Consulting professionals are specialists in business functions, industries and systems integration and technology. They work closely with Accenture’s clients, technologists and services professionals to design, build and deliver innovative business and technology solutions that enable higher levels of performance.

As a member of the Consulting workforce you will be aligned to one of two workgroups: Management Consulting, and Systems Integration & Technology Consulting. Each of these groups enables us to
deliver the increasingly specialized skills that clients
demand while providing enhanced career
opportunities for our people.

Accenture is a global leader in delivering systems integration—in fact IDC, a leading analyst, has named us as the worldwide leader in systems integration for the second year running. Very few organizations are capable of delivering large-scale global systems integration programs but Accenture is, and that is why nearly 96 of the Fortune 100 chooses to work with us rather than our competitors time and again.

We also have more than 30 years of experience in the systems integration business and we have steadily expanded the scope of this work to cover both packaged and custom solutions for our global clients in every major industry.

Systems Integration Consulting involves working in teams with other knowledgeable and highly skilled individuals, which makes for an enjoyable and productive environment. You could work on complex projects for international companies. These companies will look to you for help in defining their needs and then designing and implementing adaptable yet predictable and easy-to-maintain solutions that support their strategic business imperatives.

There are many different roles in Systems Integration Consulting, and therefore significant opportunities for you to develop highly specialized skills that will further your career.

• Packaged and industrialized solutions (e.g. SAP, Oracle, Siebel, Retek)
• Custom solutions and development
• Solution integration
• Program management
