RAM 2025 Multimodel/Multilevel Assessments and two separate graphs — what do they say to you?
GRAPH 1
GRAPH 2
Consultants/SIs = Consultants / Systems Integrators — “The Symptom Line.”
Graph 1 shows the divergence: Industry revenue grew 15-21x while implementation success remained flat at ~20%. The ecosystem is optimized for selling race entry, not race readiness.
Graph 2 shows the consequence: Practitioner trust in analysts and consultants collapsed from 80%+ to 20-25% over the same period. Trust in fellow practitioners rose from 28% to 90%.
The pattern is clear: Revenue and trust moved in opposite directions.
The question isn’t whether practitioners have noticed. They have. The question is whether the ecosystem will change before the next technology wave repeats the same failure.
