ENGIE selects Kony to accelerate its digital transformation

ENGIE (known as GDF SUEZ prior to April 2015) is a French multinational energy utility company, headquartered in La D?fense, Courbevoie, France. ENGIE employs around 155,000 people worldwide and operates in 70 countries. Impressed by Kony’s ability to quickly design, build and deploy secure, enterprise-grade mobile apps across multiple devices and operating systems, ENGIE chose Kony’s Mobility Platform and solutions for its enterprise-wide Digital Transformation initiative. As part of ENGIE’s new Digital Factory, Kony will help the Group build several consumer-facing and employee productivity mobile apps.

“The global partnership between ENGIE and Kony was born from a desire to support our Digital Transformation initiative through new value-added services,” said Isabelle Kocher, CEO, ENGIE. “It also aims to enhance the digital skills of ENGIE’s teams and enable us to meet the needs of our business units to accelerate the time to market of mobile application projects for customers, partners and employees.”

By fully adopting enterprise mobility across their organisation, ENGIE is focused on achieving the company’s business objectives of driving significant improvements in customer satisfaction, increasing market share and lowering costs through faster mobile application development cycles through the newly launched Digital Factory.

“Digital will transform virtually all industries, companies, and geographies,” said Thomas E. Hogan, chairman and CEO, Kony, Inc.”  “It will transcend and shape value, service levels, quality, and the customer experience.  Companies will either lead, become a fast-follower, or perish.  Fortunately for ENGIE and its customers, Isabelle Kocher has elected to assert ENGIE as a digital innovator and leader in the new energy world.  Kony is thrilled to partner with this visionary leader and an iconic brand, and to leverage our market leading mobility solutions in their digital journey.”
