Example of ‘understanding the market’:
Artificial Intelligence
Non-linear progression from Machine Learning via Deep
Learning towards AGI.
Back to the drawing board every 20 years with a third AI
winter overdue.
Previous limitations have arisen due to processing
capabilities.
Limitations of approach, i.e. neural networks must
progress from “what?” to “why?” to move beyond pattern
recognition.
AI is mostly about “human augmentation” (or “task
outsourcing”) for quite a while.

Best Practice & Vendor Selection
▪ Best practice:
▪ Project prioritisation based on which have
provided the best results.
▪ Setting expectations based on experience of
others who have deployed similar projects.
▪ Selecting the most appropriate technologies
based on the specific parameters of a project.
▪ Analysts will also compile aggregated analysis
of key trends across these technologies.
▪ Vendor selection:
▪ Discover which vendors have won what types
of project in the past. For instance, which are
better at more complex projects, or those that
involve wide area connectivity.
▪ Complemented by independent views from our
analysts on the capabilities of each vendor.
▪ Analyst will also compile reports providing
competitor benchmarking to allow vendors to
better understand their market position.
The client interface with our Case Study Database will use the comprehensive data set in several ways:
