DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/x55rb3/oman_information_t) has announced the addition of the "Oman Information Technology Report 2012" report to their offering.
The total size of the Omani IT market in 2012 is forecast by BMI to be worth US$363mn, up from an estimated US$339mn in 2011. BMI forecasts a CAGR of 6% for 2012-2016. Oman's economy is relatively well positioned, but we do not see IT spending returning to its previous rate of growth during our five-year forecast period. Meanwhile, global trends such as cloud computing, virtualisation and convergence are gaining traction in the Omani market.
Oman's IT market is only about 10% of the size of the Saudi market but the government is investing in IT as part of its e-Oman initiative, the strategy to diversify the economy and computers for schools procurements. In addition to ongoing demand from the oil and gas sector, this should generate IT spending in industries such as telecoms, financial services and aviation.
Oil and gas remain the main pillar of the local economy and will generate spending on customised solutions, hardware and software support. Economic reform and trade liberalisation will fuel spending by public sector organisations and private enterprises. Growth in e-commerce will also drive spending by businesses on e-commerce platforms and back-office systems.
