ISG to Publish Reports on Intelligent Automation Providers

STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Information Services Group ( ISG ) (Nasdaq: III ), a leading global technology research and advisory firm, has launched a research study examining providers of intelligent automation services designed to improve operating efficiency and customer experience.

The study results will be published in a comprehensive series of ISG Provider Lens™ reports, called Intelligent Automation Services, scheduled to be released in December 2024. Two geographically focused reports will evaluate providers of intelligent enterprise automation, artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps) and next-gen automation services, including generative AI (GenAI).

The reports do not cover independent advisory firms, such as ISG Automation , that are platform-agnostic and offer integration and support services across a variety of platforms.

Enterprise buyers will be able to use information from the reports to evaluate their current vendor relationships, potential new engagements and available offerings, while ISG advisors use the information to recommend providers to the firm's buy-side clients.

Enterprises are investing to operationalize GenAI usage while establishing ROI and use cases across diverse intelligent automation technology stacks. Data generation and capitalization, hybrid infrastructure observability, knowledge curation and enterprise process optimization are crucial facets for providers to build a sustainable automation offerings portfolio.

"As intelligent automation evolves, service providers are gearing up by offering comprehensive automation strategies and integration services that will help enterprises scale AI across their organization," said Namratha Dharshan, chief business leader, ISG Research. "Companies are looking for AI-powered solutions embedded with GenAI capabilities, fueled by highly tuned large language models, to achieve greater agility, resiliency and customer centricity."

Hyperscalers and independent software vendors are building strategic relationships with global system integrators (GSIs) and other service providers to leverage domain data and process knowledge to automate and modernize industry processes. The high demand for talent has prompted GSIs to invest in talent transformation programs to upskill their workforces.

Enterprises also see governance, risk and compliance (GRC) and environmental and social attributes as core considerations for developing responsible automation practices. Service providers, for their part, are helping enterprises navigate data privacy challenges and implement safeguards to ensure ethical and reliable AI deployment.

For the study, ISG has distributed surveys to nearly 60 providers of intelligent automation services. Working in collaboration with ISG's global advisors, the research team will produce three quadrants representing the automation services the typical enterprise is buying, based on ISG's experience working with its clients. The three quadrants to be covered are:

• Intelligent Enterprise Automation , evaluating providers and GSIs that design, develop and deliver solutions across industry verticals and internal corporate functions. These solutions supplement basic automation with advanced analytics and AI capabilities, such as computer vision, machine learning or deep learning, and natural language processing (NLP). Providers offer associated services, such as consulting, implementation and ongoing support.

• Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps) , analyzing IT service providers and GSIs that offer proprietary AIOps solutions, platforms and frameworks that enable enterprises to monitor distributed IT infrastructure, understand IT behavior under dynamic conditions and orchestrate and optimize performance. AIOps leverages AI and ML tools, predictive analytics, and knowledge automation using GenAI to dynamically manage enterprises' multicloud and hybrid cloud workloads.

• Next-Gen Automation , assessing service providers' approaches to building next-gen, sustainable automation roadmaps, covering innovation, organizational adoption, talent strategy and bot development standards using the latest technologies and frameworks, including low-code/no-code (LCNC) development. Providers must demonstrate the ability to build automation solutions and have platform certifications, functional knowledge, industry expertise and a clear strategy for resource training.

Geographically focused reports from the study will cover the global intelligent automation market and examine products and platforms available in the U.S. and Europe. A list of identified providers and vendors and further details on the study are available in this digital brochure .

ISG analysts Ashwin Gaidhani (U.S.) and Mark Purdy (Europe) will serve as authors of the reports. Providers not listed in either brochure can contact ISG and ask to be included in the studies.
