IT Services Sector Scorecard - Thematic Intelligence

Companies scoring strongly in the cloud, data analytics, and future of work themes lead the thematic screen of the publisher's IT services sector scorecard. The ranking is dominated by the global IT services giants Accenture, IBM, and Infosys, closely followed by Capgemini, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), and NTT Data. Indian-headquartered vendors account for four of the top 10 positions, suggesting they are successfully adapting their strategies to the long-term concern of a declining cost advantage versus their US and European peers.

Key Highlights

Leading IT services companies are upskilling their workforces in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, particularly generative AI, as they see a significant advisory opportunity. This typically comes in the form of partnerships with cloud vendors like Alphabet, Microsoft, and Amazon. A case in point is Accenture, which announced a $3 billion investment this quarter to expand its data and AI practice to offer new industry solutions and pre-built models.
