Dell Technologies and Draper: Helping IT help business
“Focusing on business outcomes” has become a very shopworn phrase for industry pundits. However, nothing crystalizes the power and importance of the concept more than detailed discussions with IT departments of flagship enterprises followed by tours of the business units they support. Seeing both affords insight into how these IT and line-of-business (LOB) entities view […]
Hustlers, hackers and heroes: EY’s technology consultants of a transformative age

SAP Digital Business Services enables customers to create their own intelligent enterprise

SAP’s Digital Business Services (DBS) Analyst Day provided the answer: DBS is the enabler to the intelligent enterprise, which is a system of SAP and non-SAP applications, underpinned by a digital platform […]
Complexity is the price of admission for hybrid, multicloud environments
Cloud started as a simple alternative to the stifling complexity pervasive in traditional IT deployments. It was quick and easy to deploy and simple to manage and track.

Engagement Manager and Senior Analyst Angela Lambert Belanger: Cloud repatriation is not real in the sense of being a major, market-shifting trend worthy of its own buzzword. I will not deny the existence of one-off customers making a monumental shift away from public cloud. TBR sees anecdotal evidence of companies leaving public cloud environments, but we don’t see a wholesale move to strictly on-premises environments. The numbers tell it all: TBR estimates the PaaS and IaaS market grew 16% overall in the second quarter, with the big three juggernauts (AWS, Microsoft, Google) growing 58% on average within the segment, accounting for about $10 billion of the quarterly segment revenue. If anything, the public cloud market is moving toward an oligopoly as it consolidates. But it’s not shrinking. The market growth is far outpacing the loss of any customers that may be defecting. https://bit.ly/2nJML92

Analyst Joey Cresta: Perspecta aims to capitalize on favorable conditions in the government sector by combining the commercial IT expertise of DXC Technology’s U.S. Public Sector business with the mission capabilities of Vencore and KeyPoint Government Solutions. The new company officially became whole in June, with 2Q18 financial results representing its first quarter as a new entity. Results were typical of large-scale M&A, as Perspecta’s operating margin of 2.5% on a pro forma basis reflects the costs associated with the disruptive transition. Perspecta did demonstrate slight year-to-year growth with 1.9% pro forma expansion in the quarter, a promising start for the fledgling company. Success will depend on a smooth integration, but Perspecta has compelling value to offer by scaling up emerging capabilities in analytics, cyber and networking across the company’s engagements with government buyers seeking innovation.

Senior Analyst Boz Hristov: While buyers currently identify future outsourcing opportunities in lower-priority areas such as search engine optimization (SEO), we expect skill shortages in data integration and data preparation services will also benefit services vendors. Even with more robust integration software on the market, organizations still need human experts who understand the nuances of their enterprise data environment to map data between systems. https://lnkd.in/d8DHm4F

Communication service providers (CSPs) are challenged to transform into digital service providers (DSPs) to remain relevant and be successful in the digital era. This transformation is a monumental undertaking and is a fundamental change in not only the business model, but also the operational and technological aspects of CSPs. https://bit.ly/2MDUHmX

Analyst Kevin Collupy: Transformation efforts will continue through 2018 as DXC executes aggressive cost-cutting initiatives, reduces headcount, and strategically reinvests savings into service delivery around in-demand digital technologies, automation, industry-led solutions and centers of excellence. Such self-disruption puts DXC on a positive trajectory heading into 2H18.
