Three things to know about the sector
1. (Cautious) optimism is returning

After two years of budget freezes, momentum is returning to the market. Most firms expect growth to speed up, but political and macro headwinds mean optimism is cautious and volatility remains.

2. Differentiation is being redefined

As demand returns, firms are moving beyond generic delivery towards vertical expertise and outcome-based propositions. The winners are combining domain depth with agile delivery, and can prove ROI.

3. AI is moving from buzz to business

We’ve entered the era of full deployment. Progress on AI is variable, but those out in front have moved beyond the pilot stage and are already using AI to boost productivity and profitability.

In summary

Technology consulting & services is emerging from uncertainty, evolving fast and rapidly embedding AI. That means renewed confidence for investors, and opportunities for operators to capture returning demand.
