IT outsourcing trends revealed
IT outsourcing providers have been advised that they must adapt to a series of changes in the sector over the coming months and years.

Management and technology consultant Diamond has issued the warning ahead of the release of its latest outsourcing global report, according to Consultant News.

Among the big moves will be an increased clamour for the services of leading advisers and a worrying trend of many firms moving their IT departments back in house due to dissatisfaction at the services offered.

It also claims that China is set to see a sizeable increase in market share of IT outsourcing over the coming months.

"According to Diamond's annual global IT outsourcing studies, the number of buyers that expect to outsource IT functions to China has soared 48 per cent between 2004 and 2006," said Tom Weakland, the head of the firm's Strategic Sourcing Advisory arm.

"The Olympics are the perfect platform for Chinese outsourcers to begin to convert those expectations into real market share and establish their reputations as capable, high-quality providers."

It looks set to be a busy few months for outsourcers.
