Cognizant Named to “Winner’s Circle” for ServiceNow Capabilities in New Report (HITS)

Cognizant today announced it has been named to the “Winner’s Circle” in the new HfS Research Blueprint Report: ServiceNow Services 2016 for innovation and execution in delivering to clients as-a-service computing solutions and technologies leveraging the ServiceNow enterprise cloud. HfS Research is a leading independent global analyst firm for the business and IT services industry. Cognizant is recognized in this HfS Blueprint report for its “focus and strong credentials as a managed service provider” that is “extending its strength” in remote infrastructure management (RIM) to virtualized offerings.

The Blueprint report, the first to be published by HfS about the ServiceNow ecosystem, analyzes the capabilities of 14 leading ServiceNow service providers. Each provider is rated on a number of criteria in equally weighted categories of innovation and execution. Companies found to be competitively differentiated in a line of service delivery, and actively advancing what HfS defines as the “as-a-service economy” by delivering business outcome-oriented, on-demand talent and technology services, are named to the “Winner’s Circle.”

“With its single code and data model as well as its focus on intelligent automation, collaboration and workflows, the ServiceNow platform has the potential to evolve into a crucial building block for the as-a-service economy. Cognizant is helping clients on that journey by integrating next-gen innovation assets with proprietary ServiceNow assets,” said Tom Reuner, Research Vice President at HfS Research.

“In particular, Cognizant is taking a holistic view to service delivery by integrating those capabilities with big data and intelligent automation, thus accelerating client’s time to value through faster actions and interactions, overcoming legacy solutions like ITSM (IT service management),” concluded Reuner.
