When enterprises talk about digital transformation today, the conversation has moved beyond technology adoption—it’s now about execution at scale. For Hitachi Solutions, that next phase will be led by a seasoned transformation executive.
The company has appointed Roger Lvin as Chief Executive Officer and President, effective immediately, marking a strategic leadership shift as it accelerates global growth and deepens its role in enterprise transformation.
A Leadership Move Aligned with Scale and Execution
Lvin steps into the role with more than two decades of experience building and scaling high-performance, technology-led consulting organizations. His leadership is expected to sharpen Hitachi Solutions’ ability to help enterprises turn digital initiatives into measurable outcomes—an area where many large organizations continue to struggle.
Before this appointment, Lvin served as Founding CEO of Hitachi Digital Services, where he built the business from the ground up. Under his leadership, the unit established itself as a credible partner for global enterprises navigating digital transformation and IT-OT convergence.
His earlier tenure at Cognizant further reinforces this track record, where he led the Digital Operations business and helped scale it into a multi-billion-dollar global operation.
Strengthening Position in Microsoft-Centric Transformation
Under Lvin’s leadership, Hitachi Solutions is expected to reinforce its position as a trusted partner for large-scale enterprise transformation, particularly within the Microsoft ecosystem.
As a Microsoft-first organization, the company continues to build on its strategic partnership with Microsoft, leveraging AI-enabled cloud, data platforms, and business applications to deliver transformation outcomes. This focus is aligned with growing enterprise demand for integrated solutions that combine cloud, AI, and operational data into unified platforms.
At the same time, Lvin will play a key role in advancing collaboration across Hitachi Ltd. under its “One Hitachi” strategy—an initiative aimed at integrating capabilities across its global portfolio of companies.
Leadership at a Pivotal Moment
According to Soichiro Ohara, the appointment comes at a critical point in the company’s evolution.
As enterprises accelerate digital transformation efforts, the ability to deliver consistent, scalable outcomes is becoming a key differentiator among service providers. Lvin’s experience in driving growth, operational discipline, and innovation is expected to support Hitachi Solutions as it expands its global footprint.
Driving the Next Phase of Enterprise Transformation
For Lvin, the focus goes beyond scaling the business—it’s about aligning technology with broader organizational impact.
He emphasized the opportunity to build on Hitachi’s legacy of social innovation while helping enterprises unlock new growth opportunities through digital transformation. This includes leveraging AI, data, and cloud technologies to create competitive advantage and long-term value.
Positioned for Global Growth
Headquartered in Tokyo and operating across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, Hitachi Solutions continues to expand its reach as part of the broader Hitachi group.
With Lvin at the helm, the company is positioning itself to deliver transformation at scale—combining consulting expertise, platform capabilities, and ecosystem partnerships to meet the evolving demands of global enterprises.
