Capgemini has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Asia/Pacific SAP Implementation Services Vendor Assessment, 2020.

The company was recognised for its key strengths, including its ability to adopt a renewable enterprise approach to help clients achieve their business transformation ambition, leveraging a combination of technologies, platforms and industrialised agile methodologies, such as iCaptivate methodology and the digital delivery framework (DDF) throughout the SAP implementation life cycle.

Capgemini's co-innovation and co-development with SAP on industry and specific SAP solution areas was cited in the assessment.

The IDC MarketScape also notes that Capgemini's acquisitions focused on expanding experience services and vertical digital consulting capabilities have strengthened innovation-led transformation engagements in Asia/Pacific.

Strengths highlighted in the IDC MarketScape Assessment include:

  • Technical Resources – “Capgemini has a strong number of SAP certifications across solution areas in Asia-Pacific with a significant number of certified SAP S/4HANA practitioners, reaffirming Capgemini's commitment to growing S/4HANA adoption among enterprise customers. To support this ambition, Capgemini leverages its more than 20 delivery centres across all the major regions in Asia/Pacific, making it well-positioned to undertake large transformational projects for customers in Asia/Pacific.”
     
  • SAP Services: “Customers are highly satisfied with Capgemini's project management, the quality of resources in the SAP implementation team, its subject matter expertise and strong internal training initiatives. IDC also views Capgemini highly in terms of its growth strategy and overall customer satisfaction.”

“Our positioning as a Leader in this IDC MarketScape Assessment is a reflection of Capgemini's strong focus on our clients' industry and unique needs in the Asia/Pacific region. Capgemini is well-positioned to help our clients shape their innovation agenda and progress in their Intelligent Enterprise journey by leveraging our SAP S/4HANA services built on deep industry experience and real-world success. We work with our clients through their SAP journey and rapidly changing business needs to enable technology-led innovation from strategy to end-to-end transformation,” says Capgemini Asia-Pacific and Middle East executive chairman Luc-Francois Salvador

IDC senior market analyst Rijo George Thomas states, “Capgemini is a long-standing global SAP partner and has strong expertise in executing large SAP transformation projects in the Asia-Pacific region. With its massive SAP talent base and focus on driving innovation, Capgemini provides end-to-end SAP services that deliver value and match the digital transformation ambitions of clients in the Asia-Pacific region.

The report evaluated Capgemini and assessed 16 SAP implementation vendors in the Asia/Pacific region on both the strength of their current SAP implementation service capabilities and how well placed they are to grow the adoption of SAP solutions with their respective sound growth strategies.
