What NTT does

NTT DATA is a global enterprise IT services company headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, operating in 70+ countries with a workforce of approximately 190,000. The US-domiciled operating entity (NTT DATA, Inc.) sits within NTT DATA Corporation (TSE: 9613), which is majority-owned by NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone); 75% of Global Fortune 100 companies are clients, and the company is ranked the 6th most valuable IT services brand globally. The company serves 13 declared vertical segments including banking and financial services, manufacturing, healthcare, energy and utilities, retail and CPG, telco/media/technology, public sector and education, travel/transportation/logistics, life sciences, insurance, automotive, private equity, and education and research.

The product portfolio is organized around a platform-plus-modules architecture anchored by the proprietary Smart AI Agent™ Ecosystem. Core technical components include AI Studio (generative AI development), Private and Sovereign AI (data-sovereignty-oriented deployments), Edge and Physical AI (computer vision plus IoT for industrial environments), Edge Compute and Private 5G, Global Data Centers, SimpliZCloud (cloud optimization), and a broad enterprise application practice covering ERP, CRM, supply chain, mainframe modernization, and cybersecurity. Strategic partnerships with Google Cloud (Gemini Enterprise integration) and Genesys (Cloud CX) extend the AI and customer-experience surface.

Revenue is generated through five principal streams: Professional Services and Consulting (project and retainer), Application Services, Managed Services (cloud, infrastructure, cybersecurity, digital workplace), Cloud Services (subscription and recurring), and Data Center Services (managed colocation). Pricing is bespoke and contract-based rather than standardized, with multi-year engagements; go-to-market is predominantly direct enterprise field sales targeting Global Fortune 100 and large multi-national clients, supplemented by hyperscaler co-sell motions and analyst-recognized thought leadership content.
