London, UK – 9 June, 2015 – Ness Software Engineering Services (SES), a leading provider of software product engineering services, today launched its portfolio of digital transformation services designed to help enterprises compete in the digital economy. These services help clients assess the readiness of their customer engagement processes and technology stack for digital business, and then build the required software user experiences, platform modifications, and data analytics necessary to win in today’s markets. The launch of the digital transformation services portfolio addresses enterprises’ concerns that they are unprepared for the rapid digitisation of business and competition from digital-native companies who are quickly gaining market share. A recent study commissioned by Ness SES of 1,000 business leaders found over half (57%) do not understand the Digital Economy and 42% say that an inability to innovate is harming the future of their businesses. Nearly half (46%) said they do not have the skills or expertise to drive digital transformation projects in terms of developing, deploying, managing and supporting the technology.Finding external support to accelerate innovation and minimise business risk is critical today. Ness SES has created a portfolio of services based on the company’s deep experience in digital transformation projects for clients globally. Services include:???
