Velv

Velv provided staff augmentation services to CGI, a global IT and business consulting company. The company needed assistance in identifying and selecting IT consultants who had excellent technical expertise coupled with strong soft skills. Velv's primary task was to provide these skilled professionals to help enhance CGI's team, thereby ensuring high-quality service and increased value to their clients. Beyond this, Velv also supplied a wide range of consultant profiles, including full-stack developers, DevOps engineers, architects, and other technical roles, based on CGI's changing requirements.

The scope of Velv's involvement was immense, extending beyond identifying and supplying talented consultants. They also ensured these professionals were well-integrated into CGI's existing teams and contributed significantly to day-to-day delivery. Emphasis was placed on strong technical expertise, soft skills, reliability, and continual alignment with the quality of services CGI provided to their clients. Thanks to Velv's support, CGI was able to reinforce varying teams and projects with the exact skills needed whenever they arose.

Having been referred to Velv, CGI chose to work with them in April 2017. The engagement is still ongoing due to several factors, including a good cultural fit, favorable pricing, and Velv's company values aligning with those of CGI. In addition to this, Velv offered excellent value for cost, ensuring that their solutions have turned out to be a worthwhile investment for CGI. The collaboration has proved to be a successful one, with Velv's team now boasting over 15 members actively working on various projects.
