Accenture expands Japanese capabilities with Acquisition of SOPIA

Accenture has completed its acquisition of SOPIA Corporation, a privately held, Tokyo-based consulting and Information Technology solutions company specializing in Oracle systems integration.

SOPIA will come under the umbrella of Accenture Japan expanding its Oracle capabilities and customer base in the country.  The move comes in response to a rise in demand for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) in Japan.

“The acquisition is complementary,” said Karl-Heinz Floether, group chief executive of Systems Integration, Technology & Delivery at Accenture. “Accenture benefits from SOPIA’s skills across the entire Oracle suite and supply-chain management software packages, while SOPIA gains access to Accenture’s industry expertise, broad skills in systems integration and its global reach.”
