EY has acquired Red Moki, a technology consultancy headquartered in New Zealand that specializes in ServiceNow implementations.

Chunck of Red Moki’s team will join EY in Auckland and Wellington, with smaller teams based in Australia and India.
Rich Macfarlane, a partner in EY’s Technology Consulting practice, said the company was experiencing “unprecedented growth in the ServiceNow space” and that EY had long been a “great admirer of Red Moki’s work”, so the “deciding to ask them to join EY was an obvious one.
