LONDON | MUMBAI, July 5, 2019: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), (BSE: 532540, NSE: TCS) a leading global IT services, consulting and business solutions organization, has been recognized as a Leader in the NelsonHall NEAT for IoT in Business Transformation in the Retail and Travel Transportation and Logistics industries.[1]
In the Retail sector, TCS was placed highly on both axes – ability to deliver immediate benefits and ability to meet future client requirements. Cited as strengths were TCS’ Digital Twin capabilities that are evolving swiftly at a high level of component resolution, the TCS Connected Universe Platform, which offers robust middleware capabilities, and its expanding library of prebuilt IoT connectors and solution accelerators. The report also highlights the company’s evolving partnership ecosystem with clear partner role definition.
“In a Business 4.0™ world, technology holds the key to unlock the latent value within an enterprise’s value stream nodes, so CEOs are beginning to leverage IoT to transform their business models,” said Regu Ayyaswamy, Global Head, IoT & Engineering Services, TCS. “Our Leadership positioning is a recognition of our ability to deliver immediate benefits and the investments we have made to help us meet our customers’ future requirements.”
TCS’ Business 4.0 framework and Machine First™ Delivery Model (MFDM™) are guiding customers further along their digital transformation roadmaps and helping drive superior business outcomes. TCS has been partnering customers in business transformation and value creation initiatives, leveraging its contextual knowledge of the customer’s business and deep expertise in IoT and other digital technologies. A unique consulting-led Value Discovery Approach is used to identify the right business use cases to maximize value and chart a roadmap for the enterprise.
TCS offers a comprehensive portfolio of IoT-related intellectual property and services spanning strategic planning, systems design, implementation, technical and business integration services, and post deployment support and maintenance. TCS’ IoT solutions for retailers intelligently connect customers, the supply chain, store operations and assets, to transform business processes and deliver significant impact.
The TCS Future Store solution provides access for retailers to data-rich shopper insights that improves the in-store experience resulting in a smart and frictionless retail experience for the customers. Location-based technologies help retailers identify and engage better with customers through personalized promotions, RFID chips and inventory robots ease the efforts of tracking inventory and lower stock-out loss scenarios. The insights from sensor data together with enterprise data enables new capabilities that can drive sales and improved customer satisfaction.
TCS’ solutions for the transportation industry address the problem of information blackouts while a shipment is in transit, with ‘phygital’ technologies such as machine vision and IoT. TCS’ proprietary DigiFleet™, solution, is an IoT enabled SaaS suite, focused on empowering fleet owners and shippers with real time visibility and actionable insights on assets, on-the-move globally, enabling data-driven route planning and work assignment. AI and ML-based predictive recommendations drive operational agility, better capacity utilization and superior customer experience.
Mike Smart, Senior Analyst, NelsonHall, said, “TCS has taken a comprehensive approach to IoT services, with use cases ranging from connected assets to connect products, workforce, operations and supply chain. And TCS is supporting these use cases by investing in IP.”
“The combinatorial power of IoT, machine learning and AI is helping retailers and other consumer-facing businesses build visibility into their supply chains and deliver an enhanced customer experience,” said Shankar Narayanan, Business Head, Retail Cluster, TCS. “Our contextual knowledge, deep domain expertise in the retail and consumer business sector, intellectual property and co-innovation with partners and global academic institutions, are driving our market success.”
