The report, titled The Forrester Wave™: Digital Transformation Services Q4 2023, recognized BCG for its emphasis on speed to value through a “think big, start small, scale quickly approach.”
The Forrester Wave™ evaluation assessed 15 digital transformation providers that they deemed “the top vendors in the market.” Participating vendors were categorized as Leaders, Strong Performers, Contenders, and Challengers. BCG was one of five vendors identified as a Leader.
The report stated that “BCG’s emphasis on business strategy consulting and organizational transformation is reflected in its strong capabilities in these areas, relying on established C-suite relationships to create buy-in and collaboration across the organization. With BCG X (the firm’s tech build and design unit), it has established a strong differentiator in business model innovation based on a vast catalog of prebuilt components to quickly assemble new business units while co-innovating with clients to further expand the IP catalog.”
