About KEPLER

KEPLER is a data & analytics consultancy built for industry — engineering, manufacturing, process and asset-heavy businesses. We don't just hand over a roadmap or a presentation: we build the platform, ship the models and stay until the solution is live and delivering.

Who we are

Engineered for industry, accountable for outcomes

KEPLER Advanced Analytics is the data & AI arm of Kepler Consulting Group — a strategy, procurement, supply chain and operations consultancy advising industrial groups, automotive, cosmetics, luxury, retail and private equity from offices in Paris, Detroit, Shanghai and Chennai.

We were founded on a simple observation: the big analytics firms lean consumer and finance, while the businesses running the physical world — plants, fleets, supply chains, assets — were left with generic playbooks that never made it past the pilot. As the Group's specialist data practice, we pair that 16+ years of industrial consulting heritage with data engineering, analytics and AI. We learn the domain, we build and implement the platform and the models, and we stay accountable for the outcome rather than handing off a recommendation and moving on.

The group

The specialist data practice of an established consulting group

Kepler Consulting Group brings deep, hands-on expertise in procurement, supply chain and operations to industrial and asset-heavy businesses. KEPLER Advanced Analytics is its sister concern specialised in data — the team that turns the Group's operational know-how into dashboards, forecasts, should-cost models and decision systems, and engineers them into your data stack.

Group consulting DNA

Strategy, procurement, supply chain and operations expertise built over 16+ years with industrial groups, automotive, cosmetics, luxury and retail.

A dedicated data arm

KAA focuses purely on data engineering, BI, analytics and AI — so the domain depth is real, not borrowed from a generalist playbook.

Global delivery, local presence

Delivery from the Group's offices across Europe, the Americas and Asia, with an India analytics hub in Chennai.

What we bring together

Consulting, engineering and domain expertise in one team

KEPLER brings together consulting, engineering, data analytics and domain expertise to help industrial businesses move from fragmented data to implemented decision systems.

What we value

The principles behind every engagement

01

Domain depth

We learn your process, your assets and your regulatory reality before we start building — depth that horizontal players don't carry in.

02

Build & implement

We don't stop at the recommendation. We build the pipeline, ship the model and integrate it into how your teams actually work.

03

Outcome accountability

We stay until the solution is live and delivering — accountable to the decision it changes, not the slide that described it.

Leadership

The people behind KEPLER

Senior practitioners with deep roots in industrial operations and data — backed by Kepler Consulting Group's strategy, procurement and supply-chain teams.
