“Starting 10 years ago with iPhone, and then with iPad, Apple has been transforming how work gets done, yet we believe that businesses have only just begun to scratch the surface of what they can do with our products,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “Both Apple and Accenture are leaders in building incredible user experiences and together we can continue to truly modernize how businesses work through amazing solutions that take advantage of the incredible capabilities of Apple’s technologies.”

Accenture will create a dedicated iOS practice within Accenture Digital Studios in select locations around the world. Experts from Apple including visual and experience designers, programmers, data architects and scientists, and hardware and software designers will be co-located with this team.

Pierre Nanterme, Accenture’s chairman and CEO, said, “Based on our experience in developing mobile apps, we believe that iOS is the superior mobile platform for businesses and are excited to be partnering with Apple. By combining Accenture’s vast digital capabilities and industry expertise with Apple’s market leadership in creating products that delight customers, we are in a perfect position to help our clients transform the way they work.”

Apple and Accenture will work together to create Internet-of-Things (IoT) services featuring new tools templates and predesigned code to help clients take greater advantage of the data from IoT platforms in their iOS apps, putting more power into the hands of workers.

Leveraging Accenture’s systems integration expertise and the iOS advantages built by Apple with key partners like SAP and Cisco, services will also be created to address the iOS integration requirements to connect to back-end systems and help clients to quickly and easily transfer their existing legacy applications and data to modern iOS apps.
