“Capgemini’s strengths as a Leader in the ACES Automotive Engineering PEAK Matrix^® assessment lie in its portfolio of offerings, which comprehensively cover each of the four sub-segments, the key value chain functions, and the underlying domains. Its investments into labs and facilities in emerging technology areas, such as Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing, Engine Control Units (ECU) design and development, active and passive safety, electric drivetrains, and augmented reality, are well complemented by its ability to offer talent at scale from onshore and nearshore geographies. It also places significant focus on ecosystem orchestration which is visible through its partnerships with consortiums, Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), operating system (OS), and tool vendors. Its competence in electrical/electronic (E/E) architecture and embedded systems has helped it deliver value to customers, who in turn appreciate its consistency, quality, and reliability in ongoing engagements,” said Akshat Vaid, Vice President at Everest Group.
