This growth is driven by increasing AI adoption across industries such as healthcare, finance, retail, and manufacturing, fueled by the need for automation, competitive advantage, and improved customer experiences. Nearly 70% of global businesses are either implementing or planning AI integration as part of their digital transformation strategies, creating strong demand for expert consulting and ongoing support. The market is segmented by service type, company type, and industry sector. Analytics Consulting remains the largest segment, accounting for 38.1% of the market in 2024, as organizations seek to extract actionable insights from vast volumes of structured and unstructured data using predictive analytics, machine learning, and big data tools. Digital Strategy & Transformation is the fastest-growing service type, with a projected CAGR of 36.2%, reflecting the need for end-to-end AI integration across business functions, including process reengineering, customer experience redesign, and AI-driven innovation. AI Support Services focus on maintaining and optimizing deployed AI systems, including monitoring, troubleshooting, performance enhancement, scalability, and knowledge transfer. While AI Consulting delivers the initial solution, Support Services ensure long-term reliability, compliance, and adaptability to evolving business needs. North America holds the largest market share at 36.8% in 2024, led by the United States, which benefits from advanced digital infrastructure, high cloud adoption, and stringent data privacy regulations like the CCPA.

In terms of company type, large enterprises dominate the market with a 63.1% share, driven by complex operations, global scale, and significant AI investment. However, SMEs are expected to grow at a rapid CAGR of 35.9% through 2030, empowered by cloud-based AI tools, AI-as-a-Service (AIaaS) models, and government-backed programs that lower entry barriers. The BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) sector leads by market share at 22.1%, leveraging AI for fraud detection, risk modeling, automation, and personalized services. Healthcare is the fastest-growing sector, with a projected CAGR of 36.6%, as consulting services help manage large medical datasets, deploy predictive models, integrate AI into clinical decision-making, and ensure compliance with regulations such as HIPAA and GDPR.

These firms offer comprehensive AI consulting and support solutions, from strategy development and model deployment to governance, ethics, and workforce training. Their market positioning reflects strong capabilities in digital transformation, industry specialization, and global delivery networks.
