IDC MaturityScape Benchmark: AI-Fueled Professional Services Organization Worldwide, 2025
This IDC study presents the results of IDC's MaturityScape Benchmark AI Survey to help guide professional services organizations on their AI maturity journey."It's no surprise to see professional services firms, which are at the heart of knowledge management and eager for the possibility of AI augmentation, to be more represented in the 'repeatable' maturity stage than most other industries," said Gard Little, research vice president, Global Services, Markets, and Trends at IDC. "But because professional services firms are generally more decentralized than industries like manufacturing, some unique challenges arise related to the enterprisewide adoption of AI."
