NEW YORK, NY, USA, 16 December 2020—Deloitte has been named a worldwide leader for the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Application Management (AM) Services on the Cloud 2020 Vendor Assessment. (doc#US46924517, November 2020). Deloitte is recognised as a leader based on its capabilities and strategies.

“Deloitte's AM services on the cloud offering provides the full life cycle of services including advisory, implementation, and operations to deliver, maintain, and enhance client technologies across a wide range of industries worldwide,” notes Peter Marston, Research Director, Worldwide Intelligent Application Services at IDC, and author of the report. “Deloitte’s services are scalable and flexible and include specialty and technology-centric offerings structured by subscription, outcome/output, or labour resources used across all cloud types.”

IDC defines cloud-native Application Management services as, “aimed at supporting buyer organisation needs for managing applications on modern infrastructure that includes public and private clouds.”

Vendors were evaluated based on several criteria: revenue; multifunctional and end-to-end services capability across AM services on the cloud disciplines; full portfolio of AM service capability; worldwide delivery capabilities in the Americas, EMEA, and APAC; and request for information (RFI) questionnaire completion.

“We’re proud to be named by the IDC MarketScape as a leader in the cloud-native Application Management services category,” said Ayan Chatterjee, Emerging Businesses and Operate Services Leader, Deloitte Consulting LLP. “At Deloitte, we’re committed to helping clients reimagine, implement and sustain their futures through cutting-edge cloud technologies, industry ecosystems, alliance relationships, and modern delivery models.”

On the vendor landscape IDC notes, “The cloud has become a predominant hosting environment choice for organisations… the vast set of organisations that offer AM services on the cloud can create challenges for buyer organisations looking to select the right partner.”

“In this fast-moving business environment, organisations can feel like they’re playing catch-up to keep up with technology demands. Our customised approach to AM on the Cloud and our breadth of capabilities gives our clients the ability to unlock creative ways to generate value and new opportunities to reimagine their business” says Rich Tragon, Global Operate Leader, Deloitte Consulting LLP.

“As we look to the future, Deloitte will continue to tap into its breadth of capabilities across a global footprint to serve clients worldwide,” adds John Ciaramella, Global Application Management Services Leader, Deloitte Consulting LLP. “As businesses face new challenges in years to come, we will remain innovative in our approach and continue to invest in the latest developments to propel a technology-centric approach that drives business outcomes.”
