New report: Benelux IT Outsourcing 2010

Performance & Outlook

While the economy is slowly starting to recover after the financial crisis and the ensuing recession, Benelux companies generally are still careful with their spending. This makes IT units in Benelux companies face pressures that are inherently in conflict with each other. On the one hand they are asked to reduce or keep a lid on new IT investments and on the other hand they are expected to help making the company operate more efficiently and enable the company to get more business with the help of new and innovative IT solutions. It is thus not surprising that there is a renewed interest to discuss the merits of outsourcing in the media and in the companies as a way to reconcile this dilemma. The question is what effect this interest and discussions have on the companies’ current actual use of outsourcing and their immediate plans.

The report maps out large Nordic companies’ outsourcing plans, priorities and success. This entails looking at such areas as how the spending on outsourcing in relation to total IT spending is expected to change in 2010, what the most important outsourcing goals currently are and how well these goals have been reached in the past.
