The Lünendonk® Study: Guidance in the Data & AI Market

The market for Data & AI services is highly fragmented. Many providers position themselves as offering end-to-end capabilities, AI expertise, and sustainable architectures. In practice, however, levels of performance, maturity, and market positioning vary significantly. Against this backdrop, an objective classification of service providers is particularly important for organizations.

The Lünendonk® Study 2025/2026 provides decision-makers and project leads with a well-founded market overview and helps them realistically assess providers, topics, and expectations. Based on an independent analysis of the German Data & AI market, the study reduces complexity and supports strategic decision-making in the Data & AI environment.

  • Which Data & AI topics are currently of strategic relevance to organizations?
  • What expectations do organizations realistically have of external service providers today?
  • Which providers are genuinely relevant in the German market – beyond marketing narratives?
  • An independent assessment of the German Data & AI market
  • Transparency on provider profiles and market structures
  • A solid basis for market exploration, longlists and investment decisions

The inclusion of HMS in the Lünendonk® Study helps you to

  • Objectively assess HMS within the German Data & AI services market
  • Evaluate HMS’s service portfolio and market position in comparison with other providers
  • Consider HMS as a potential partner for complex data and AI initiatives

The study therefore provides an additional, independent perspective to support the preselection of suitable partners.

The full Lünendonk® Study 2025/2026 is available for download directly from Lünendonk. Use the findings as a point of reference for your upcoming Data & AI initiatives.
