Capgemini Consulting is the strategy and transformation consulting brand of the Capgemini Group. We believe that the relevance of advice only comes into being if it is able to make the connection between the strategy of an organisation and the realisation of it. The value of this connection is becoming increasingly important now that the digital revolution demands another pace of response by organisations and the amount of opportunities and threats as well as their impacts have been exponentially increased. We see it as our role, our gift and our passion to realise this connection. We offer organisations answers and certainties in the rapidly changing global and digital world. We do this by connecting strategy and implementation with each other on the basis of a transformational approach that works. This approach is based on a proved methodology, elaborate experience in a large number of sectors and thorough expertise in relevant functional domains.
