This IDC study examines the IS outsourcing market in New Zealand. In particular, this report will provide a brief review of 2004, going on to provide a forecast through to 2009, and will look at key trends, market drivers and inhibitors, and the level of brand awareness among end users within the New Zealand outsourcing market.

"The collaboration of Telecom New Zealand and Gen-i will have a profound effect on pushing the IS outsourcing market towards producing ICT-convergent offerings. Increased pressure will be applied by the fact that the space within the converged market will be limited by the capability of telecommunications to partner with IT service providers," says Jenna Griffin, market analyst, IT Services and Solutions Research, IDC New Zealand.
