CIO调查显示：IT花费在7月份有所增长

CIO survey: IT spending projections jump in July

IT spending during the next 12 months will grow by 10.1%, according to the monthly CIO Magazine Tech Poll released today (download PDF). That's the highest predicted level of spending since April 2001. "The 10.1% [growth rate] is the strongest forecast in over four years and the single largest increase month-to-month in the five-year history of the poll. But we're not breaking out the champagne bottles just yet," said Gary Beach, group publisher at CXO Media Inc. "The 10.1% isn't far out of line, but we have to wait a couple more months before we say that spending is back."

Beach said CIOs are switching from just spending to keep up with technology to actually investing in new technology.

"There's a big difference there," Beach said. "When you're investing, you're looking toward the future; when you're spending, you're just looking at things more tactically. In the conversations I've had with CIOs, they say they're being asked by the corner office to once again look at changing the business with technology."

AMTeam.org消息：按照每月公布的CIO杂志主办的调查显示，在未来的12个月中，IT投资将会增长10.1%。这是自从2001年以来预测的最高值。CXO Media公司的经理Gary Beach认为，IT投资将会增长10.1%虽然是一个很高的数字，但是我们不得不再等几个月然后才能得到IT投资复苏的那一天。

Beach说，公司的CIO们正在从仅仅投资与现有的技术，使自己的技术和时代同步到最终真正的投资到新的技术之中。

他同时认为，这是区别很大的一件事情，当公司的CIO们进行投资的时候，是未来获得未来的竞争力，但是当公司的CIO们进行正常的IT花费的时候，仅仅是在进行一些比较基础的事情。只有尽心必要的IT投资，公司才会在未来获得必要的商业竞争力。
