The signs are clear and visible. 2009 is going to be a year of serious recession resulting in cost cutting and downsizing across millions of companies irrespective of size. As companies try to squeeze every penny spent, investments on IT and IT management will come to a halt in large and medium enterprises. Small and medium enterprises (SME) won’t be able to bear the brunt of this deepening recession and will most likely close down their one man IT shops and start looking out for inexpensive alternatives. This calls for a new breed of managed service providers who could offer vital IT services at a fixed and inexpensive price point.
