Congratulations to those suppliers that have made it into the Leading Pack for this year’s Market Readiness Index (MRI) report: Market Readiness Index: The Road to AI Part 2.
The MRI report is one of the core research outputs for our Tech User Programme (TUP) for CIOs and other senior tech buyers. It is based on a proprietary assessment 
methodology developed by our analysts to understand and quantify the performance of tech suppliers.
This edition has been specifically created to enable senior tech buyers to ascertain their compatibility with the leading UK IT Services providers in order to support their AI journey.
By applying our highly regarded, rigorous research approach, TechMarketView analysts have assessed suppliers across six areas as they pertain to AI: Corporate Resilience; Suitability of Offerings; Skills & Resources; Partner Ecosystem; Industry Expertise; and Delivery & Execution. This involves undertaking multiple in-depth research interviews with various functions/leaders within the supplier organisation to gain an extensive understanding of strategy, capability, investments and so on. Much of this information is not available in the public domain, and combined with our proprietary data and analysis, enables our analysts to construct unique profiling of suppliers.
Market Readiness Index: The Road to AI Part 2 is a combination of scoring and in-depth profiles giving a realistic and honest appraisal of the readiness of each supplier to address the AI – and in particular the Generative AI – needs of the market.
Those in this year’s cohort sit within the second half of the Top 20 ranking players in the UK market (based on TechMarketView analysis). They are: BT Group, CGI, Deloitte, Fujitsu, Kyndryl, NTT Data, PwC, Sopra Steria, Tech Mahindra, and Wipro.
The 2025 Leading Pack
We’ve pored over the data and scoring, grilled the vendors, and spoken candidly with buyers and can now reveal that the Leading Pack (i.e., those suppliers exceeding the average score for the overall group in each category) consists of: Deloitte, PwC, NTT Data, and Wipro. Big congratulations!
Nonetheless, we highly recommend that you read the full report to understand the narrative behind the scoring and which suppliers are best suited to your aims and culture.
