We help cautious adopters make the transition. We help laggards see the light.Where We See The Challenge In today’s business environment, the rate of change is not only constant, but also rapidly escalating. New business models by upstarts disrupt competitors with increasing frequency in all industries and markets. In just 10 years, even 5 years, or dare say 24 months, many established companies have been left vulnerable, beaten down, and toppled by new upstarts. How come? Business leaders have been too slow to react to their customers and the changes happening in the societal, technological, environmental, economic, and political fronts. In business models, products are now excuses to sell services. Product innovation cycles have shortened from years to months to weeks. On the work front, five generations in the workforce disagree on where to work, how to work, when to work, and why to work. Add the current trend of consumerization of IT to the pace of change and business leaders must strategically determine which new technologies should be considered.How Legacy Research Firms Fail Their Clients Unfortunately, the legacy research analyst firms and advisory firms continue to fail their clients when faced with these new challenges. Why? Their myopic focus on an IT centric point of view ignores the realities of the market. In fact, Constellation estimates that the average IT budget is down 5% year over year and at best up 2% among the most innovative companies. However, tech spending is up on average 18 to 22% at the most innovative firms. What’s happened? The buying power has shifted and business leaders increasingly take control of how they are applying technologies to their business while whittling down the corporate IT budget for operational efficiencies. Our Research Provides Insights Into The Tough Business Problems You Face TodayThe result - Constellation serves as a coach and advisor to senior business leaders working on tough business problems. We translate new business models to technology requirements and bridge the gap between business and IT. Our business research themes include:
