   Survey Says - IT Budgets Higher in 2008

According to the recent IT Industry Straw Poll conducted by CDW Corp, 52 per cent of IT executives predict IT budgets will be higher in 2008 than in 2007. James Ford, Founder of ActiveCo Computer Solutions suggests that many small-medium sized companies may face difficulties in expanding their business and face strong competition from those companies that properly develop and implement an IT budget within their organization.  "Over the years we have seen companies fail to align their IT infrastructure with strategic goals.  This disconnect results in a competitive disadvantage when there is no budget or plan in place for the technology required to fully support the business objectives."
