The Expert Guide for this deliverable is Stephanie Atkinson. Forecasts are from 2010 through 2015 and include annual growth rate, as well as percentage of total market. Manufacturing firms have become increasingly reliant on complex technologies, which are better managed by specialized 3rd parties rather than in-house IT teams. Thus IT personnel expenditures have been on the decline whereas outsourcing has experienced steady growth over the same period. This has been primarily driven by outsourcing, allowing the enterprise the liberty to focus on core business, access to unexploited resources and faculty, as well as providing them a margin for commoditization. Outsourcing also acts as a hedge against general IT costs, a decisive capability during an economic slump. It is expected that outsourcing and 3rd party expenditures for US manufacturing businesses will increase over the forecast period, driven by robust rate of spending increase by mid-sized enterprises.
