Capgemini launches collaborative effort to support Microsoft Dynamics AX 4.0 Rollout

Capgemini’s ERP Experience and PowerTrain Methodology Key to Global Effort.

New York --- The Capgemini Group, one of the world's foremost providers of Consulting, Technology and Outsourcing services announced that it intends, through its Consulting and System Integration and Local Professional Services (Sogeti) branches, to help bring the new Microsoft Dynamics™ AX 4.0 software to mid-size companies and large enterprises.

Microsoft Dynamics AX 4.0 is global, adaptable enterprise resource planning (ERP) software, designed for multinational corporations or companies working in several languages and different currencies. This system offers wide business-process coverage, combining enterprise resource management, customer relationship, and supply chain management. The integration framework can connect enterprise portals to project accounting or financial management to business analysis.

Through streamlining data, Microsoft Dynamics AX 4.0 empowers company leaders and a diverse employee base. Besides multi-language and multi-currency functionality, the software is designed to personalize their operations, making it user-friendly and adaptable with a wide-range of applications. Many companies already use Microsoft's core application, Office, enabling easy onsite training and preventing against business disruptions.

Capgemini Consulting and System Integration offers an innovative partner solution framework, PowerTrain, designed to tailor Microsoft Dynamics AX 4.0 to address the specific needs of customers. PowerTrain brings together the many years of ERP experience and delivery approach from Capgemini, the expanded Dynamics platform functionality from Independent Software Vendors and Microsoft’s enterprise-ready Dynamics solutions. The difference between PowerTrain and other frameworks is simple. PowerTrain is customized for specific industries and scales solutions to a global level.

Sogeti will provide local delivery for Dynamics AX and focus on local departments of large organizations and upper mid-market clients. “Sogeti increases the client value proposition for a Dynamics AX solution even further by combining its unparalleled Microsoft expertise, ERP experience and local delivery” said Sanjeev Agarwal, Vice President of Microsoft Services for Sogeti.
