GET FREE SAMPLEEcosystem of the global IS Operational Consultancy category is intertwined with the larger parent market of Consultancy. Our category definition describes that overall Consultancy market includes all spend related to advisory and consulting services with respect to specific aspects or functions of the client with a stated objective and end result.
Consultancy market around the world is undergoing rapid transitions that have a massive potential to influence the way companies strategize for IS Operational Consultancy procurement and the cost they have to incur. Traditionally, clients were charged on per diem basis for IS Operational Consultancy. However, rising pressure from clients to decrease pricing has resulted into an alternative pricing model of value-oriented billing where supplier's remuneration is linked to the performance or outcome of the project. The market is rapidly showing signs of a great divide - at one extreme is a low-cost market with almost commoditized services and at the other end is the market for high cost specialized services. IS Operational Consultancy vendors are adopting starkly different business models and cost structures in an effort to address both the markets. There are only a handful of \"Tier 1\" vendors in the IS Operational Consultancy market and they have traditionally enjoyed a premium in their pricing. However, Tier 2 suppliers are giving them a tough competition now as they can provide similar services at a lower cost. Many tier 2 suppliers achieve this parity by finding right talent at a relatively lower cost and maintaining lean operations without any frills.
