IT-consultants
Professional IT services providers with a strong focus on enterprise trends must be aware of the value they can bring for their clients. Consultants can align the mobility projects of the businesses with their overall strategic goals in business development, operations, talent management, and innovation.
They can also help with the assessment of requirements, workflow adjustments, and manage the expectations regarding mobility project implementations times and challenges. Consultants have the background to prove that, as a result of a mobility investment, the performance of the clients will have measurable and sustainable improvements.
Mobile developers
In 2015, Strategy Analytics put the enterprise mobile application development market size at $41bn globally and expected it to reach $63bn by 2020. But the market grew more of a lightning speed, totalling at $74bn in 2016 according to the estimates, and expected to almost double at $128bn in 2022. The research also showed that certain sales force and field force automation apps were more widely used among employees, but corporate email and messaging were still the most popular applications.
Developers with a forward-looking approach can see the opportunities presented by this dynamics of market growth. In the recent years, the profession also attracted many new faces: according to the State of Mobile App Developers survey from 2016, about three-fourth of the developers have been in the industry for less than three years. Also in this survey is data showing that currently, only 8% of developers are working on tools in the enterprise category.
While market growth is steadily supported by the wide expansion of mobile working, the growing availability of cloud and data services and wireless networks, a support system is also starting to develop on the supply side. Application platforms and builder toolkits that use modules for either native or web-based developments let developers create tailor-made, yet ready-to-deploy business applications cutting development times in half.
System integrators
Technavio puts the global system integration services market size at $362bn in 2016, with an 8% CAGR-potential, reaching almost $500bn in value by 2021. Another body, Research & Markets, has a calculation of the value lower, at $270bn for last year, with a prognosis of $388bn for 2021, but still showing a 7.5% CAGR. Yet another report by Grand View Research puts the bar at a value of $528bn to be reached by 2025. Automation and cloud integration seem to be the biggest drivers for growth.
The fragmentation and development, along with the growing investment volumes in IT, have been presenting new opportunities for system integrators, namely, specialisation. One of the specific areas of technology is mobile and integrating mobile solutions is an expertise often leading business to smaller integrators.
