Capgemini Named A Leading Oracle Implementation Provider By Independent Research Firm

Capgemini, one of the world’s foremost providers of consulting, technology and outsourcing services, today announced that it has been named a leader in an independent report about Oracle Implementation Providers by Forrester Research, Inc.

Capgemini was among the select companies that Forrester invited to participate in its March 10, 2008, Forrester Wave™ report, “Oracle Implementation Providers, Q1 2008”, which is Forrester’s first evaluation of Oracle implementation providers. The report assessed 13 providers across 107 criteria. In this evaluation, Capgemini was cited as a “leader” among global Oracle Implementation Providers.

The Forrester report states that Capgemini is an Oracle implementation leader “with strong end-to-end implementation skills,”1 and describes Capgemini in its vendor summary as follows:

“Capgemini rounds out the Leaders group with strong overall capabilities and EMEA presence. Capgemini is strong across most phases of implementation and across a breadth of verticals. It is also unique in being the only provider in the evaluation with a client base and resource mix more heavily skewed towards Europe.”1

“We’re honored to be named a leader in Forrester’s Oracle Implementation Wave,” said Connie Cservenyak, vice president and global Oracle alliance leader, Capgemini. “As an Oracle Certified Advantage partner, we’re able to use our extensive knowledge of Oracle’s suite of applications to jumpstart our client’s implementation process and to help them foster innovation and growth for their businesses.”
