SOCITM Annual Survey
Over the years I have often wanted to read SOCITM publications - especially their annual survey - but they almost always have crazy prices… £300 for 66 pages this one! Even the summary isn’t available to non-members..
This is a shame, as it looks like there is some interesting stuff in there judging by the press release.
It reckons Local Authority IT spending has increased by 25% to nearly £2.5 billion p.a., due mainly to e-government roll out. This, they argue, ‘is in complete contrast with other non-government sectors where spending is at best flat’.
