Capgemini named a Leader in two IDC MarketScape Assessments

The IDC MarketScape Commerce Platform report highlighted Capgemini’s key strengths, including a quick-start offering that integrates business consulting and technology delivery to rapidly implement retailers’ most recent operational priorities, as well as Capgemini’s proven experience with the retail and consumer goods verticals. For the IDC MarketScape Co-Innovation Services report, analysts noted that the acquisition of Altran offers to Capgemini’s consumer industry clients a considerable opportunity to co-innovate on the digital backbone for product life cycle, connected products, and asset management.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the change in retail, and organizations need to prioritize business agility to support the dynamic nature of the sector and the needs of the customer,” said Tim Bridges, Global Head of Consumer Goods and Retail at Capgemini. “Being positioned as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape is a recognition of Capgemini’s deep expertise in optimizing retail operations across the value chain. It also highlights our new insights capabilities and tailored solutions that enable the piloting, implementing, and scaling of innovation at speed, to empower retailers to accelerate their response to the current market environment and prepare for the future.”

Filippo Battaini, Head of IDC Retail Insights Europe, said, “Retail has been accelerating thanks to the next normal, with rapid changes in consumer behavior resulting in greater operational complexity. Capgemini has the proven global experience and strong market capabilities to support clients with the development and implementation of a data-centric digital retail commerce platform approach that matches the fast-evolving needs of the industry.”
