Report says agile development is central to delivery strategy

ISG’s Provider Lens™ ADM Quadrant Report commends how DXC is “investing in next-generation digital services, with Agile development as a central delivery strategy,” also noting that “DXC is expanding its integrated offerings and advisory services for Agile development and DevOps.”
In their latest Provider Lens™ report ISG, a leading global technology research and advisory firm, has once again named DXC technology as a leader in Next-gen Application Development and Maintenance (ADM) Services - Agile Development.
The global next-gen ADM market is following two different growth trajectories for the application development and application maintenance segments. Next-gen application development has branched out into areas such as analytics, IoT, cloud native architectures, SaaS-based offerings, security, customer experience (CX) and user experience (UX), mobile apps and others. Most next-gen development activities are focusing on solving business problems, improving profits or revenue, or enhancing brand value, rather than acting as a support mechanism for running IT operations. Concurrently, next-gen maintenance activities are focusing on finding different avenues to achieve cost savings by using technologies like intelligent automation. Such efforts can eventually reduce the cost of maintenance activities by 20 to 30 percent, thereby allowing enterprises to reinvest in development activities.
Agile development focuses on an incremental and iterative approach to application development. Because agile encompasses frequent and early releases of the working software, it is being viewed by enterprise as a medium for attaining enterprise agility. This quadrant assesses each provider’s capabilities to deliver tangible results through use of various agile methodologies. It also looks at the focus a provider has towards the use of agile development with respect to its overall application development practice.
DXC Technology is pleased to have once again been named a leader in the Agile Development quadrant of the report.
