To speed up the creation of digital products for the MVP Group, Kayana Solutions Inc. (“Kayana”) and Accenture (NYSE: ACN) today announced a strategic partnership to construct a digital factory.
“Digital is charting the economic future of the Philippines as with most countries in the world, and we are committed to creating new ways in which Filipinos can realize its benefits. Establishing ‘Kayana’ is about delivering on this promise,” said Manny V. Pangilinan, Chairman and CEO, Kayana Solutions, Inc. “The digital factory will bring together the skills and competencies that the Group needs to deliver hyper-personalized experiences that meet the needs of Filipinos.”
“We share Kayana’s ‘can do’ spirit. We are proud to collaborate with the MVP Group and bring together the best of Accenture’s services and capabilities to support the MVP Group in creating value for Filipino enterprises and consumers,” said Ambe Tierro, country managing director and technology lead of Accenture in the Philippines.
Accenture’s expertise in data- and AI-driven consumer experiences, as well as cloud-based solutions, will be used to power the digital factory. Accenture will manage Kayana’s brand strategy, product research, and user interface (UI) / user experience (UX) design through Song, its tech-powered creative department. The digital factory will also address the digital demands of other MVP Group firms, as well as Filipino enterprises looking to establish digital services.
“By tapping into Accenture Song’s expertise in design and digital products, marketing, commerce and service, we are combining creativity, innovation, and technology to push boundaries and help Kayana deliver on its commitment to customer-centric innovation,” added Tierro.
“Customer experience is the heart of the relationship between a business and its customers. We are excited to bring our expertise and help Kayana embark in reimagining experiences and building relevance for businesses and consumers across channels and platforms,” said Flaviano Faleiro, Accenture Song’s president in Asia Pacific.
