Outsourcing: The Innovator’s Secret
Why companies in pursuit of innovation and advantage outsource.
In our changing world IT departments are expected to deliver a simplified – from the business perspective – IT estate so that the next generation of business solutions can be created and adapted in a more agile fashion. In this new reality the successful CIO must demonstrate how IT can align costs and drive business value, to rationalize and standardize both the business and IT where required, to enable secure and efficient differentiation where needed, and ultimately to deliver an IT estate that adapts to business goals.
Our Approach
Capgemini’s expanded AO service offering combines traditional services such as application management, testing and modernization with new offerings such as ERP utility and Mashup applications development to support companies in applying emerging technologies to create opportunities for business growth, while continuing to manage IT costs.
Capgemini’s success is a result of working in close collaboration with our clients and understanding their business, and using these insights to construct the right roadmap for evolving their applications to deliver true business value. Capgemini’s Business Service Architecture methodology is instrumental in rapidly creating a clear picture of cost reduction opportunities and business value creation priorities. This methodology helps CIOs understand how to align IT more closely with the true needs of the business and, most importantly, extracting greater value from their IT investment.
