A Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for 4G and 5G Private Mobile Network Services

NTT DATA is named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant™ for 4G and 5G Private Mobile Network Services. Gartner evaluated companies based on their Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute in the rapidly evolving private mobile network market. We believe we were recognized for our wide geographical presence, industry-led expertise, end-to-end private 4G and 5G services, AI-driven network operations and ability to support enterprise deployments across hybrid, public and private network environments.

Since introducing the world’s first enterprise private 5G platform in 2021, NTT DATA has been a leader in the private networks market. Our end-to-end Private 5G solutions for business-critical enterprise environments incorporate network design, deployment and fully managed operations, with each implementation tailored to specific industry use cases.

Enterprises are increasingly relying on private 5G network as the foundation for modernizing complex, data-intensive operations where reliable, high-performance networks are critical. We see this recognition as a reflection of our ability to deliver secure, globally consistent private 5G networks at scale.

By embedding edge AI, IoT and AI-driven network operations into our platform, we’re helping clients modernize their operations, improve resilience and enable the next wave of physical AI use cases across industries.

According to Gartner, "Leaders primarily sell and deliver PMN services directly, investing in a PMN services future that includes a continuum of value from infrastructure to services; orchestration and management platforms; and related analytics. They perform skillfully and often exceed expectations. Leaders have a clear vision of the market’s direction and develop competencies to maintain their leadership. Leaders engage customers and provide value across several geographies. They shape the market, rather than follow it, and they often set the benchmark for market growth.
Leaders have the size and scale (for example, operations, sales and marketing, and formal bid and product management) to pursue panregional and multinational opportunities for PMN service across a number of industry verticals. They have established a robust and diverse ecosystem of technology alliances and service delivery partnerships, spanning PMN and services for network, IT, OT and IoT to meet broad market requirements. Leaders typically have a significant number of commercial references for the PMN services market. They also have momentum in this area, as exemplified by new contract wins. They have a broad portfolio and, even where they need partners, they are often enterprises’ preferred primary vendors. They appear frequently in enterprise PMN service procurement and trials. These are high-viability technology providers. They are well-positioned with their current service portfolios and are likely to continue delivering leading services. Leaders do not necessarily offer the best solution for every customer requirement, nor do they necessarily address all geographies, and their products may not be “best-of-breed” in every area. Overall, Leaders provide solutions that offer relatively low risk and can achieve and sustain high-quality PMN service deployments."
