Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The market was built upward from the volume of brokered cloud contracts and managed workloads that pass through a broker's platform each year, combined with the realized service fee or margin a broker earns on integration, billing, security, and orchestration work performed against that volume. Deployment and provider mix inform the price assumption, since a brokerage fee for managing public cloud spend differs from a private cloud integration engagement. The resulting bottom-up figure was checked against the disclosed cloud and managed-services revenue reported by the major systems integrators and technology vendors active in this market, and where a check diverged the underlying volume or fee assumption was revised rather than the disclosed revenue.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Interviews target the roles that actually decide and administer a brokerage relationship: IT procurement and vendor-management leads who select and renew broker contracts, cloud architecture and infrastructure managers who set the integration and security requirements a broker must meet, and channel and alliance leads at the brokers and systems integrators themselves who set pricing and packaging. Regulatory and compliance contacts are included wherever the buyer operates in a regulated sector, since their requirements shape the security and compliance service lines. Sampling weights North America and Europe, where multi-cloud brokerage adoption is most mature, while including enough Asia Pacific coverage to capture the region's faster-growing deployments.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on public cloud infrastructure spend disclosures from the hyperscale providers, procurement and IT services contract filings covering systems integrators, and national statistical agency data on enterprise IT and cloud services expenditure. Regulatory registers covering data-residency and sector-specific cloud compliance requirements, in financial services and healthcare in particular, are used to size the security and compliance service line. Public company filings from the named systems integrators and cloud management vendors, including segment-level cloud and managed-services revenue where disclosed, anchor the top-down check against the bottom-up build.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast is built from the pace at which enterprises are expected to add cloud providers to an already multi-cloud estate, since each additional provider raises the integration and governance burden a broker is engaged to manage. Regulatory tightening around data residency and sector-specific compliance is assumed to keep expanding the security and compliance service line faster than the market overall. Pricing is assumed to compress gradually as brokerage tooling matures and competition increases, a normalization built into the later forecast years rather than held flat. The forecast holds only if enterprises continue distributing workloads across more than one cloud provider rather than consolidating onto a single vendor.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Historical growth for 2020 through 2024 was checked against the actual pace of enterprise multi-cloud adoption and cloud infrastructure spend growth recorded over the same years, and the build was revised where it diverged. Segment-level shifts, including the rising share of security and compliance work and the slower growth of the integration and support line, were reviewed against the roles interviewed in primary research to confirm the direction, not just the level, was plausible. Sensitivities were tested against slower enterprise cloud adoption and against a faster shift of brokerage work back in-house, and the base case sits between those two bounds rather than at either edge.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is firmer for the service type and deployment splits, which follow directly from disclosed cloud infrastructure spend and can be cross-checked against systems integrators' own segment reporting. It is thinner for the organization-size split, where smaller buyers' brokerage spend is rarely disclosed separately and is estimated from adoption proxies rather than direct reporting. The clearest risk to this forecast is a shift toward enterprises building brokerage capability internally rather than buying it, which would slow growth in exactly the service lines currently assumed to expand fastest.
