This report identifies key demand-side trends in the quality engineering (QE) space, assisting enterprises in their QE transformation journeys. It provides an overview of key trends and enterprise challenges that Avasant considers important to highlight in the QE space.
The need to accelerate software delivery while maintaining quality is driving increased demand for QE services. Enterprises are adopting a two-sided QE approach: using AI to improve testing productivity while building new assurance capabilities for AI systems across accuracy, safety, resilience, compliance, and business outcomes. Delivery models are also evolving, with human-led, hybrid, and AI-led execution operating concurrently based on workload complexity, risk, and automation maturity. At the same time, specialized QE practices are expanding across conversational, knowledge-based, agentic, and predictive AI applications. BFSI remains the largest demand center, with high-tech, healthcare and life sciences, and retail and CPG also driving demand for industry-specific QE solutions.
The Quality Engineering Services Market Insights™ aids enterprises in identifying important market trends and challenges for their QE projects.
The industry insights and recommendations presented are based on our ongoing interactions with enterprise CXOs and other key executives, targeted discussions with service providers, subject matter experts, and Avasant Fellows, along with lessons learned from consulting engagements.
