Coforge: Engineering the AI-Native Future — Domain-Led Delivery for the Agentic Era

Mukesh Dialani — Tue, 06 Oct 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Vendor Profile analyzes Coforge's current software engineering capabilities, its AI-native delivery vision, and its three-stage road map for the future of AI-led software engineering services. It examines the company's service lines that anchor today's revenue. These include software product engineering, legacy modernization, modern AMS, integration and API gateways, and SRE/observability — and how each will be reshaped by Coforge's Nuuron, AI Operating System, AI Mod Squad construct, and the broader shift in how SDLC, talent, and related economics will impact these services over the next two to three years.

The Coforge narrative, data, figures, and case study outcomes in this document are supplied by Coforge and reflect the company's own reporting. IDC has not independently validated these inputs.

IDC Survey: AI-Enabled Water Management Trends, 2026

Bjoern Stengel — Tue, 06 Oct 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Survey discusses how water management is now a top ESG-AI priority for 22.5% of organizations, up from 18.9% in 2024 — a 19% relative increase, although growth is far from evenly spread. IDC Survey: AI-Enabled Water Management Trends, 2026, based on IDC’s 2026 AI and Sustainability Survey (n = 1,570; weighted) and IDC’s 2024 AI and Sustainability Survey (n = 1,390), finds that process manufacturing (43.7%), financial and investment services (40.4%), and accommodation and restaurants (34.6%) lead AI-for-sustainability investment in water management, while traditionally water-intensive industries — utilities and oil and gas — rank near the bottom of the 24 industries profiled.

Predictive AI is the leading modality across five of the six industry case studies detailed in the document, and AI investment concentrates upstream, in environmentally sustainable manufacturing and sourcing, rather than at the point of consumption. The document also profiles six industries in depth, examines buyer psychology and decision-maker ownership by sector, and provides vendor-selection guidance for technology providers targeting water-focused AI-for-sustainability buyers.

This document is an essential read for sustainability, ESG, and AI product strategy leaders assessing where water-management AI demand concentrates in 2026.

IDC Survey: Agentic Enterprise Transformation Professional Services. Part 1: The State of Agentic Enterprise Transformation

Jennifer Thomson, Eren Eser — Tue, 06 Oct 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Survey presentation examines how organizations worldwide are planning, investing, and scaling agentic enterprise transformation, from where they sit on the maturity journey and which capabilities they are building first, to how much they are budgeting and how governance and accountability are being structured.

This presentation is based on IDC's 2026 Agentic Enterprise Transformation Professional Services Survey, July 2026, which focuses on agentic enterprise transformation priorities, strategies, and investment for 2026 and 2027. Findings are drawn from a multicountry data set spanning IT, AI operations, data, and line-of-business functions across North America, EMEA, and Asia/Pacific, covering organizations with 250 or more employees, all at the director level or above, and already evaluating, piloting, or running AI agents in production.

These findings can be used to understand how organizations are approaching agentic enterprise transformation. The survey examined where organizations sit on the transformation journey and which foundational capabilities they are building first, along with the transformation goals and business domains they will prioritize over the next 12 months. It also captured planned professional services spend across 2026 and 2027 and where budget authority sits, as well as the outcomes organizations are realizing and the barriers slowing pilot-to-production and post-deployment optimization.

This is Part 1 of a three-part series: Part 1 focuses on the state of agentic enterprise transformation, Part 2 examines the professional services opportunity, and Part 3 examines provider selection criteria and competitive dynamics.

From Systems of Engagement to Systems of Execution: The Structural Reinvention of the Digital Workplace and Services Around It

Pushkaraksh Shanbhag — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Perspective analyzes the structural reinvention of DWS, drawing on the key learnings and insights from IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Digital Workplace Services 2026 Vendor Assessment (IDC #US54119026, September 2026). It argues that leading providers of workplace services are redefining their vision of the digital workplace: from a system that connects employees and enables them with the necessary tools for work to an intelligent, connected system that executes work with managed autonomy. This report tracks five connected shifts: supervised agentic autonomy, the knowledge layer as the new advantage, the end of the AI premium and the rise of outcome economics, experience accountability with financial consequences, and the dissolving boundary of the workplace. The report identifies three provider maturity tiers, explores the gap between ambitions and reality, and recommends that buyers treat execution depth, commercial alignment, and experience accountability as key procurement criteria.

"The modern digital workplace is shifting from enabling the enterprise workforce to executing critical business operations, as agentic AI matures and adoption scales. This shift gives buyers a concrete opportunity to frame their procurement of services for the digital workplace around specific requirements for agentic capability, experience accountability, and outcome economics," says Pushkaraksh Shanbhag, senior research director on worldwide services research, IDC.
