About This Constellation ShortList™
Digital transformation services (DTX) firms work with clients to reimagine new business models, co-innovate and co-create future solutions, and potentially operate these solutions at scale if needed.

They work with all functional departments, such as marketing, sales, customer service, supply chain, e-commerce, IT, digital performance management (DPM) and back-office systems.
DTX firms bring to clients a set of best practices in business strategy, creative design, innovative delivery models, exponential technology expertise and testing methodology in order to guide them to obtain an optimal digital transformation.
