Company

Company overview

Businesses and government agencies pay CGI Inc. to update older technology, connect systems and keep applications and IT operations running. Managed IT and business process services account for most of its revenue: CGI takes responsibility for all or part of a client’s IT functions under long-term contracts. Consulting and systems integration provide the other major revenue stream, helping clients plan technology changes and implement them through shorter projects.

CGI also supplies configurable business software, including Momentum and CGI Advantage, within its services. Software arrangements commonly include implementation, customization and maintenance, linking its own platforms to the work it performs for clients.

The U.S. federal government and its agencies supply a significant share of revenue, spread across many departments and agencies. This makes federal spending and procurement decisions important to CGI’s business. Government contracts carry extensive legal and regulatory requirements, and agencies can change project scope or terminate work for convenience rather than because CGI failed to perform.

  • Accenture competes with CGI worldwide for companies’ spending on technology advice, system transformation and running IT operations. Its Consulting and Managed Services results are worth watching for demand in the work both sell.

  • Cognizant competes with CGI for companies’ contracts to advise on technology, build and connect applications, and take over IT and business processes. Its Financial Services and Health Sciences results offer a view of customer groups that CGI also serves.

  • Infosys competes with CGI for global enterprises’ spending on updating applications, connecting systems, managing cloud technology and running business processes. Watch its application modernization and cloud management work for demand in services that overlap with CGI’s.

  • DXC Technology competes with CGI for global companies’ contracts to modernize applications, provide IT infrastructure services and build industry-specific technology. Its Global Infrastructure Services and Insurance Software & Services results are useful comparisons for CGI’s IT operations work and insurance clients.

  • EPAM Systems competes with CGI for enterprise projects to build software, modernize cloud technology and change how businesses use digital systems. Its work for financial services, retail and healthcare clients is the overlap to watch, rather than treating all of EPAM’s business as a guide to CGI.

  • Genpact competes with CGI for fees from running and improving companies’ business processes, including those of banks and insurers. Its Financial Services revenue is the clearest line to watch for this overlap.

  • ExlService Holdings, Inc. competes with CGI to run and automate business processes for financial services customers, including insurers. Watch its Insurance segment’s work administering life and annuity policies for a concrete view of the operations insurers pay outside providers to handle.

  • Amdocs Limited competes with CGI for communications providers’ spending on connecting systems, managing applications and transforming technology. Its work moving customer workloads to the cloud and operating applications is the part to watch for CGI’s communications business.

  • ICF International, Inc. competes with CGI for government contracts to advise on technology and put digital systems into use, but focuses more on policy and program delivery.
