instead, the UiPath Business Automation Platform provides the process automation efficiency and improved employee and customer experience with the existing technology that is in place – at a hugely different speed and cost proposition.
This enables more sophisticated automations with AI capabilities such as document understanding and provides sophisticated analytics to measure the business impact of automation. This pervasive 'automation first' approach is proven to be both substantial and transformative and is allowing everyone – from RPA Developers and Testers to Citizen Developers and Business End Users – to collaborate and put automation squarely at the core of everyday work.
"Automation is increasingly vital to customers across industries, and the national security sector is no exception," adds Todd Schroeder, VP, Public Sector at UiPath. "Arriving at the transformational process outcomes and improved experiences with the existing technology footprint has never been offered to Government previously and is a true modernization methodology gamechanger. Ignite Digital Services brings the capability and expertise to blend our innovative technology offerings with its insight to bring enhanced solutions to the marketplace."

JUICE, an award winning, full-service, integrated digital marketing agency focused on maximizing ROI for clients across customer acquisition, ecommerce, and lead generation campaigns, is pleased to name Ryan Jones the CEO of the company.
"As JUICE continues to work with brands that are dealing with complex challenges across digital advertising channels, it was important that we continue to bolster our executive talent," says co-founder Troy Osinoff.
In his more than 20-years of experience in the digital marketing arena, Ryan, a Clemson University graduate, has held senior-level positions with various digital marketing agencies, most recently serving as VP of Client Success at JUICE.
Ryan's steady leadership and results-driven vision for the company will guide JUICE through the next phase of its growth. Throughout his long and successful career, one thing has remained constant – the need to solve a business problem. Whether refining e-commerce strategy, focusing on SEO and SEM for lead generation, or leveraging the full range of marketing tools to generate a buzz, Ryan's approach to digital marketing is always customized and targeted to achieve the client's desired outcome.
"In the literal sense, juice is refreshing and energizing. I feel like that also represents the team at JUICE. While our focus as an agency is client growth, we are also a team laser-focused on client success and the overall experience we're providing to our clients. Having a clear understanding of the difference between satisfaction and success helps guide everything we do, with the latter always being the end goal. We need to make sure the JUICE is always worth the squeeze." he says.
