[[Accenture]] is a global management consulting, technology services and outsourcing company.<ref>[http://www.accenture.com/Global/About_Accenture/default.htm About Accenture], Accenture, accessed 25 July 2010.</ref>

The firm was founded in 1989 as Andersen Consulting, by partners from a number of [[Arthur Andersen]] firms around the world. The company changed its name to Accenture on 1 January 2001, as the result of an arbitrator’s decision in August 2000 that severed the contractual ties between Accenture and [[Andersen Worldwide Société Coopérative]] (AWSC). Accenture became a public company when it listed on the [[New York Stock Exchange]] on 19 July 2001.<ref>[http://www.accenture.com/Global/About_Accenture/Company_Overview/History/AccentureLeader.htm Accenture: The Growth of a Global Leader], Accenture, accessed 25 July 2010.</ref>
