Worldwide Services Forecast, 2024-2028


This IDC study details the 2024–2028 market sizing and growth rates for the worldwide services market. This market is broken down into two major views. The first is the macromarket view, which segments the services market into three macromarkets (project-oriented services, managed services, and support services) that are then further broken down into 14 foundation markets. The second is the regional view, which is broken into nine regions (Canada, United States, Latin America [LATAM], Western Europe [WE], Central and Eastern Europe [CEE], the Middle East and Africa [MEA], Asia/Pacific [excluding Japan and China] [APEJC], China, and Japan). The Market Forecast section of this document provides a variety of quantitative data and qualitative commentary for each view.Special attention is paid to how the growth rates have changed as compared with the forecast that was published six months ago in Worldwide Services Forecast Update, 2023-2027 (IDC #US50051923, November 2023). IDC is also keeping a close watch on macroeconomic conditions, company profits and investment levels, and IT services vendors' performance across regions for the rest of 2024. Based on our assessment of these indicators or any other factor affecting services spending, we may revise our services spending forecasts accordingly for the 2024-2028 period in the next update."Inflationary pressures and macroeconomic challenges are likely to continue to impact the organizational spending in 2024, resulting in the services' growth in the low single digits for the rest of the forecast period," said Nishant Bansal, associate research director with IDC's Worldwide Services program. "Despite the current economic pressures, the impact of economic headwinds on IT spend by organizations has seen a dip over the years as organizations see automation and the use of new technologies as cost-saving benefits to weather out the challenges from economic downturn."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
