IBSS (Integrated Business Software & Solutions) is rebranding and will now use its well known product name – Integra to refer to the company and the software.
Integra, one of the UK and Ireland’s most established public sector finance software platforms, today announces a major new chapter in its evolution, marked by a refreshed brand, a new website, and continued investment in its product and people.
Now part of the ADVT Group, Integra is benefiting from a focused strategy to invest in its modern, fully integrated finance system that serves approximately 150 organisations, with a strong emphasis on AI-driven capabilities, enhanced user experience, and deeper insights for organisations operating in complex environments.
This momentum is already being reflected in new customer wins across the public sector, with recent new customers including Independent Football Regulator, Northern Ireland Fire & Rescue Service, and Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
Integra remains firmly focused on the public sector, supporting around 140 organisations across healthcare, local government, emergency services, and wider public bodies. Many of these customers have trusted the platform for over 10 or even 20 years, reflecting its role in environments where accuracy, accountability, and reliability are critical. At the same time, the business continues to attract new organisations looking for a modern, AI-enabled approach to finance.
David Grigsby, Managing Director, said, "I joined the ADVT Group in 2025 as Managing Director of the Integra business and what was evident from day one was the talent of our team and the public sector knowledge and expertise throughout all departments. What also stood out was the relationships the team has with customers and the very active user group. The ADVT group saw this potential and has invested in people and refreshed the technology, as a result we are seeing new customers come on board and existing customers upgrade to the latest versions with AI at the core.”
Vin Murria, Executive Chair - ADVT Plc, said, "Integra has a strong heritage and a deeply loyal customer base in the public sector. Our focus is on building on those solid foundations - investing in AI-led innovation, enhancing the user experience, and ensuring the platform continues to deliver long-term value for organisations operating in complex, mission-critical public sector environments."
Integra's move into ADVT Group follows its acquisition by entrepreneur Vin Murria OBE, a highly respected figure in the UK technology sector. Known for successfully scaling and transforming software groups, Vin has built a reputation for recognising the long-term value in established platforms and investing to unlock their next phase of growth. Her approach focuses on strengthening product direction, modernising technology, and building on existing customer trust rather than replacing what already works.
As Integra enters its next phase, the focus is clear: to continue evolving a trusted platform that has supported public sector organisations for five decades, while embracing the newest and most exciting technologies available in the AI arena.
