Procurement - Purchasing White Papers

September 2006 IT Priorities Report

Overview In the September 2006 survey of IT priorities of medium to large U.S. organizations, IT decision makers expect spending to increase in application development, security, and wired and wireless networking solutions over the next year. Wireless/mobile solutions' spending is expected to grow 10% over next 12 months, and network administration is expected to grow 20% over the same timeframe.

CNET Network's IT Priorities Research Program surveys technology decision makers in medium and large organizations each month and asks them about their current and planned IT spending. The study is designed to provide a near-real-time snapshot of business technology project priorities over two timeframes: now and 12 months in the future. CNET has been publishing these data since November 2002.
