Abstract

Middle market firms are characterized by being highly "fragmented," with each business supporting as many as 10 small remote sites, and relatively conservative with regard to the use of technology. Across industries, businesses in this segment have become increasingly fragmented over the last decade, particularly in the last five years, where advances in technology, namely the Internet, have facilitated their changing organizational structures.

In-Stat/MDR estimates that there will be roughly 87K firms in the middle market by the end of 2002, employing nearly 22 million workers. These firms are expected to support nearly 500K Remote Branch Offices (RBOs) and roughly 5 million telecommuters at that time, roughly 6 RBOs and 52 telecommuters per firm.
