Secondary sources included annual reports, press releases, and investor presentations of companies; white papers, journals, and certified publications; and articles from recognized authors, directories, and databases. The data was also collected from other secondary sources, such as journals, government websites, blogs, and vendor websites. Additionally, decision intelligence spending of various countries was extracted from the respective sources. Secondary research was mainly used to obtain key information related to the industry’s value chain and supply chain to identify key players based on platforms, solutions, services, market classification, and segmentation according to offerings of major players, industry trends related to solutions, platforms, services, types, business functions, verticals, and regions, and key developments from both market- and technology-oriented perspectives.

Market Size Estimation

Multiple approaches were adopted for estimating and forecasting the decision intelligence market. The first approach involves estimating the market size by summation of companies’ revenue generated through the sale of platforms, solutions, and services.

Market Size Estimation Methodology-Top-down approach

In the top-down approach, an exhaustive list of all the vendors offering solutions and services in the decision intelligence market was prepared. The revenue contribution of the market vendors was estimated through annual reports, press releases, funding, investor presentations, paid databases, and primary interviews. Each vendor’s offerings were evaluated based on the breadth of offerings, types, business functions, verticals, and regions. The aggregate of all the companies’ revenue was extrapolated to reach the overall market size. Each subsegment was studied and analyzed for its global market size and regional penetration. The markets were triangulated through both primary and secondary research. The primary procedure included extensive interviews for key insights from industry leaders, such as CIOs, CEOs, VPs, directors, and marketing executives. The market numbers were further triangulated with the existing MarketsandMarkets repository for validation.

Market Size Estimation Methodology-Bottom-up approach

In the bottom-up approach, the adoption rate of decision intelligence offerings among different end users in key countries with respect to their regions contributing the most to the market share was identified. For cross-validation, the adoption of decision intelligence solutions and services among industries, along with different use cases with respect to their regions, was identified and extrapolated. Weightage was given to use cases identified in the different areas for the market size calculation.

Based on the market numbers, the regional split was determined by primary and secondary sources. The procedure included the analysis of the decision intelligence market’s regional penetration. Based on secondary research, the regional spending on Information and Communications Technology (ICT), socio-economic analysis of each country, strategic vendor analysis of major decision intelligence solution providers, and organic and inorganic business development activities of regional and global players were estimated. With the data triangulation procedure and data validation through primaries, the exact values of the overall decision intelligence market size and segments’ size were determined and confirmed using the study.

Data Triangulation

After arriving at the overall market size using the market size estimation processes as explained above, the market was split into several segments and subsegments. To complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at the exact statistics of each market segment and subsegment, data triangulation and market breakup procedures were employed, wherever applicable. The overall market size was then used in the top-down procedure to estimate the size of other individual markets via percentage splits of the market segmentation.
