This IDC study presents the ITS industry in Russia and forecasts expenditure on ITS through 2012. The study contains market size, vendor market shares, and forecasts for thirteen foundation market categories.

The study ranks the ITS providers by their 2007 revenues and includes detailed profiles of their ITS portfolios for the leading suppliers, their presence in individual vertical markets, and their largest contracts. The top services providers for each of IDC's foundation-market categories are also provided.

The study answers the following questions:

• What are IDC's predictions for spending on ITS, what are the assumptions for forecast numbers, and what impact will these have on the market forecasts?
• What are the new trends in ITS delivery, such as outsourcing and business services?
• Who are the market leaders based on services revenue, and what are their strengths, weaknesses, and strategies for the future?

"Spending on ITS in Russia will increase at a high annual growth rate in the coming years, driven by expansion in the domestic economy, acceptance of IT services as a business growth tool, the impact of foreign direct investment, government-initiated countrywide infrastructure projects, and further consolidation and regional development of major ITS providers." – Alexander Prokhorov, Research Analyst, IDC Russia
