22Note: Years refer to calendar year

A significant demand-supply mismatch in the US for key skills driving outsourcing

Integration of software to be the next driver of growth across verticals

Reduction in innovation cycles with companies leveraging complex technology architecture

▪ 18–19% of business leaders in the developed world, across verticals, expect a large-scale mismatch in demand and supply of talent in R&D and product/services design, over the next three years

▪ While US, Western Europe and Japan account for ~60% of the global R&D budget, only ~20% of the engineers graduate from these geographies

▪ Across businesses, market leaders are increasing the proportion of spend towards software development (contribution from software R&D to increase from ~27% (2017) to 37% (2020))

▪ The outsourced software PES addressable market is expected to grow at a CAGR of ~13% against the overall outsourced PES addressable market growing at ~5% between 2016 and 2021

▪ Over the last decade, the advent of multiple disruptive technologies like AI/ML, Automation, IoT, Cloud, renders all technology created before 2010 to be “legacy”

▪ Ability to integrate and connect multiple technology stacks is central to modern enterprise IT systems

Industry 4.0 to drive digital product development for industrial IoT

▪ Driven by adaption of smart automation across industries, industrial IoT market is expected to increase from $161Bn in 2018 to $934Bn in 2025 at a CAGR of 29%

▪ This is expected to drive demand growth for development of industrial IoT platforms as well as the analytics stack on top of this over the next five years

Data driven customer centric organizations gaining dominance in the digital age

▪ Data creation has grown at a CAGR of >42% since 2015, reaching ~30ZB in 2019. This combined with advances in AI/ML technologies, make it a strategic imperative for new enterprise applications to be intelligent

▪ The need to translate brand promise to customer experience across channels has led to large services opportunity (ongoing convergence between marketing and technology)

RIGHT-SHORING: A CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTOR FOR COMPLEX PROJECTS6

These critical success factors are rapidly becoming

must-haves – while execution remains key, these

are relatively easier to achieve

Consultative capabilities are difficult to develop /

acquire, and even more difficult to integrate and

scale. This is a key differentiator that can help

create significant value

Accelerators & pre-packaged tools are increasingly

becoming a must-have and can create significant

value enabling both non-linear growth and higher

gross margins. That said, a very small percentage

of services companies have been successful in

developing revenue-generating products. Pursuing

the product route has typically resulted in a

sideways or downward financial trajectory for

services firms

New Market Access

▪ Technology services vendors have been acquiring scale in PES services (e.g. DXC-Luxoft, Capgemini-

Altran, Cognizant-Softvision)

▪ PES vendors are doing tuck-ins to maintain competitive edge along the critical success factors (this is

bulk of the volume as shown in the next slide)

▪ Private equity firms are investing in $100m+ revenue platforms (e.g. Bain-Brillio, Warburg Pincus-

Indecomm) that can enable them to execute on a buy and build strategy
