BOSTON, MA, June 07, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- TechnologyConference.com announces the three-day seminar on Fastest Growing Federal IT segments. IT experts and CIO's come together to share their experiences in implementation of new IT technologies in the Federal Government sector. The U.S. Senate approved the Information Technology Investment Oversight Enhancement and Waste Prevention Act of 2009, co-authored by Sens. Tom Carper (D-Del.) and Susan Collins (R-Maine), which seeks to better monitor the approximate $80 billion that federal agencies spend every year on information technology (IT). These funds are expected to boost adoption of new IT technologies by the Federal Government.
According to a recently updated market study U.S. Federal IT Market Forecast 2011-2015 the U.S. Federal IT market will grow steadily - at about 4.7% CAGR over the next five years, with a cumulative market valued at $530 billion (2011 - 2015). The Administration is keen to deploy technologies proved their worth in the private sector. The technology segments like business intelligence, cloud computing, eDiscovery, GIS and geospatial, Health Information Technology, non-relational database management systems, Smart Grid, SOA, unified communications and virtualization will see double digit growth in the period 2011 - 2015. Total annual U.S. Federal IT market will surpass $116 billion by 2015 according to Market Research Media study.
"At a time when our country is facing record deficits it is simply unacceptable that federal agencies continue to waste billions of dollars by mismanaging information technology investments," said Sen. Carper, Chairman of the Senate Subcommittee on Federal Financial Management. "Information technology is critical to ensuring that our government runs well in an increasingly digital age but it's clear that federal agencies are dropping the ball when it comes to deploying the right technology in a timely and cost-effective manner. We can do better and frankly we must. This legislation will provide the planning and oversight needed to reduce waste and improve the federal government's information technology operations."
Seminar participants will explore cases and challenges of implementing emerging technologies in the Federal IT infrastructure. Participants will look for ways to identify the unique aspects of doing business with Federal IT managers and contractors.
