Navigating the Platform Odyssey: Software Product Engineering Services PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2024
PEAK Matrix® Report
In the product engineering space, software remains the largest area of expenditure, maintaining its upward trajectory despite a slower pace. This deceleration is primarily due to recessionary headwinds, geopolitical conflicts, talent shortages, and delayed decision-making within enterprises. Amid this macroeconomic turbulence, several themes continue to drive software R&D forward. These include transitioning to platform-based business models, increasing the adoption of AI- and gen AI-augmented secure products, prioritizing sustainability, and enhancing customer and developer experiences.
The shift toward these transformative themes, coupled with the current economic climate, is significantly altering enterprises’ expectations from their providers. Rather than solely seeking providers focused on offering engineering talent, enterprises now aspire to engage with strategic partners capable of delivering savings, speed, and innovation simultaneously.
