ZÜRICH, CH / ACCESS Newswire / April 23, 2026 / Akkodis, a global leader in digital engineering consulting and part of the Adecco Group has been named a "Leader" by Information Services Group (ISG) in the ISG Provider Lens™ Digital Engineering Services 2026 reports, recognizing the company's strength across critical engineering and technology domains in Europe and the United States.

Akkodis earned Leader status in the following quadrants:

• Integrated Platform and Application Services (Europe and U.S.)

Leadership in augmented design & R&D services

ISG highlights Akkodis' expertise in end‑to‑end product development, including systems architecture, Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) integration, unified tool chains and multi‑domain engineering. The company's digital twin methodologies support deep physical-digital integration for safety‑critical products. By integrating engineering and digital toolchains, Akkodis accelerates agile product development from concept to lifecycle management across automotive, aerospace, rail and industrial sectors.

ISG also recognizes Akkodis' leadership in software-defined vehicle (SDV) engineering, with capabilities spanning hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) automation, telemetry pipelines, cloud‑scale validation and AI‑supported analytics. This has been successfully showcased through the Akkodis SDV Academy where clients accelerate advanced driver‑assistance systems (ADAS) and SDV verification while addressing engineering talent gaps. Expertise in embedded systems, sensor fusion and real‑time software reinforces Akkodis' position across mobility, industrial and defense applications.

Advancing intelligent operations & connected experiences

ISG recognizes Akkodis for advancing industrial intelligence and transforming factory and mission-critical operations. Through smart commissioning frameworks, digital twins and advanced simulation tools, the company helps clients accelerate digital factory planning, reduce layout risks and improve overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). Akkodis also supports predictive quality and maintenance through acoustic sensing, physics-based AI and data-driven diagnostics. Its operations capabilities (including ruggedized hardware engineering, over-the-air (OTA) lifecycle management and industrial asset health solutions), have been applied across industries and asset-intensive environments requiring reliability, safety compliance, environmental resilience and long-term continuity.

Strength in Integrated Platform & Application Services

Akkodis' digital solutions advance AI‑led autonomous engineering by accelerating validation, enhancing quality and enabling compliance‑by‑design at scale. In Europe, ISG highlights Akkodis' Unified AI Platform, powered by AI-Core, alongside its deep expertise in cloud, hybrid and sovereign architectures, including AWS, Azure and sovereign deployments, which helps organizations balance agility with security, compliance and data residency requirements.

In the U.S., ISG cites Akkodis' leadership in cloud‑native, MACH‑aligned modernization. Its AI‑enabled development frameworks embed intelligence into workflows, accelerating modernization and enabling personalized digital experiences. DevSecOps, compliance‑by‑design models and a secure, modular AI‑Core platform, enable Akkodis to provide scalable, cloud‑native innovation and flexible integration across modern enterprise and platform ecosystems.

"We are proud to receive this recognition from ISG which underscores the depth of Akkodis' global digital engineering expertise and our ability to combine AI‑driven engineering, cloud‑agnostic platforms and compliance‑by‑design at global scale to help clients innovate with Akkodis Intelligence across dynamic and complex environments," said Jo Debecker, President & CEO of Akkodis.

Shirish Madhukar Kulkarni, Lead Analyst, ISG, said, "Akkodis uniquely combines deep engineering expertise with AI‑led digital twins and scalable platforms to enable faster product innovation, resilient operations, and connected, data‑driven experiences." Srinivasan P N, Senior Lead Analyst, ISG added, "Akkodis' leadership is rooted in four decades of European engineering excellence, where systems engineering, validation depth and software defined innovation converge through Akkodis Intelligence to deliver trusted, AI enabled digital engineering at scale."
