Bench and Book

126 seats sit on the bench; 42 sit in the requisition book

The 126 on the bench are delivery stock the four vendors can put on a statement of work today; the 42 in the book are the seats they still have to buy.

126 is the seat, not the vendor

126 adds only four rows: Accenture 32, Infosys 23, Cognizant 39, Capgemini 32. It reads opened GenAI delivery titles, not any vendor's company size.

42 is the book the four still have to buy

42 adds mapped open jobs on the same titles only: Accenture 1, Infosys 25, Cognizant 2, Capgemini 14. A buyer reads it as how much of the seat the vendor is still short.

Infosys is the only near-tie

Infosys maps 23 current and 25 open jobs. It is the only one of the four rows where the book is thicker than the bench, so that delivery capacity is being sold and built at the same time.

The thickest bench carries the thinnest book

Cognizant maps 39 current, the thickest of the four rows, and 2 open jobs, the thinnest. The largest stock is not the largest buyer, and a buyer has to ask those two questions separately.

How to use this exhibit.This is a vendor-DD exhibit, not a roster. It gives procurement one checkable delivery-bench baseline: who holds stock, who is restocking, and whose titles actually name this seat. The full four-vendor pack can be requested through the form.
four vendor bench boxes with inset requisition squares: Accenture 32/1, Infosys 23/25, Cognizant 39/2, Capgemini 32/14
Box length is mapped current; the solid square inside it is mapped open jobs. Only the Infosys square comes close to filling its own box.
Hiring Wall

Infosys is the hiring wall: 23 on the bench, 25 in the book

Infosys maps 23 current against 25 open jobs. Its bench-to-book ratio is 0.9, the only one of the four below 1.

What a ratio below 1 means

The 25 open jobs outnumber the 23 people already on the seat. A buyer is looking at delivery capacity being expanded, not capacity already built: part of the promised seat has no name on it yet.

The one question to ask in DD

The question is not how many GenAI people the vendor has. It is whether the seats staffed on your programme come from the 23 already on the bench or from the 25 still in the book. Those two answers carry very different delivery risk.

What this does not say

A thick book is not the same as weak delivery; demand may genuinely be rising. It only says the ready-now share of this capacity is low, which is worth turning into a named-commitment clause at bid time.

How this seat was lit up

The Infosys row rests on two opened official titles: GenAI Engineer (Domain Delivery) and Gen/Agentic AI Engineer. It was not padded out with consulting roles.

How to read this.23 and 25 are two ledgers on the same titles, not the same people counted twice. The rate at which talent flows onto this seat is the second number procurement can ask for.
Stock-heavy

Cognizant is stock-heavy: 39 on the bench, 2 in the book

Cognizant maps 39 current, the thickest bench of the four rows, against 2 open jobs, the thinnest book. The ratio is 19.5.

The most ready-now capacity

The 39 people already carrying this title are the largest ready-now pool of the four rows. For a programme that has to start this quarter, that is the most direct positive signal on the page.

Two ways to read a book of 2

One reading is that the capacity is already built and needs no more buying. The other is that it is not on the expansion plan. Those diverge over a contract term, so ask which one it is.

Stock is not availability

The 39 is mapped current, not unassigned. What a buyer needs is how much of the 39 is movable on the contract start date, and only the vendor can attest to that layer.

How this seat was lit up

The Cognizant row rests on one opened official title: Python Gen AI Engineer. One title carrying 39 current seats says this vendor names the seat in a very concentrated way.

The two ends together.Cognizant 39 / 2 and Infosys 23 / 25 are the two ends of this bench. The four rows add to 126 / 42, a ratio of 3.0: 3 seats on the bench for every 1 in the book.
Title Admission

Nine opened official titles are the map; generic consultant is not

This bench admits opened official titles only. A seat whose title names GenAI / Agentic AI engineering or development is in; a generic consulting role is not.

Nine titles across four integrators. The title-admission table is the entry rule for this bench and the second table in the vendor pack.

The sieve is the title written on the requisition. The three deflected labels never entered this bench.
Labels that were not used as the map.Generic consultant, GenAI SWE and AI Delivery SWE were not used to widen this bench. Smearing a delivery seat into consulting is the most common way this kind of comparison goes wrong.
Vendor Compare

The four-vendor row-for-row compare a buyer can lift into a DD pack

Four rows on one seat, one as-of and one set of titles. The bench-to-book column is mapped current divided by mapped open jobs — division only, no new figures.

Same methodology

Take this table into your vendor DD: request this pack, or recut the seat on your own shortlist

The pack ships the four rows above, the bench-to-book column and the nine opened official titles, on the same methodology and the same as-of. Swap in the integrators you are actually evaluating and the same seat is recut. A work email is all that is needed.

Onshore Risk

Where this seat concentrates: the United States, India, the EU

The four official pages opened for this check do not all sit where the vendor brand sits: the Accenture req is Warsaw, the Cognizant req is India, the Capgemini req is New York, and the Infosys req is posted on a global careers board.

United States

Onshore delivery and client-site work are the most expensive line on a rate card. The Capgemini GenAI / Agentic AI Developer req is posted in New York, so an onshore seat is not one vendor's exclusive trait.

India

India is normally where an integrator restocks this seat fastest. The Cognizant Python Gen AI Engineer req sits on its India site, and that should be read together with its thickest bench.

European Union

Data residency and works councils change a delivery plan directly. The Accenture req opened for this check is in Warsaw, inside the EU, which is not the same thing as negotiating a vendor as if it were one location.

This page publishes no country or city split integers. Concentration appears only as a direction for the onshore-risk question: onshore is a per-requisition question, not a per-vendor one. A country-level cut can be rerun on the same methodology inside the vendor pack.

Off The Bench

TCS and IBM Consulting are not rows on this bench

Four rows are four rows. Two names a buyer would expect to see are left off the bench, and the reason is written here instead of being filled in with an estimate.

TCS

No titled individual-contributor requisition was opened on this seat. No title means no admission, so TCS gets no row and no other job family is substituted for it.

IBM Consulting

It shares one parent record with Research and Cloud. Unioning those would turn a delivery-bench table into a company table, so they are neither unioned nor split out here.

Also not on this page

No total workforce, no ranking by company size, no personal names. This page reads one seat and compares only on that seat.

Judgments this page does not make

It does not score delivery quality, rank vendors or forecast. It supplies one checkable bench baseline and leaves the rest to a buyer's evaluation sheet.

Do not extrapolate.A name off the bench does not stand for zero. It stands for no titled evidence in this check, which is why it gets no row.
Methodology

How the seat was cut, and what the four numbers do not say

The seat cut

A seat enters only when its title names GenAI / Agentic AI or Data-and-AI delivery engineering or development, and only from opened official titles: Accenture Senior GenAI Engineer, GenAI Engineer (Mid) (AI&Data), Fullstack AI Engineer (GEN AI); Infosys GenAI Engineer (Domain Delivery), Gen/Agentic AI Engineer; Cognizant Python Gen AI Engineer; Capgemini GenAI / Agentic AI Developer, Python & GenAI Engineer, Gen AI Engineer. Generic consultant, GenAI SWE and AI Delivery SWE were not used as the map.

Current and open jobs

Mapped current means profiles Metix maps as currently employed at that integrator with a title from the list above. Mapped open jobs means visible open requisitions mapped to the same titles. Neither is official headcount, and neither is a vendor's total workforce.

Names and sums

Each integrator is read on one vendor record; leftover records are not unioned. The 126 / 42 sums add the Accenture, Infosys, Cognizant and Capgemini rows only. The bench-to-book column is this page's own two columns divided and introduces no new figure. This page publishes no country or city split integers.

FAQ

Questions this report answers

How many GenAI delivery seats do the four system integrators map?
As of August 31, 2026 PT, Accenture 32, Infosys 23, Cognizant 39 and Capgemini 32 add to 126 mapped current GenAI / Data-and-AI delivery seats, against 42 mapped open jobs on the same titles. These are Metix-mapped counts on opened official titles, not official headcount and not a vendor's total workforce. Source: Metix AI.
Which integrator is the hiring wall, and which one is stock-heavy?
Infosys is the hiring wall: 23 mapped current against 25 mapped open jobs, a bench-to-book ratio of 0.9, so the seat is being bought roughly as fast as it is staffed. Cognizant is stock-heavy: 39 mapped current against 2 mapped open jobs, a ratio of 19.5. Accenture sits at 32 current / 1 job and Capgemini at 32 current / 14 jobs. Source: Metix AI.
Which titles carry this seat, and which vendors are not rows on this bench?
Nine opened official titles carry the seat: Accenture Senior GenAI Engineer, GenAI Engineer (Mid) (AI&Data), Fullstack AI Engineer (GEN AI); Infosys GenAI Engineer (Domain Delivery), Gen/Agentic AI Engineer; Cognizant Python Gen AI Engineer; Capgemini GenAI / Agentic AI Developer, Python & GenAI Engineer, Gen AI Engineer. Generic consultant, GenAI SWE and AI Delivery SWE were not used as the map. TCS is not a row because no titled individual-contributor req was opened on this seat, and IBM Consulting is not a row because it shares a parent record with Research and Cloud and was not unioned. Official hiring pages opened for this check: https://accenture.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/AccentureCareers/job/Warsaw-Sienna-39/Senior-Agentic-AI---Data-Engineer_R00318995 ; https://digitalcareers.infosys.com/global-careers/company-job/description/reqid/151780BR ; https://careers.cognizant.com/india-en/jobs/00069794036/python-gen-ai-engineer/ ; https://careers.capgemini.com/job/New-York-GenAI-Agentic-AI-Developer/1412574133/ .
What can a procurement team do with this exhibit, and what is in the vendor pack?
The four rows are a bench baseline for vendor due diligence: read mapped current as delivery stock a vendor can move onto a statement of work today, and mapped open jobs as the seat the vendor still has to buy. The vendor pack ships the same four-vendor table, the bench-to-book column and the opened title list on the same methodology, and the seat can be recut on a buyer's own shortlist. The pack is aggregate only and carries no personal information.
