Accenture (NYSE: ACN) has been positioned as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Cloud Professional Services 2020 Vendor Assessment.*
The IDC MarketScape assessed the 2020 cloud professional services market through the IDC MarketScape model, providing a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the characteristics that highlight each vendor’s success in the marketplace. This evaluation is based on a comprehensive framework and set of parameters expected to be most conducive to success in providing cloud professional services in both the short term and the long term.
Accenture’s strengths for end-to-end cloud solutions include strong capabilities in the underlying cloud technology platforms and applications, accelerating migration to cloud and driving innovation and growth. Additional strengths cited within the report include:
- Applications-centric platforms: To help clients navigate changes to build a cloud solution that best fits their unique strategic business needs, Accenture launched its myNav platform. myNav is assisting businesses to lower the risk, cost, and the time required to achieve strategic business objectives while navigating the cloud.
- Innovation capabilities: Accenture continues to invest heavily to mature its capabilities, and its strategy continues to focus on scaling and integrating its existing services. It also develops new services to adapt to buyers’ preferences around industry-specific or horizontal cloud stacks.
- Overall growth: Starting approximately 12 years ago, Accenture has deep experience as an early mover implementing cloud services for its customers, and that continues to benefit it today.
