For the third year in a row, Hitachi Consulting is ranked fifth in the annual listing of Top 10 consulting services providers by Consumer Goods Technology readers. Hitachi Consulting, the business and IT consulting company of Hitachi Ltd., has been ranked in the Top 10 four years in a row as a leader in the consumer goods industry segment.
The ranking, part of Consumer Goods Technology's 2009 Readers' Choice Survey, was calculated from information provided by consumer company executives, whose responses also included customer experience rankings.
"Hitachi Consulting is consistently receiving high marks from Consumer Goods Technology readers," says Alliston Ackerman, editor, Consumer Goods Technology. "Its position in this year's Top 10 list clearly demonstrates its ongoing commitment to an expanding depth of expertise in addressing the comprehensive needs of consumer goods companies."
Among those ranked ahead of Hitachi Consulting on this year's list are multi-billion dollar global consultancies IBM, Deloitte, Accenture, and one company wholly focused on the consumer products industry.
"Appearing in the Top 5 for the third time in three years, and in the Top 10 for the fourth year in a row, is validation that Hitachi Consulting is making a real impact on its clients' businesses. The placement also confirms the Hitachi Consulting strategy to provide the deep industry knowledge needed to deliver insight and capabilities usually only associated with dramatically larger or niche consultancies," said Stephen Brant, Hitachi Consulting Products group managing vice president.
"More than 200 of Hitachi Consulting's products industry consultants are helping companies compete in this hyper-competitive, short-shelf life consumer products market. They are improving their capabilities in Revenue Management, Advanced Business Planning, Responsive Asset Management, and the associated applications and technologies needed to be more market responsive. We are Building the Market Responsive CompanySM with strategy and technology," said Brant.
