NTT DATA earned above-average ratings in each of the report’s nine Market Impact and Vision and Capability segments¹.

Everest Group’s annual assessment evaluated 35 healthcare service providers. Leaders were recognized based on a number of factors, including their ability to position themselves as strategic partners, their willingness to invest in key technologies, the breadth of the healthcare-specific portfolio of solutions, and their ability to proactively approach unique data and analytics healthcare use cases.

In the report, Everest Group noted that NTT DATA’s clients highlighted the company’s key differentiators as strong relationship management, deep expertise in data, and the ability to bring in different problem-solving perspectives. The analyst firm also stated that NTT DATA has established a stronger global mix of clients from Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, North America, and South America – unlike most peers whose clients are concentrated in the U.S. and U.K.

"Healthcare organizations are looking for global partners to deliver data-driven technology solutions that help them improve health outcomes and enhance patient experiences," said Kaz Nishihata, Director and Senior Executive Vice President at NTT DATA Group Corporation. "We believe being recognized by Everest Group as a Leader in healthcare data and analytics services shows that NTT DATA’s technology, expertise and global delivery model give providers and health plans the edge they need to compete in the healthcare market."

According to Everest Group, NTT DATA’s healthcare-focused offerings – including its integrated data and analytics platform, Business Insights Engine (BIE) and Nucleus for Healthcare platform – help the company deliver value for healthcare enterprises through data integration, data monetization, automation, advanced analytics, AI and natural language processing (NLP).

The company acquired Apisero, a MuleSoft software applications consulting firm, and Hashmap to help clients gain better insights through advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.

"Effective and responsible use of healthcare data and analytics are critical differentiators in healthcare today," said Tanvir Khan, Chief Digital and Strategy Officer, NTT DATA Services. "We’re extremely proud that Everest Group continues to recognize our leadership in the field. Our data-driven solutions – like Nucleus for Healthcare and Business Insights Engine – break down silos, streamline costs, and accelerate health and wellbeing across the healthcare ecosystem."

"The focus on data and analytics services for healthcare enterprises surpasses reducing costs and optimizing operations to priorities such as enhancing customer experience and improving health outcomes. In a bid to stay competitive in key areas such as value-based care, population health, interoperability, and data privacy, healthcare enterprises are seeking external support for data and analytics capabilities to form a strong foundation of their technology roadmap," said Priya Sahni, Practice Director, Everest Group.

"NTT DATA has a strong suite of healthcare-focused offerings such as Nucleus for Healthcare. Its strategic acquisitions in targeted growth areas such as that of Hashmap will help it to share deep technical expertise with modern data platforms and enable it to deliver increased impact to its clients. NTT DATA’s capability to provide tailored solutions to clients across all major global locations, deep expertise in data, and ability to bring in different problem-solving perspectives has helped position it as a Leader in Everest Group’s Healthcare Data and Analytics Services PEAK Matrix^® Assessment 2023," Sahni added.
