Capgemini ranked #2 in the HFS top 10 RPA service providers 2018 report

Capgemini positioned as a global service provider focused on process optimization and RPA industrialization.

Robotic process automation (RPA) has emerged as a powerful change agent, with enterprises around the globe embracing it as a means to automate manual processes and create a bridge to a digital future. Despite signs of vibrant growth among most prominent RPA software firms, RPA is still a nascent market with enterprise strategies continuing to percolate and a notable dearth of experienced talent.

In a first of its kind report, the HFS RPA Services Top 10 report examines the role service providers are playing in the evolving RPA market. HFS assessed and rated the RPA services capabilities of 29 service providers across a defined series of innovation, execution, and voice of the customer criteria. The report also includes detailed profiles of each service provider, outlining their overall and sub-category rankings, provider facts, and detailed strength and weaknesses.
