 Upcoming ISG Provider Lens™ study evaluates how services and solution providers can help chemical producers thrive amid global value chain disruption

STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm, has launched a research study examining providers of services and solutions that help chemical companies navigate global supply and demand issues.

The results of this first-time study will be published in two comprehensive ISG Provider Lens™ reports, titled Chemical Industry Services and Solutions, scheduled to be released in May 2024. The market-specific reports will cover services and solutions for digital information technology/operational technology (IT/OT) services, supply chain and logistics and sustainability and innovation.

Enterprise buyers will be able to use information from the reports to evaluate their current vendor relationships, potential new engagements and available offerings, while ISG advisors use the information to recommend providers to the firm’s buy-side clients.

The global chemical industry is facing a challenging year with geopolitical tensions, commodity price fluctuations and supply and demand issues plaguing the value chain. The industry is also grappling with energy transition, carbon reduction, adoption of new technologies and changes pertaining to key end-customer industries, such as the automotive industry’s shift to electric vehicles (EVs).

“New technologies around cloud, analytics and AI are transforming the chemical industry, and companies in the sector are leveraging services and solutions providers to navigate change successfully,” said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “Emerging technologies such as blockchain, quantum computing and high-performance computing are also impacting industry digitization and providing opportunities for technology partners.”

ISG has distributed surveys to more than 50 chemical industry services and solutions providers. Working in collaboration with ISG’s global advisors, the research team will produce three quadrants representing the services and solutions the typical company in the chemical industry is buying, based on ISG’s experience working with its clients. The three quadrants are:

• Digital IT/OT Services, evaluating providers that deliver technology and operations management services that enable chemical industry companies to improve efficiency and productivity in daily operations and enhance decision-making.

• Supply Chain and Logistics, covering solutions that help companies manage functions such as procurement, warehousing, inventory, fulfillment, transportation and logistics. These solutions help clients achieve resilient, adaptive, connected, data-driven, sustainable supply chains and logistics to mitigate global disruptions and instability.

• Sustainability and Innovation, evaluating providers that help chemical industry players develop and manage their sustainability strategy and value chain, net-zero transitions, reporting and analytics, worker safety, R&D and lab and data management.

Geographically focused reports from the study will examine chemical industry services and solutions available in North America and Europe. ISG analysts Swadhin Pradhan (North America) and Mohd Aves Malik (Europe) will serve as authors of the reports.

A list of identified providers and vendors and further details on each study are available in this digital brochure. Companies not listed as procurement providers can contact ISG and ask to be included in the study.
