Summary

This IDC study answers the following questions:

How is the model of offshore evolving?
What is the opportunity for offshore providers by geographic region?
What are IDC's predictions and assumptions relating to market forces impacting the offshore IT services market, and what impact will they have on the market forecasts?
Which assumptions are of sufficient importance that a change in the assumption would result in a change in the market forecasts?
What impact will developments in this market have on the players in the market?
What are the not-to-be-missed opportunities?

"While achieving dramatic success in the past 5-10 years, the offshore IT services market, and the players competing in this space, are faced with an unprecedented set of economic forces and changing customer needs that is forcing this industry to make dramatic changes in their businesses to ensure both short- and long-term growth," said David Tapper, vice president for Outsourcing and Offshore Services at IDC. "IDC believes that success for these players will reside in their ability to either find niche areas of focus or scale up and provide end-to-end capabilities with stronger local (developed market) presence and a greater focus on outsourced/managed services, which increasingly includes provisioning of services in the form of utility-based offerings."
