Description

This IDC study provides the latest software license and maintenance revenue shares of the top 10 supplier relationship management applications vendors and the overall market trends that form the basis of a 2004?2008 forecast. Increased investments in suppliers relationship management (SRM) applications are fueling growth of a market that has rebounded slowly after a steep decline just a couple of years ago. "Its premature death has been greatly exaggerated," said Albert Pang, director of Enterprise Applications Research at IDC. "In fact, we expect the market to grow more than 10% on a compound annual basis through 2008 because of large amounts of sourcing and purchasing activities that need to be automated around the globe."
