Key Findings & Highlights:

International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) is an American multinational information technology company headquartered in Armonk, New York, operating in over 170 countries.

Founded in 1987, IBM's RPO business was previously known as Kenexa. IBM acquired the company in 2012 for its expertise in Talent Acquisition (TA), RPO, and assessments.

The company divested a segment of the IBM Technology Services and Cloud Platforms division, Global Technology Services, in 2021. This company is now known as Kyndryl and continues to support select IBM programs. In the fourth quarter of 2021, before the separation of Kyndryl, IBM made several changes to its organizational structure and management system to align with the company’s operating model. IBM’s operations consist of four primary business segments:

  • Software, formerly Cloud and Cognitive Software
  • Consulting, previously Global Business Services (GBS)
  • Infrastructure, formerly Systems
  • Financing, previously Global Financing.

IBM’s Consulting segment comprises three primary service areas:

  • Business Transformation
  • Technology Consulting
  • Application Operations.

IBM’s RPO services are part of TalentTransformation, which is positioned under the Consulting segment and take a consult-to-operate approach to deliver improved business results.

To further strengthen its digital innovation capabilities, the Consulting segment completed three acquisitions in 2021: TruQua Enterprises, Expertus Technologies, and 7Summits.

The “optimization” element of IBM's RPO solutions speaks to the company’s broader service offerings, which include outsourcing, consulting, and technology solutions that differentiate the company from its competitors.

This profile focuses on the RPO solutions provided by IBM.
