interop.io Wins “Best Integration Platform for Interoperability” at the TradingTech Insights Awards Europe 2026
DXC Technology and interop.io Partner to Modernize Commodities Trading
Energy and commodities firms are under pressure to modernize — but system replacement is costly, slow, and disruptive. DXC Technology and interop.io have partnered to offer a better path: connecting the systems firms already have, improving how their teams work, and building a practical foundation for AI adoption.
The energy and commodities industry is at an inflection point. Modernization has moved from strategy to execution — but for many firms, the path forward is blocked by the same problem it has always been: legacy systems that don’t talk to each other, costly replacement programs that take too long to deliver value, and trading desks that are still copying and pasting between applications.
Today, DXC Technology and interop.io are announcing a partnership to offer a different path.
Connecting What You Already Have
Nearly two-thirds of energy and commodities firms report their systems still fail them — most often because legacy platforms cannot handle the speed, data complexity, and product diversity that today’s trading environments demand (source, Molecule) For many, the answer has been costly and disruptive system replacement. But wholesale transformation programs that take 18 to 24 months to deliver meaningful value are no longer the only option. DXC and interop.io offer a different path.
With interop.io, firms connect desktop, web, and legacy applications — including ETRM/CTRM systems, market data tools, risk platforms, and enterprise systems — into a coherent user experience, without replacing the underlying technology. Firms can introduce new capabilities incrementally, retiring legacy components only when it makes business sense.
DXC brings the implementation expertise to make that happen at scale. With a proven track record of integrating large, complex technology estates for global energy and commodities firms, DXC helps clients modernize without disrupting the business.
What This Looks Like in Practice
Together, DXC and interop.io help energy and commodities firms tackle the operational challenges that slow their teams down every day:
- Connecting trading, risk, operations, and logistics systems into coherent end-to-end processes
- Eliminating manual re-keying and copy/paste through shared context and synchronized applications
- Delivering tailored workspaces for different personas — from traders and analysts to risk, scheduling, and operations teams
- Enabling real-time alerts and action-oriented triggers across business events, thresholds, and disruptions
- Creating the foundation for new workflow capabilities, including automation and real-time triggers across the trading lifecycle
Building the Foundation for What’s Next
For energy and commodities firms, the challenge isn’t a lack of good systems — it’s that those systems don’t work together. Traders switch between screens, data gets re-keyed manually, and risk teams are working from information that’s already out of date. The result is slower decisions, missed opportunities, and operational risk that compounds across every desk, every day.
“Energy and commodities firms need more than isolated point solutions — they need a modern foundation that helps existing systems work as one. What began as a way to unify the capital markets desktop has grown into a powerful framework for managing microfrontends, streamlining workflows, and opening the door to new capabilities. By partnering with interop.io, we can help clients move faster with a solution that is flexible with their business.”

A Practical Path Forward
Many firms know they need to evolve their tools before they can take advantage of what’s next — but feel stuck between the urgency to modernize and the risk of another disruptive transformation program. This partnership offers a way to move. Connect the systems you already have. Improve how your people work. And build toward the capabilities that will define the next generation of energy and commodities trading operations.
