A leading global tech services provider set out to fundamentally shift how it was perceived in the market, from a staff augmentation-led services firm to a credible Digital Consulting Services partner. This transformation required more than messaging; it demanded sustained change across customer experience, capabilities, processes, and account strategy.
Over four years, the organisation used customer-led insights to guide incremental but consistent action, reshaping perceptions, strengthening delivery, and realigning growth priorities toward higher-value engagements.
