Capgemini UK and its two 'halves'

This morning we reported on Capgemini’s financial results for Q1 12 (see Capgemini records UK recovery), which revealed UK & Ireland revenues growing at their fastest pace for the past four quarters. The 3.9% y-on-y like-for-like growth (to Eur510m) was a better result than the rest of Europe in aggregate. Top line revenue growth in the UK was 6.5%.

But the UK & Ireland business is a peculiar beast. One might be forgiven for thinking it were two different businesses: first there is Aspire (the part of the business that runs Capgemini’s long-term IT services strategic partnership with HMRC) and then there is ‘the rest’. In HotViewsExtra, Georgina O'Toole looks 'under the covers' at the performance of Capgemini's UK business. Eligible TechMarketView subscribers can access the 'Capgemini UK and its two halves' now; if you're not yet a subscriber please contact Deb Seth.
