This Excel-based Data-rich Deliverable (DRD) that is part of the Retail subscription includes market intelligence on IT: Personnel expenditures for the Retail Trade vertical. Compass Intelligence defines IT personnel as expenditures on internal staffing, part-time and full-time, within a firm's IT department. Retail includes establishments engaged in retailing merchandise, generally without transformation, and rendering services incidental to the sale of merchandise. The retailing process is the final step in the distribution of merchandise; retailers are, therefore, organized to sell merchandise in small quantities to the general public. This sector comprises two main types of retailers: store and nonstore retailers. Size of business includes SOHO (1-4 employees), Small Business (5-99 employees), Mid-Sized Business (100-999 employees), and Enterprise Business (Over 1000 employees). The Expert Guide for this deliverable is Stephanie Atkinson. Forecasts are from 2006 through 2011 and include annual growth rate, as well as percentage of total market.
