KPMG UK Becomes a Team Topologies Solution Partner to Accelerate Enterprise Value Delivery

 

LEEDS, UK – 14 April 2026 – Team Topologies, a company whose approach organises businesses and technology teams to provide rapid value and efficiency, today announced that professional services firm KPMG UK has become a Team Topologies Solution Partner (TTSP). This alliance marks a significant milestone in the adoption of modern organisational dynamics and makes KPMG UK the first of the "Big Four" consultancies to achieve accredited TTSP status.

The announcement comes at a critical time when large enterprises and public sector organisations are increasingly mandating Team Topologies expertise in their procurement processes. According to Matthew Skelton, co-author of Team Topologies, the consultancy landscape has shifted significantly since 2023, with Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and tenders now specifically requesting Team Topologies expertise as a requirement for bids.

“Over the past few years, we’ve seen a steady increase in the number of RFPs from Governments, manufacturers, and large financial institutions asking for specific expertise in Team Topologies. We’re therefore delighted to work with KPMG as a key supplier in these sectors to extend the reach and success of the Team Topologies approach at scale,” said Matthew Skelton, Co-Author of Team Topologies.

KPMG UK was selected for TTSP status due to its proven track record of applying Team Topologies principles to drive success. Notably, KPMG teams in the UK and Switzerland have already used these ideas in multiple customer engagements, including the development of the KPMG Learning Services Platform, used by key clients to support more than a million learners. 

Jonathan Grice, Public Sector Lead for AI Platforms and Engineering at KPMG UK said: “At KPMG UK we have already used the Team Topologies approach to structure some of our engineering teams, streamlining workflows for our engineers. This alliance allows us to work closely together, combining our sector and technical expertise with the Team Topologies approach, aiming to improve efficiency and return on investment for clients. With our accredited TTSP status, we look forward to taking this forward and building on how we are implementing this approach in our work.”

The alliance will focus initially on four main sectors where the application of these principles could drive measurable return on investment in the form of shorter time-to-value, improved efficiency, greater clarity of purpose, and increased staff wellbeing:

  • Public Sector

  • Financial Services

  • Energy

  • Retail

To facilitate these outcomes, KPMG UK will use the Team Topologies Enterprise Transformation Package (ETP). Curated directly by the Team Topologies authors and core practitioners, the ETP provides partners with exclusive blueprints, workshops, reports, and guides, together with on-ramp enablement and upskilling. By using the ETP, KPMG UK can accelerate the rate of change within client organisations, establishing a common language for transformation and ensuring initiatives achieve business outcomes sooner.

With this announcement, KPMG UK becomes the fourth Solution Partner in the UK, joining a select global ecosystem. Worldwide, there are now eight accredited Team Topologies Solution Partners helping organisations organise for fast flow.
