US Business Telecom Expenditures By Vertical, 2010-2015

"Expenditure on US business telecom is expected to rise steadily over the next five years, increasing from $297 billion (in 2011) to $363 billion (in 2015), marking a total growth of over 28% within this time period. Current contribution from Services sector (35.7% in 2011) towards total US Business telecom spending will notice an increase to 37.3% (in 2015), equating to over $135 billion in 2015. Most other businesses including mining, manufacturing, FIRE and Government are expected to register a proportional decline in spending contribution, though will register individual monetary growths. An overall decrease in spending growth can be attributed to cheaper technology, off-shoring and regulatory changes that demand efficiency and effectiveness of processes at a lower cost.
