NEW YORK, March 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Deloitte announced today that Gartner has named it a global leader, positioned highest in execution, in Business Analytics Services in their February 2017 report entitled, Magic Quadrant for Business Analytics Services, Worldwide. The evaluation is based on completeness of vision and ability to execute.

"This is the second consecutive year that Gartner positioned Deloitte highest in execution for our business analytics services," said Paul Roma, principal and chief analytics officer, Deloitte Consulting, LLP. "We believe this recognition serves as further proof that our scope of services that spans science-driven advanced analytics assets, ecosystem relationships with best of breed technology providers, and our deep industry expertise is driving smarter insights and stronger outcomes for our clients."

Gartner defines leaders as providing "offerings that meet demand in analytical services, as well as demonstrate the vision necessary to sustain their position as requirements for asset-based consulting evolve in the market. Leaders innovate products, services and pricing, take chances and typically respond to a wide market audience by supporting broad market requirements, in an attempt to help shape the market. This includes delivering business-outcome-focused BA solutions across all levels of the BA framework. However, Leaders may fail to meet the specific needs of more-specialized segments (for example, technology, application, geographic and process segments)."

According to Gartner, "Digitalization in most enterprises is maturing, and it becomes much more likely that these enterprises will become part of a digital ecosystem where competitors, customers, regulators, other stakeholders and other enterprises exchange information and interact electronically in converged physical and virtual scenarios. As a result, analytics will become even more crucial to the digital ecosystem surge, as it underpins the mediation and value exchange occurring in digital ecosystems."

Business Analytics Services are defined by Gartner as "consulting, implementation and management services for decision, analytics and information capabilities, executed on a technology platform supporting an organization's fact-based decision making. Solutions contain information analysis and information management (IM) competencies with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) and proprietary assets. Information analysis solutions focus on use cases and outcomes, and IM solutions focus on information infrastructure and governance."
