CGI Inc. completed its acquisition of Comarch Polska SA on January 5 2026, adding more than 460 IT and business‑consulting professionals to its global workforce. The deal brings CGI’s total presence in Poland and the Baltic States to roughly 1,500 employees, a significant increase that strengthens its footprint in a region where public‑sector demand is growing.
The transaction is a key element of CGI’s “Build and Buy” strategy, which has guided the company through more than 105 acquisitions since 1986. By bringing in Comarch’s expertise in public‑sector ERP, digital process, and managed‑services solutions, CGI is positioning itself to capture a larger share of the Polish government’s IT transformation agenda and to leverage best practices across its European operations.
The addition of Comarch’s talent pool is expected to accelerate CGI’s AI‑enabled service delivery in the region. Comarch’s digital‑process capabilities complement CGI’s existing managed‑services portfolio, allowing the firm to offer end‑to‑end solutions that combine cloud, automation, and data analytics—capabilities that are in high demand among public‑sector clients seeking to modernize legacy systems.
Financially, the deal is anticipated to strengthen CGI’s recurring‑revenue mix and support margin expansion, although the transaction value was not disclosed. CGI reported fiscal 2025 revenue of CA$15.91 billion, and the acquisition is expected to add to that momentum by expanding the company’s managed‑services pipeline and reinforcing its recurring‑revenue base.
Management emphasized the strategic fit of the deal. Niraj Sood, CGI President for Finland, Poland and the Baltics, said the acquisition “reinforces our presence in Poland and the Baltic States by leveraging our deep expertise in the public sector and transferring proven capabilities from our operations across Europe.” Senior Vice‑President Bartłomiej Nieścierowicz added that the move “creates significant growth opportunities in the public sector by combining local expertise with CGI’s technology portfolio.” Tomasz Matysik, CEO of Comarch Polska, noted that joining CGI would expand the company’s public‑sector reach through access to globally developed solutions adapted for the Polish market.
While no market‑reaction data is available, the acquisition represents a strategic milestone for CGI, expanding its capabilities in a high‑growth public‑sector market and reinforcing its long‑term growth strategy in Europe.
