Description

This IDC Market Perspective provides IDC's views, learnings, perspectives, and advice from NTT DATA's Analyst Forum held February 5–6, 2026, in Frisco, Texas. It summarizes several keynote and presentation sessions where IDC heard from multiple speakers. The event started with keynotes from CEO Abhijit Dubey, who provided an overview session on NTT DATA and its AI strategy, and was complemented with a series of in-depth sessions led by NTT DATA executives and client representatives."AI is advancing fast and, in many cases, faster than enterprises can adapt. As enterprises grapple with the pace of technology change, IDC sees opportunities for service providers to help organizations transform and adopt AI. While opportunities will likely emerge and potential for new services growth is high, IDC sees disruption affecting how service providers will deliver as well as how they'll need to adapt. Providers will not only need to devise ways to harness and operationalize AI to enhance productivity but also do so without sacrificing growth at the expense of traditional services," explains Pete Marston, senior research director, Worldwide Intelligent Application Services at IDC.
