Technology

Technology sector dynamics are constantly changing with increasing acquisition activities, technological advancements and marketplace demands. Organisations no longer consider IT an automatic shortcut to success and demand that associated expenditure is carefully evaluated to ensure those products and services purchased add value to the organisation. The supplier landscape is becoming ever more competitive meaning predefined supplier hierarchies are being undermined by niche, low cost providers.
