IDC Tracker

As the technology world becomes more "software embedded" with IT integrated with operational technology (OT), digital engineering and operational technology services (DEOTS) is a fast-growing market. Enterprise buyers increasingly look to outsourcing to speed up product design and development and lower R&D costs. Manufacturers lean on external providers to help automate their factories and supply chains with new technologies such as IoT and 5G. Services providers are rising to the occasion to meet this demand. Traditional services providers and pure-play product engineering services firms alike are making big plays in this market and branching out to cross over from IT to OT and vice versa.

Complementing IDC Services' research of product engineering and operational technology services (PEOTS), IDC's Worldwide Semiannual Services Tracker: Digital Engineering and Operational Technology Services tracks the product engineering services portion of the PEOTS market, including size, growth, and vendor share as well as regional breakdowns.
