One of our web applications (a CMS in php) is outsourced. The developers claim that their application would support SAML.
You might want to look at Shibboleth, http://shibboleth.internet2.edu/, which is a very widely-used open-source SAML-based web signon package.
Another open-source SAML implementation is simpleSAMLphp, http://rnd.feide.no/simplesamlphp .
In definition, or theory, I read about SAML that it is enough for implementing SSO. Is it so in practice?
SAML is indeed a complete web signon protocol. The Shibboleth package includes a full-featured identity provider component. Shib is also often used to extend an existing web signon deployment such as CAS.
