London, 28 Feb 2008: Avient Solutions will now be known as IBS Software Services. IBS announced the inclusion of Avient Solutions, an IBS group subsidiary, to the parent company brand. It will continue to serve as the Global Centre of Excellence for the Airline and Airport Operations line of business as well as representing all of IBS’ interests in Europe.
