NEW RESEARCH: Enterprise Software & App Services Supplier Landscape 2014

The word tripping off the tongues of most suppliers these days is ‘digital’. It means different things to different people but one thing is clear – supplier activity is driven by the race for change around digital transformation. The latest report from the ESASViews research stream - Enterprise Software & Application Services Supplier Landscape 2014 – assesses the progress of the leading suppliers to the UK market and the critical digital success factors.

Speed, approaches and progress vary widely but there are some common themes. For suppliers, digital progress revolves around the intelligent provision of the technologies and services needed to enable digital transformation. The stakes are being raised however, because it is now also about the convergence of the various technologies (cloud, mobile, big data/analytics and social/collaboration), which is akin to keeping bucking broncos under control. This is driving diversity of performance - not just between suppliers but within suppliers. Another prominent theme is the criticality of providing bridges between legacy and digital environments – which aligns with the TechMarketView theme for 2015: Joining the Dots.

With traditional ESAS areas in a low/no growth rut, suppliers have to get digital strategies right in order to remain relevant in the market. The challenge is gauging the pace and matching investments, commercial models and the product and service business mix so that revenue continues to flow from traditional business areas, while digital-related revenues ramp up.
