Gartner names Deloitte a visionary in global SAP Application Management Services (AMS)

New York, NY, 18 November 2012 — Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited (DTTL) is pleased to announce that Gartner has named Deloitte* a visionary in the analyst firm’s Magic Quadrant for SAP Application Management Service Providers, Worldwide. 

“Gartner’s recognition of Deloitte’s strong capabilities in SAP application services is a considerable accomplishment. Deloitte member firms take pride in providing our global clients with the application development, implementation, integration, and maintenance support they need to stay competitive in a challenging and dynamic business environment,” said Larry Calabro, Global SAP AMS Leader, DTTL.

Gartner evaluates service providers on their ability to execute, and their completeness of vision.  When the two sets of criteria are evaluated together, the resulting analysis provides a view of how well the provider performs a spectrum of services compared with its peers and how well it is positioned for the future. 

According to Gartner, visionaries in this category articulate important market trends and direction. However, they may not be in a position to fully deliver and consistently execute. They may need to improve their optimization of service delivery.
