Tech spending to rise, say CIOs

Making IT decisions: it's all about the money.

From the article:
More than two-thirds of the executives [CIOs]polled did not view BPO [Business Process Outsourcing] as important to their roles through 2007. However, Gartner pointed out that in most cases they are not included in the BPO decision-making process, as suppliers tend to go directly to executives in business units for those deals. The firm's analysts questioned this situation and encouraged companies to keep CIOs in the loop when considering BPO offers.

That would be nice, but why involve CIO's in what's essentially a business decision?

You know, I've wondered why Mike Cox's Microsoft rep wastes so much time with him. He should spend more time with the decision makers.
