Accenture has signed a multi-year contract with the Netherlands-based logistics company CEVA, to provide finance and accounting (F&A) business process outsourcing (BPO), and management consulting services.

Under the agreement, Accenture will provide F&A BPO services including: accounts payable, accounts receivable, month end close, balance sheet reconciliations and reporting.

In addition, Accenture will provide F&A services to CEVA through its Global Delivery Network using delivery centres in India, Romania and Argentina.

Under the management consulting services, Accenture will provide focus on the harmonisation and redesign of a number of CEVA’s operational processes.

In addition, Accenture will bundle the management consulting services alongside F&A BPO to allow CEVA accelerate the transformation of its finance function across both the outsourced and retained organisation by focusing on the end-to-end business processes.

Accenture employee Jan-Coen Smit said the bundling of their different capabilities will enable them to deliver a cost-efficient, seamless and enhanced service and will allow the logistics company to keep their focus on delivering quality and innovation to their customers and achieving high performance.
