CGI (NYSE: GIB) and Kesko, a leading retail services company, have entered into a strategic partnership to accelerate digital transformation. The comprehensive agreement encompasses a wide range of IT services, including end-user services, capacity and cloud services, and integrations. CGI will also support Kesko's K Group retail network in digital development initiatives [1].

Kesko selected CGI through a competitive bidding process, citing the company's international expertise and local presence as key factors. The collaboration model includes shared goals, risks, and joint metrics for achieving strategic objectives [2].

CGI's involvement in the partnership extends beyond traditional vendor relationships, with the company participating directly in Kesko's business development. The agreement aligns with CGI's broader strategy of helping retail organizations implement AI and data-driven approaches to enhance profitability through improved customer experiences, supply chain optimization, and streamlined operations.
