Intelligent Automation Brings Enhanced Efficiency to European Enterprises, ISG Study Finds
Information Services Group (ISG) has released a new report highlighting the growing impact of generative AI (GenAI) and intelligent automation in European enterprises. The study reveals that GenAI and agentic process automation are driving demand for responsible AI frameworks, particularly in automotive, healthcare, finance, and retail sectors.
Organizations are moving towards comprehensive automation solutions, with service providers integrating GenAI capabilities into automation use cases. However, European enterprises are taking a more cautious approach compared to North America due to strict regulations like the EU AI Act and GDPR. The emergence of agentic AI is enabling advanced applications in customer service, employee onboarding, and supply chain management.
The report evaluates 39 providers across 3 quadrants, with Accenture, Capgemini, Tietoevry Tech Services, T-Systems, and Wipro named as Leaders in three quadrants. Persistent Systems was recognized as the global ISG CX Star Performer for 2024.
Information Services Group (ISG) ha pubblicato un nuovo rapporto che evidenzia l'impatto crescente dell'IA generativa (GenAI) e dell'automazione intelligente nelle imprese europee. Lo studio rivela che GenAI e l'automazione dei processi agentici stanno aumentando la domanda di framework di IA responsabile, in particolare nei settori automobilistico, sanitario, finanziario e al dettaglio.
Le organizzazioni stanno passando a soluzioni di automazione complete, con i fornitori di servizi che integrano le capacità di GenAI nei casi d'uso dell'automazione. Tuttavia, le imprese europee stanno adottando un approccio più cauto rispetto al Nord America a causa di normative rigorose come l'AI Act dell'UE e il GDPR. L'emergere dell'IA agentica sta abilitando applicazioni avanzate nel servizio clienti, nell'inserimento dei dipendenti e nella gestione della catena di approvvigionamento.
Il rapporto valuta 39 fornitori in 3 quadranti, con Accenture, Capgemini, Tietoevry Tech Services, T-Systems e Wipro identificati come Leader in tre quadranti. Persistent Systems è stata riconosciuta come la Star Performer globale di ISG CX per il 2024.
Information Services Group (ISG) ha publicado un nuevo informe que destaca el creciente impacto de la IA generativa (GenAI) y la automatización inteligente en las empresas europeas. El estudio revela que GenAI y la automatización de procesos agentivos están impulsando la demanda de marcos de IA responsables, especialmente en los sectores automotriz, salud, finanzas y comercio minorista.
Las organizaciones están avanzando hacia soluciones de automatización integrales, con proveedores de servicios que integran capacidades de GenAI en los casos de uso de automatización. Sin embargo, las empresas europeas están adoptando un enfoque más cauteloso en comparación con América del Norte debido a regulaciones estrictas como la Ley de IA de la UE y el GDPR. La aparición de la IA agentiva está permitiendo aplicaciones avanzadas en servicio al cliente, incorporación de empleados y gestión de la cadena de suministro.
El informe evalúa a 39 proveedores en 3 cuadrantes, con Accenture, Capgemini, Tietoevry Tech Services, T-Systems y Wipro nombrados como Líderes en tres cuadrantes. Persistent Systems fue reconocida como la Star Performer global de ISG CX para 2024.
정보 서비스 그룹 (ISG)는 유럽 기업에서 생성적 AI (GenAI)와 지능형 자동화의 증가하는 영향을 강조하는 새로운 보고서를 발표했습니다. 이 연구는 GenAI 및 에이전틱 프로세스 자동화가 자동차, 의료, 금융 및 소매 분야에서 책임 있는 AI 프레임워크에 대한 수요를 주도하고 있음을 보여줍니다.
조직은 서비스 제공업체가 자동화 사용 사례에 GenAI 기능을 통합하면서 포괄적인 자동화 솔루션으로 나아가고 있습니다. 그러나 유럽 기업들은 EU AI 법과 GDPR과 같은 엄격한 규제 때문에 북미에 비해 더 신중한 접근을 취하고 있습니다. 에이전틱 AI의 출현은 고객 서비스, 직원 온보딩 및 공급망 관리에서 고급 애플리케이션을 가능하게 하고 있습니다.
이 보고서는 3개 구역에서 39개의 제공자를 평가하며, Accenture, Capgemini, Tietoevry Tech Services, T-Systems 및 Wipro가 세 개 구역에서 리더로 선정되었습니다. Persistent Systems는 2024년 ISG CX 스타 퍼포머로 인정받았습니다.
Information Services Group (ISG) a publié un nouveau rapport mettant en avant l'impact croissant de l'IA générative (GenAI) et de l'automatisation intelligente dans les entreprises européennes. L'étude révèle que GenAI et l'automatisation des processus agentiques alimentent la demande de cadres d'IA responsables, en particulier dans les secteurs de l'automobile, de la santé, de la finance et du commerce de détail.
Les organisations s'orientent vers des solutions d'automatisation complètes, les fournisseurs de services intégrant les capacités de GenAI dans des cas d'utilisation automatisés. Cependant, les entreprises européennes adoptent une approche plus prudente par rapport à l'Amérique du Nord en raison de réglementations strictes telles que la loi sur l'IA de l'UE et le RGPD. L'émergence de l'IA agentique permet des applications avancées dans le service client, l'intégration des employés et la gestion de la chaîne d'approvisionnement.
Le rapport évalue 39 fournisseurs à travers 3 quadrants, avec Accenture, Capgemini, Tietoevry Tech Services, T-Systems et Wipro désignés comme Leaders dans trois quadrants. Persistent Systems a été reconnue comme la Star Performer mondiale ISG CX pour 2024.
Information Services Group (ISG) hat einen neuen Bericht veröffentlicht, der die wachsende Bedeutung von generativer KI (GenAI) und intelligenter Automatisierung in europäischen Unternehmen hervorhebt. Die Studie zeigt, dass GenAI und agentische Prozessautomatisierung die Nachfrage nach verantwortungsvollen KI-Rahmenwerken antreiben, insbesondere in den Bereichen Automobil, Gesundheitswesen, Finanzen und Einzelhandel.
Organisationen bewegen sich in Richtung umfassender Automatisierungslösungen, wobei Dienstleister GenAI-Funktionen in Anwendungsfälle der Automatisierung integrieren. Europäische Unternehmen gehen jedoch aufgrund strenger Vorschriften wie dem EU AI Act und der DSGVO vorsichtiger vor als in Nordamerika. Das Aufkommen von agentischer KI ermöglicht fortschrittliche Anwendungen im Kundenservice, für die Einarbeitung von Mitarbeitern und im Lieferkettenmanagement.
Der Bericht bewertet 39 Anbieter in 3 Quadranten, wobei Accenture, Capgemini, Tietoevry Tech Services, T-Systems und Wipro als Leader in drei Quadranten bezeichnet werden. Persistent Systems wurde als globaler ISG CX Star Performer für 2024 ausgezeichnet.

Insights
The latest ISG Provider Lens™ report reveals significant market dynamics that position ISG (III) favorably in the rapidly evolving intelligent automation landscape. The company's strategic focus on GenAI consulting and implementation services aligns perfectly with the identified market trends, particularly in Europe where regulatory compliance is paramount.
Several key factors make this development particularly noteworthy for investors:
- The shift from fragmented to comprehensive automation solutions represents a higher-value consulting opportunity for ISG, potentially driving larger contract values and recurring revenue streams.
- Europe's stringent regulatory environment (EU AI Act, GDPR) creates a complex landscape that benefits established advisory firms like ISG, as enterprises require expert guidance for compliance-aware implementation.
- The emergence of industry-specific solutions in key sectors (automotive, healthcare, finance, retail) suggests expanding market opportunities and potential for specialized service offerings.
- ISG's positioning as both a research firm and advisory service provider creates a unique competitive advantage, as they can leverage market insights to guide implementation strategies.
However, investors should consider certain market dynamics:
- The identified skills shortage could impact service delivery capabilities and project scalability
- Europe's more conservative approach to GenAI adoption might result in longer sales cycles compared to North American markets
- The competitive landscape remains intense, with 39 providers evaluated in the report, including major global players
The report's findings suggest a robust market opportunity, particularly as enterprises seek guidance in navigating complex automation implementations while maintaining regulatory compliance. ISG's dual role as both market analyst and service provider positions them uniquely to capitalize on this trend.
