If I was IT manager, in order to pick which company would be the best for organization, I would have to do a lot of research to see what are the best available offers provided by all these four corporations.

Accenture ·         Application Services ·         Transform applications to outperform in a cloud-first, mobile-first world while modernizing legacy applications to accelerate pace of business. ·         Application Outsourcing ·         Testing ·         Partnerships with their clients to assess, strategize, and manage workday deployments. ·         Program, Project and Service Management. ·         Cloud computing- offers ability to source, scale and deliver computing capacity on demand. ·         AccentureLabs- their R&D will apply new technologies to help companies boost results today and future-proof given business. ·         Security- that can protect entire business entire value chain. ·         Capacity services

Pwc prevents, responds to and remediate organizations legal, regulatory and economic crime challenges. ·         Optimizing systems by achieving compliance, security and control. ·         Tax services and analytics ·         HR and retirement services ·         Accounting advisory

If I was IT manager, in order to pick which company would be the best for organization, I would have to do a lot of research to see what are the best available offers provided by all these four corporations. Honestly, without having all critical information necessary, it is very hard to say which company would provide the best service. In my opinion, if I have to pick company for cyber security assistance, I would choose KPMG. Interesting, because before checking all these companies, I did not know a lot about this company and what they do. However, if it comes to digital strategies, I really like pwc simply, because they talk a little more in depth about digital assistance. Unfortunately, this case also depends strictly on issues given company has and what types of solutions they expect. Later on, having necessary data it would be easier to pick the best outsourcing company.

Next, McKinsey looked like they are focused closely on business process improvements. From all these four companies McKinsey provided the most information in what ways they can help their clients and corporations. Their website was filled with links and available services. On top of that, they were able to give quick feedback of potential results and improvements that company can experience with McKinsey’s assistance.

Summing up, I was completely shocked and did not expect that I would pick those companies at all. I was familiar with Accenture and pwc, but only heard few times about McKinsey. KPMG was known only from television and all I knew was the company logo, but never knew what kind of service they are providing.

In addition, from simply theoretical perspective I have chosen those three companies, but it would be necessary to have more data and information to come up with most suitable and right decision.

Cyber security, digital strategy and business process issues:

Accenture provides the Cyber Defense at all the end-points whether it’s a traditional network, cloud, mobile, or Internet of Things. And with the help of digital power it has high ERP. Also, including blockchain is the key point for solving business process issues.

                                                                                                                                                    

As Mckinsey covers all the sectors such as electronic, Defense, Medical, Chemical, Metal & mining, Oil & gas, Forest and paper product, Retail, Public sector etc. it provides the security in terms of the integrated systems with remote access. With the help of electronic materials and power equipment it achieves the goal of digital power business issues.

KPMG helps to manage the private and corporate tax challenge but it does not use any security or the digital power to improve the business. It uses the Family Shift for the next generation participation and enhance the overall abilities and understanding of family business.

PricewaterhouseCoopers uses the cyber and information security for the security purpose. Digital marketing and e-commerce is the main digital strategy. Using prototyping and testing with the help of concepts visualization, experience design and journal mapping helps to overcome the business process issues. 

Deloitte provides cyber security risk and is known for digital creative consultancy. It uses a M&A solution life cycle to improve the work.

Accenture

According to me Accenture is the best consulting company as it is focused on the IT sector. Its main aim is to bring something new in the IT in order to stay in the market. It uses different approaches to achieve the Artificial Intelligence. Also, to avoid the business process issues it uses the blockchain concept by which the system can improve fast. It provides security at all end-point. With the help of cloud, it brings better business outcomes and business speed. So, due to speed, high connection and digital power it has very good ERP.
