Accenture bookings drop eclipses upbeat revenue, unveils AI-focused revamp

A trader works on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, Tuesday, March 11, 2025. (AP Photo/Richard Drew) Accenture reported a second straight drop in quarterly new bookings on Friday and unveiled an organizational revamp to bolster its AI consulting services, as a cutback in U.S. government spending and economic uncertainty pressure growth. The bookings decline overshadowed the consulting giant's better-than-expected quarterly revenue and an increase in its annual forecasts, sending its shares down per cent before the bell. Consulting and IT firms are under pressure as U.S. tariffs and accompanying economic uncertainty force companies to rethink their spending plans, while the Trump administration's cost-cutting efforts have led to contract cancellations and delays. Accenture said bookings - which represent future revenue secured through contracts - fell six per cent to US$19.70 billion in its fiscal third quarter, below the Visible Alpha estimate of US$21.54 billion and worse than the three per cent decline in the previous quarter. CEO Julie Sweet said 30 clients recorded quarterly bookings of greater than US$100 million, compared with 32 in the previous quarter. Generative AI bookings totaled about US$1.5 billion. Rival IBM also reported a small consulting revenue drop in April and said 15 of its U.S. government contracts worth about $100 million were shelved under the cost-cutting drive, while Indian IT firms including Infosys have warned of a tough year ahead. To navigate the uncertainty, Accenture plans to focus on AI consulting with the creation of a new business unit called reinvention services, which would combine its AI offerings and be led by Manish Sharma, the head of its Americas business. Sharma will be succeeded by chief operating officer John Walsh, while Americas COO Kate Hogan will take over as global COO. In the May quarter, Accenture posted revenue of US$17.7 billion, beating analysts' average estimate of US$17.30 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG. That growth was powered by higher spending by its clients in the financial services industry. Profit per share of US$3.49 also beat estimates of US$3.32. Accenture now expects annual revenue growth of six to seven per cent, compared with its earlier expectation of five to seven per cent. --- Reporting by Meghana Khare and Jaspreet Singh in Bengaluru; Editing by Shinjini Ganguli

Jeep maker Stellantis weighs sale among options for Maserati, sources tell Reuters

The Stellantis sign is seen outside the Chrysler Technology Center, Jan. 19, 2021, in Auburn Hills, Mich., on April 26, 2023. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio) MILAN - Stellantis is considering a possible sale of its struggling luxury Maserati unit, among other options, two sources with knowledge of the matter said, as the automaker seeks to overhaul its sprawling portfolio of 14 brands. Discussions over Maserati's future started before new CEO Antonio Filosa, who starts on Monday, was appointed last month, while Stellantis was steered by Chair John Elkann. The viability of the French-Italian company's 14 brands - which include Chrysler, Peugeot, Jeep and Alfa Romeo - was a priority for Elkann as he interviewed candidates to fill the CEO job. Like other European carmakers, the world's fourth biggest automaker is facing hefty U.S. import tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump and struggling with stiff competition from Chinese rivals. Stellantis hired consultant McKinsey early in April to advise it on the effects of the U.S. tariffs on Maserati and Alfa Romeo as the two brands prepare future plans. Stellantis affirmed then that it was fully committed to both brands. However, a possible divestment of Maserati, its only luxury brand, is among the options McKinsey is exploring for Stellantis, the two sources told Reuters, adding the adviser's assessment was still in the early stages. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. Asked for comment, a Stellantis spokesperson said: 'Respectfully, Maserati is not for sale.' McKinsey declined to comment. Filosa's predecessor Carlos Tavares, who resigned in December after a poor performance in the U.S. market, had refused to consider getting rid of any of the carmaker's brands. But some investors and analysts say a streamlined portfolio would boost Stellantis' profit margins. Stellantis shares have lost two-thirds of their value since March last year. Falling sales Maserati's sales fell by more than half in 2024 to just 11,300 units and the unit posted an adjusted operating loss of 260 million euros ($298 million) last year. The brand currently has no new model launches scheduled as it waits for a new business plan, after its previous one was put on hold by Stellantis last year. Brand head Santo Ficili said earlier this month the plan would be presented soon after Filosa starts the job. One of the sources said Stellantis has been coming to terms with the fact that it has too many brands, making it difficult for it to properly invest in all of them. The carmaker needs to 'set priorities,' the source said. Stellantis has not specifically mandated McKinsey to find a buyer for Maserati, but the mandate is to consider all options, including a potential sale, the second source said. All options are on the table, the source said. Stellantis' board has been divided over plans for Maserati, one source said. Some board members think Stellantis is not in a position to sustainably re-launch Maserati and suggest selling it is the best option. Others think Maserati still has value and that selling its only luxury brand would be a huge reputational setback for Stellantis. Chinese automakers, such as Chery, might be among those interested in buying European auto brands, to support their expansion in the region, where they still lack brand recognition among consumers. This would be a similar move to SAIC's purchase of Britain's MG Motor or Geely's acquisition of Sweden's Volvo Cars in 2010.

How is Tesla expected to remotely control its robotaxis, and what are its limitations?

A fully functional, pre-production Tesla Cybercab, also known as the Robotaxi, is seen on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles on Friday, Nov. 29, 2024. (AP Photo/Richard Vogel) Tesla is expected to tiptoe into its long-awaited robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, as soon as Sunday with about 10 of its Model Y SUVs that will operate within strict limits. CEO Elon Musk has said the company is being 'super paranoid' about safety and that humans will remotely monitor the fleet. Remote access and control - known in the industry as 'teleoperation' - is used in varying degrees by the handful of robotaxi startups operating around the globe. The technology has clear advantages and important limitations. Here are some details of how it works: What is teleoperation? Teleoperation is the control of machines by humans in a different location, usually over a wireless network. It is used to train robots to operate autonomously, monitor their autonomous activity, and take over when required. How do robotaxi operators use teleoperation? The global robotaxi industry is still in test mode, as companies deploy the vehicles in limited geographic areas and continually adjust the artificial intelligence software that controls them. Teleoperation is often used to intervene when a vehicle is unsure of what to do. Alphabet's Waymo, for example, has a team of human 'fleet response' agents who respond to questions from the Waymo Driver - its bot. 'Much like phone-a-friend, when the Waymo vehicle encounters a particular situation on the road, the autonomous driver can reach out to a human fleet response agent for additional information,' Waymo said in a blog post last year. Former Waymo CEO John Krafcik told Reuters, 'The cars aren't being actively monitored,' adding that the software is 'the ultimate decision-maker.' A Waymo video shows a car asking a remote operator whether a street with emergency response vehicles is open to traffic. When the human says yes, the vehicle proceeds. In contrast, other companies, such as Baidu's Apollo Go in China, have used fully remote backup drivers who can step in to virtually drive the vehicles. Baidu declined to comment. What are the limitations? Driving vehicles remotely on public roads has a major potential problem: it relies on cellular data connections that can drop or operate with a lag, disconnecting the vehicle from the remote driver in dangerous situations. Philip Koopman, a Carnegie Mellon University engineering professor and autonomous-vehicle safety expert, said that approach could work for a small test deployment of 10 vehicles, such as Tesla's initial effort in Austin, but he called teleoperation 'inherently unreliable technology.' 'Eventually you will lose connection at exactly the worst time,' he said. 'If they've done their homework, this won't ever happen for 10 cars. With a million cars, it's going to happen every day.' Former Waymo CEO Krafcik agreed, adding that the time delay in cell signal makes remote driving 'very risky.' On the other hand, relying on the vehicle to reach out for help and allowing the vehicle to be the decision-maker are risky as well, Koopman said, as it does not guarantee the vehicle will make the right decision. Waymo declined to comment on the limitations of its approach. Koopman also noted there are limits to how many vehicles one person can safely monitor. A group of Democratic Texas lawmakers asked Tesla on Wednesday to delay its robotaxi launch until September, when a new autonomous-driving law is scheduled to take effect. The Austin-area lawmakers said in a letter that delaying the launch 'is in the best interest of both public safety and building public trust in Tesla's operations.' What is Tesla's approach? Musk for years has promised, without delivering, that its Full Self-Driving (Supervised) advanced driver assistance software would graduate to completely self-driving and control robotaxis. This year, he said Tesla would roll out a paid service in Austin underpinned by an 'unsupervised' version of the software. 'Teslas will be in the wild, with no one in them, in June, in Austin,' Musk told analysts and investors in January. In May, he told CNBC that the robotaxi would only operate in parts of Austin that are safe for it, would avoid difficult intersections, and would use humans to monitor the vehicles. What those teleoperators will do is not clear. For years inside Tesla, company executives have expected to use teleoperators who could take over in case of trouble, said one person familiar with the matter. For instance, if a robotaxi were stuck in a crowded pedestrian area and confused about what to do next, a human teleoperator could take over and guide it, the source said. Tesla advertised for teleoperation positions, saying the company needs the ability to 'access and control' autonomous vehicles and humanoid robots remotely. Such employees can 'remotely perform complex and intricate tasks,' it said in the advertisements. Tesla did not respond to a request for comment. 'We are being super paranoid about safety, so the date could shift,' Musk said in a post on X last week while providing a tentative launch date of June 22.
