  • IT Spending Benchmarks - 2000-2001 Industry Rankings by Number of Companies in the Sector (Oct 2000)

    2000-2001 Industry Rankings by Number of Companies in the Sector (Oct 2000)

    One way some supply chain operators identify industries within the U.S. that may by likely to participate in supply chains in 2000 and 2001 is to determine which industries have the largest number of companies in them. However, before recruiting all of the most densely populated industries into supply chains it is important for supply chain promoters to also examine the amount of revenue that is likely to flow through supply chains in the given industry. A large number of companies in an industry may mean it is a good target for supply chain participation, but supply chain promoters should not stop there.

    2000-2001 Industry Potential to Participate in Supply Chain Systems (Oct 2000)

    To help organizations identify industries within the U.S. that have high potential for participating in supply chains in 2000 and 2001, Computer Economics ranked each industry by NAICS code in terms of its potential supply chain volume. Figure 1 shows the top ten industries that have the highest potential dollar amount flowing through supply chain systems in 2000 and 2001. The automobile wholesale sector's relative rank of 100.0 should indicate to supply chain operators looking to promote their systems that this industry has a high supply chain density and has many organizations to participate in new supply chains.

    2000-2001 Industry Rankings by Revenue Volume (Oct 2000)

    One way to identify industries within the U.S. that may by likely to participate in supply chains in 2000 and 2001 is to determine which industries have the largest amounts of revenue. However, before recruiting all of the top revenue industries into supply chains it is important for supply chain promoters to examine the portion of revenue that is likely to flow through supply chains in a given industry. Large volume in revenue is typically the first clue that the industry will participate in supply chains at a high rate during 2000 and 2001, but supply chain promoters should not stop there.

    2000-2001 Potential of U.S. States to Participate in Supply Chain Systems (Oct 2000)

    To help organizations identify areas within the U.S. that have high potential for participating in supply chains in 2000 and 2001, Computer Economics ranked each of the states relative to each other in terms of their potential supply chain volume. We concluded that California has the largest potential dollar amount flowing through supply chain systems. The state. s relative rank of 100.0 should indicate to supply chain operators looking to promote their systems that California has a high supply chain density and has many organizations to participate in new supply chains.

  • IT Spending Benchmarks - Central IS Budgets as a Percentage of Revenue InfoTechMark: TriMark 1998 to 2000 and DeciMark 1991 to 2000 (Feb 2001)

    Central IS Budgets as a Percentage of Revenue InfoTechMark: TriMark 1998 to 2000 and DeciMark 1991 to 2000 (Feb 2001)

    The Central IS Budgets as a Percentage of Revenue InfoTechMark shows the relationship of the IS budget to the organization's revenue. For government organizations, the IS budget is compared to total spending for operations. Results are presented for each sector or by organization revenue. The lower quartile (25th percentile) presents the lowest 25 percent of spending by all of the organizations, where 25 percent spent less than that amount. The median (50th percentile) is the level at which half of the organizations spent less and the remainder spent more. The upper quartile (75th percentile) presents the highest 25 percent of spending by all of the organizations, where 25 percent spent more than that amount.
