EMEA IT Outsourcing Deals: Q2 2006

by Caroline Roeleveld-Hoekendijk, Andrew Parker

with Onica King, Matthew McCormack

This is an excerpt

Executive Summary

With 65 deals closed and approximately €5 billion spent on IT services in EMEA, Q2 2006 greatly resembled Q2 2005. But closer inspection shows that these two points of comparison are the only real parallels between the two quarters. The balance of contracts by service type has shifted hugely, and Q2 2006 shows a different picture concerning the vertical markets as well. Firms in the consumer products segment have come from nowhere last year to top the list with 16% of all deals this time, while the established sectors saw a drop in their share of deals. The same is true for the distribution of deals by country: UK firms lost significant ground in comparison with last year, while German and French firms were more active. Vendor success wasn't striking; this quarter; we only found one megadeal — CSC's deal with BAE Systems. As noted in previous quarters, EDS had the most deals.
