Global professional services company, GHD, is responding to the ‘fourth industrial revolution’ and client demand by rapidly ramping-up its newly launched service offering GHD Digital.
Launched in February this year and lead by digital consulting guru, Kumar Parakala, GHD Digital has announced the appointment of six senior executives in Australia and Asia-Pacific.
GHD Chief Executive Officer, Ashley Wright, commented, “We operate in an environment where the power of technology is advancing at an astonishing rate. Regardless of business size or industry, digital transformation is vital.”
“Our vision is to be the leader in both delivering digital services to clients and using digital technologies to improve our own operations.”
Global Digital Leader, Kumar Parakala, said, “GHD is backing its clients and demonstrating our serious intent to be number one in helping our clients with their digital business transformation priorities . Everywhere, people’s lives are changed by digital technologies combined with new business models, zero cost of computing and internet; and everyday there are exciting new opportunities for organisations to redefine their survival and growth strategies with new developments in water, energy and resources, property and buildings and many services industries
GHD Digital is progressively launching in key geographies across the globe and establishing key partnerships to provide holistic digital transformation solutions to clients. With the launch of Australia and APAC, the Digital team has expanded to more than 100 people locally in 12 months, with more growth to come.
