A market intelligence firm has named Cognizant a leader in its report. The report assesses nine major Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) strategic consulting vendors. Positioning in the report reflects a vendor's current capabilities, services, and alignment to customer needs. The report analyzes how well a vendor builds and delivers capabilities that enable it to execute its chosen strategy in the market as well as how a vendor’s future strategy aligns with what customers will require in three to five years. Placement in the report is based on detailed surveys and interviews with vendors, publicly available information, and end-user experiences.

Positioned in the Leader’s Category, Cognizant is differentiated by strong expertise in the healthcare and consumer products industries with a rapidly growing practice in discrete manufacturing, including automotive and high tech.  The report notes that as companies increasingly leverage cloud, mobile, big data analytics, and IoT technologies, Cognizant’s focus on platform technology enablement increases the time, quality, and delivery of new products and services. The report states that “historically strong in consumer goods, life sciences, and oil and gas, Cognizant has ramped up its focus and capabilities in growth segments such as automotive, machinery, and high tech — really any industry that has a need for design, innovation, analytics, and decision support for connected products.”
