Accenture has acquired Australian-based supply chain and logistics consulting firm, GRA.
Founded in 1997, GRA has offices in Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane with a team of 50. The firm specialises in end-to-end supply chain and logistics strategies and operations, working with some of Australia’s leading organisations in areas such as government, aerospace and defence and consumer goods.
“The pandemic has accelerated the need for businesses to transform their supply chains to become more customer focused, agile, and socially responsible with the flexibility to withstand future disruptions," Tara Brady, country managing director for Accenture in Australia & NZ, said. "The addition of GRA will expand our supply chain and operations capabilities to help clients with their transformation to intelligent, customer-centric supply chains supporting profitable growth."
“We are looking forward to starting a new chapter with Accenture and contributing our skills, culture and extensive supply chain capabilities to Accenture’s substantive network of clients and partners,” Carter McNabb, Partner at GRA, said. “With supply chains across sectors at a pivotal junction, we are confident that this combination will enable both our team and clients to continue to grow and innovate at an accelerated pace.”
