Report Summary

MS examines Cognizant’s three-vector AI strategy: productivity, industrialization, and agentification. Management frames context engineering as a $5-6T opportunity vs legacy ~$1T SI market. Despite ~$1T invested in AI infrastructure, enterprise ROI remains limited. Equal-weight, $63 PT.

Key Takeaways

  • Context engineering = $5-6T opportunity vs legacy ~$1T SI market ($1T systems + ~$4.5T ops labor exposed to agentification)
  • Three vectors: V1 AI productivity, V2 AI industrialization, V3 enterprise agentification — V2/V3 monetization early
  • Enterprise ROI on ~$1T AI investment largely disconnected from outcomes; CTSH as intermediary for context and model routing
  • Four structural changes needed: IP acceptance, clearer AI returns, faster implementation, SaaS pricing evolution
  • Equal-weight, $63 PT; CIO survey shows flat IT budget growth for CY26
