Accenture Named as a Leading SAP Services Provider in Asia Pacific by Independent Research Firm

NEW YORK; Aug. 18, 2015 – Accenture (NYSE: ACN) was listed as a “Leader” in Forrester Research Inc.’s recently published “The Forrester Wave™: SAP Service Providers In Asia Pacific, Q2 2015” report.1 Accenture received the highest scores in vision (tied), co-innovation (tied), implementation services, global delivery (tied), and client base and engagements.

Forrester notes that, “The SAP services market is growing because more Asia Pacific organizations see service partners as a way to address application-related challenges. This growth is in large part due to the fact that application development and delivery (AD&D) professionals increasingly trust SAP service providers to act as strategic partners and advisors.”

“We are pleased to be listed as a leader in this report and see this as confirmation of our ability to help our Asia Pacific-based clients accelerate business results using SAP and stay competitive in an international market,” said Brett Hayes, managing director of SAP business for Accenture in Asia Pacific. “We offer three Innovation Centers for SAP solutions in the Asia Pacific region that complement our growing practice, and the Accenture SAP Business Solutions Group can help clients get the best value from their SAP software investment.”
