The Cabinet Office has sold its 25% stake in Shared Services Connected (SSCL), which provides digital services to public sector organisations, for £82.3m. French IT consultancy Sopra Steria will take full control of the organisation, which it founded in partnership with the UK government a decade ago.
Sopra Steria said the purchase is in line with the original contract laid out when SSCL was launched as a joint venture in 2013.
