Hitachi Consulting is Readers’ Choice Top 10 in Consumer Goods Technology Magazine

Hitachi Consulting, a leading provider of IT consulting and management consulting services and solutions, has been selected as one of the Top 10 consulting firms by Consumer Goods Technology (CGT) magazine for the fifth consecutive year. This year, Hitachi Consulting placed 6th in the 2011 annual listing. The ranking, part of Consumer Goods Technology’s 2011 Readers’ Choice Survey, was calculated from information provided by consumer company executives, whose responses also included customer experience rankings.

“The results of the survey indicate new trends and attitudes toward technology adoption as consumer products companies reevaluate what’s really important,” said Alliston Ackerman, editor, Consumer Goods Technology Magazine. “Specifically, we recognized that demand for consulting services is picking up as the economy gradually rebounds.”

Hitachi Consulting is helping companies improve their capabilities in Revenue Management, Integrated Business Planning, Responsive Supply Chain, and the associated applications and technologies needed to be more market responsive. “With the proliferation of online resources and social media driving real-time feedback, consumers are more sophisticated than ever before,” said David Wechsler, senior vice president, Consumer Products Practice at Hitachi Consulting. “As we move into 2011, Hitachi Consulting believes companies that are responsive to consumer expectations of real-time information and improved customer experiences, will position themselves as the leaders of tomorrow.”

Wechsler continued, “Hitachi Consulting is well positioned to help manufacturers embrace technologies that help listen to consumer feedback, respond quickly to demand signals, and provide products and services that address customers’ desires.”

The Consumer Products Practice includes the Food & Beverage segment and is the fourth-largest industry practice for the global company. Learn more about how leading consumer products companies are using Hitachi Consulting’s solutions to manage downstream data and stay competitive.
