NTT said the integration in what it calls the EMEAL region "is a fundamental step toward operating as one NTT Data globally, which aims to simplify and strengthen the organisation, reflect its shared vision and values, as well as enhance greater and more seamless collaboration under a single NTT DATA brand". It said the move "will enable NTT Data to further collaborate with other NTT group companies as one NTT and jointly provide clients, communities and people with end-to-end value propositions from business consulting, industry solutions, digital and IT modernisation, business process services, and managed services to edge-to-cloud network fabric". Kaz Nishihata, senior executive VP of NTT Data, said: "An integrated EMEAL region means a simpler and stronger organisation and is a fundamental step to becoing one NTT Data and one NTT in order to add more value to clients, communities and people."
