Abstract

This IDC study presents the IT services industry in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 2008 and forecasts expenditure on IT services through 2013. The study contains market size data and forecasts for 13 foundation markets and vertical markets.

The study answers the following questions:

  • What are IDC's forecasts for spending on IT services? What are the assumptions behind the forecast numbers? What impact will these assumptions have on market forecasts?
  • What do end-users have to say about their concerns and preferences regarding IT services procurement?
  • What are the latest trends in IT services delivery, such as managed services and outsourcing?
  • Which vertical markets will be most affected by the current economic crisis, and which will be most resilient and will recover the fastest in the future?

"IT service providers in Saudi Arabia need to invest the time and effort to fully understand the requirements of their customers and are advised to verticalize solutions and service offerings to suit the requirements of their target industries. Sales cycles are likely to become longer, and IT providers are going to need to focus on developing sales strategies and service lines that support the industry requirements of their customers in these challenging economic times." - Research Manager Margaret Adam, IDC Middle East, Africa, and Turkey
