Genpact Acquiring Digital Consultancy Rightpoint (MESA)

Global professional services firm Genpact is acquiring Chicago-based digital company Rightpoint, giving Genpact a tech-focused consultancy that will help it offer end-to-end digital transformation services to clients, the company said.

Rightpoint’s co-founder Ross Freedman will continue as CEO of the business. The acquisition combines Genpact’s process, domain, and digital expertise with Rightpoint’s ability to create “impactful experiences” for customers, and with Genpact’s global reach and client base, Rightpoint will see continued expansion, according to a news release.

“To compete in a digital-first world, drive better outcomes, and unlock new business models, businesses must be able to drive transformation throughout an organization – from customer experience through to operational processes,” said Tiger Tyagarajan, president and CEO of Genpact. “In the next two years, the fusion of experience innovation and process innovation will become ‘table-stakes’ as organizations look to reposition themselves in the market. I am very excited to have Ross and the very talented Rightpoint team join Genpact as we together help transform our clients’ businesses in this experience economy.”

Rightpoint was founded in 2007 and was ranked the 28th fastest growing technology consultancy in America on the Inc. 5,000 and serves more than 250 Fortune 1,000 companies.

“We have always believed that every company is either a technology company today or will need to reinvent themselves to become one tomorrow. To thrive in the experience economy, organizations must successfully redesign and transform all aspects of their business – from the front office to the back office,” Freedman said. “Joining Genpact allows us to realize our vision of helping clients succeed at the speed of innovation.”

Terms of the transaction are not disclosed.
