NTT DATA is a Leader in worldwide network consulting services

The AI execution era demands a new enterprise network

NTT DATA has been recognized as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Network Consulting Services 2026 Vendor Assessment, which evaluates providers on their current capabilities and future strategies for delivering network consulting services.

AI is transforming how enterprises operate and is placing unprecedented demands on the network. Enterprise networks must support continuous AI workloads across cloud, edge and on-premises environments while maintaining security, resilience, cost efficiency, AI-workload readiness and sustainability.

As organizations prepare for the AI execution era, they are increasingly turning to network consulting partners for independent assessments, architecture design and modernization roadmaps. Whether it's campus, branch, WAN or data center, the mission is the same: networks that are secure by design, resilient by default, and ready to scale AI without compromise. Find out why IDC MarketScape recognizes NTT DATA as a Leader — and what that means for you.
