Key Findings & Highlights:
Expleo is the organization resulting from the 2018 acquisition by Assystem Technologies (ATG), an engineering and R&D services (ER&D) vendor, of Software Quality Systems (SQS). Germany-headquartered SQS was, until Q1 2018, the largest QA/software testing service pure-play globally.
Expleo had 2022 revenues of ~€1.3bn, up 23%, high growth ambition for 2023, and a headcount of 17k. The company operates in two broad areas: engineering and R&D services and QA. The company is majority-owned by PE Ardian, with Assystem as a minority shareholder.
Expleo provides QA services through its Quality Management Consulting (QMC) practice, the former SQS. After several years of flat growth, QMC is back to high growth, thanks to a buoyant market and its service portfolio refresh.
