Accenture (NYSE:ACN) has again been named the Technology
Advisory House of the Year by Energy Risk magazine for excellence
across global commodity markets. The award was announced recently
at the Energy Risk annual awards in Houston.
As in previous years, Accenture’s breadth of strategy,
consulting, digital, technology and operations services to global
commodities trading companies contributed to the recognition. The
award also reflects Accenture’s track record of helping clients
deliver some of the most complex trading transformations in the
energy industry while leading the adoption of next-generation
digital technologies.
"Accenture is the key strategic partner in our global energy
trading and risk management implementation,” said Annmarie
Reynolds, Chief Commercial Officer, US, Eurasia & Utilities,
for The AES Corporation. “Their industry experience, product
knowledge and commitment to the project have been significant
drivers in AES’ ability to successfully rollout a new trading
solution that enabled us to transform and standardize our global
business operations across our international footprint.”
Baris Ertan, a managing director at Accenture who leads the
Trading and Commercial practice in the company’s Resources
operating group, said, “We continue to see growth globally for our
services, from strategy to operations, and now serve approximately
40 commodity trading clients – 16 of whom are new to our portfolio
– while expanding our delivery teams into Ireland, Switzerland,
Japan and Mexico. Our expansion into countries that are facing
deregulation and new market design is especially exciting as
clients need help solving competitive challenges at a time when new
commercial entities are forming and interest from foreign investors
is on the rise.”
In 2015, Accenture acquired Structure, adding approximately 200
professionals to its trading and risk delivery team and expanding
its ability to deliver large, complex energy trading and
risk-management projects to support its clients’ business
operations and technology.
Structure received the Technology Advisory House of the Year
award in 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, and Accenture received it
in 2016, 2017 and this year.
