Onshore IT Services Offer Better Solution, as a Third of IT Managers Dissatisfied with IT Offshoring Outside Europe |
A
recent survey carried out by the Economist Intelligence Unit across 20
European countries found that over a third of Senior IT executives had
poor experiences when offshoring outside Europe.
Interestingly, almost 90% of the IT Executives interviewed preferred to
do business with local suppliers for a certain amount of products and
services. And more encouragingly over 50% plan to boost IT services
spending with local suppliers this year.
The reason many companies had previously moved IT services offshore was
due to the lack of price competitiveness of local companies. Yet, the
survey found that both Central and Eastern Europe now provides
attractive ‘nearshore’ locations where vendors can deliver more cost
effectively to clients in the West. However, price isn’t everything and
IT Managers rate European suppliers more highly for their technical
expertise and ability to better fulfil local needs. Innovation is a key
factor in using local IT services companies who can provide
improvements whilst understanding and dealing with local and cultural
needs.
Halian has an enviable track record of delivering a range of IT Managed Services, innovative solutions and technical consulting
expertise to large enterprises across Europe. “As customer demands
continue to stretch internal organisations Halian provides companies
with effective IT services solutions to meet businesses needs. Not only
do we have the right IT skills and expertise, but also pride ourselves
in our innovative approach to both project delivery and our commercial
propositions,” said Andy Turner, Delivery Manager at Halian.
The survey sought opinions from senior people across Europe with the
UK, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Spain, and the Netherlands fielding
the highest respondents. Companies represented also spanned a number of
sectors including financial services, technology, manufacturing, the
public sector, and the majority represented large enterprises with an
annual turnover ranging from 500 to 1 billion euros.
