The report evaluated 24 cloud professional services providers on
key measures of success across two primary categories: capabilities

cloud professional services over the last two years, citing its
integrated capabilities to create a broader portfolio of IT and
connectivity services, wider industry-focused consulting, and more
global scale.
IDC recognized NTT DATA for its broad range of digital offerings
includes business consulting, data & intelligence, customer
experience & design, network and application services,
cybersecurity, and cloud and IT infrastructure. The report noted
the evolution of NTT DATA’s cloud professional services as a
particular strength, as it expanded not only the breadth of its

strengths include sales and distribution, as well as its customer
retention strategies.
"A strength of NTT DATA is the evolution of its cloud

The IDC MarketScape cited cloud clients should consider choosing
NTT DATA when seeking “a service provider whose focus is on trust

regional needs, its hybrid culture, and differentiation, is based
on its Japanese roots. It also highlighted that NTT DATA’s focus on
sustainability and social responsibility is deeply embedded in its
corporate DNA, going back to its founding in 1988.
“At NTT DATA, we believe a seamless cloud journey starts with
flexibility. Our NTT DATA unified Cloud Adoption Framework (NuCAF)
integrates with all major hyperscalers, ensuring a smooth migration
and transformation for our clients,” said Hidehiko Tanaka, Head of
Technology and Innovation General Headquarters of NTT DATA. “We're
doubling down on this commitment by making strategic acquisitions
and investments in cutting-edge technologies like generative AI,
All-Photonics Network, and smart robotics, alongside key
partnerships to propel our clients forward in a sustainable and
