Accenture plans to purchase vertical specialist IBB Consulting to help telecom carriers and media moguls adapt to next-generation digital and mobile technology.
The Dublin, Ireland-based company, No. 2 on the 2017 CRN Solution Provider 500, said Philadelphia-based IBB Consulting specializes in making carriers faster and more efficient while helping them pivot to software-defined networking and 5G mobile networks, according to Greg Douglass, senior managing director for Accenture Strategy, Communications, Media & Technology.
"We're really pleased with the acquisition," Douglass told CRN. "It's a very well-run business that has a stellar brand reputation in the marketplace. The combination will give us a broader set of capabilities to serve our client bases than we have today."
