New Market Research Report: Indonesia Information Technology Report Q4 2010

Recently published research from Business Monitor International, "Indonesia Information Technology Report Q4 2010", is now available at Fast Market Research
 
Nov. 6, 2010 - PRLog -- The Indonesian IT market should grow at a CAGR of around 15% over 2010-2014, with a revival in business spending building on momentum from consumer spending in the second half of last year. In 2010, demand for IT products and services is forecast to return to double-digit growth territory, after some manufacturing organisations deferred IT procurements in 2009. There was continued spending however in the financial sector, which previously accounted for as much as 30% of total spending.

Indonesia is expected to be one of the best regional IT market growth prospects over BMI's five-year forecast period. IT spending is forecast to increase to US$4.5bn in 2010, up from US$3.6bn in 2009. Some fundamental drivers, including low computer penetration and growing affordability, should ensure that the market remains firmly in positive growth territory. Growing investment in data centres and other ICT infrastructure will drive demand for IT services.

By 2014, Indonesia's hardware-dominated IT market is projected to reach a value of US$8.1bn. With information and communication technology (ICT) penetration of only around 20% and development restricted to richer areas such as Java, the market has much growth potential. However, the country's uneven development and digital divide are major barriers to faster growth in this potentially huge IT market.

Industry Developments

In April 2010, the government said it was ready to eliminate duties on PC components in a bid to assist the local PC industry. Nearly all PC components, such as motherboards and graphic cards, used by the industry are imported, which means manufacturers have to pay import duties.

In 2009, a ministerial decree directed that local government offices across Indonesia must adopt opensource software (OSS) by 2011. The city of Surabaya launched a pilot project for OSS applications with the goal of saving 20-25% of the municipality's budget.

The government is rolling out e-learning initiatives, which could cause education's share of local IT spending to rise from its estimated level of around 4%. The ratio of PCs-to-students in public schools is around 1:3,200. The government wants to increase this to 1:20. As there are 53mn students in the Indonesian schools system, this would require at least 2.5mn computers.

Competitive Landscape

PC market leader Acer has announced its target of increasing its share of the Indonesian PC market in 2010. Indonesia has already become Acer's largest South East Asian PC market, surpassing Thailand and Malaysia. Acer has said that it expects netbooks to comprise around 30% of its total PC sales in Indonesia this year. Meanwhile second-placed vendor HP pledged to strike back and set a target of reclaiming top spot in the Indonesian market from Acer at some point in 2010.

The next few years should feature a shift away from packaged proprietary software towards other models, such as cloud computing. Microsoft Indonesia has reported that cloud computing accounts for around 20% of its local revenues and had been growing at about 50% per year. In 2010, Telkom partnered with Microsoft to launch cloud computing services which target SMEs with applications for tax and finance.

IT service vendors have reported a growing demand in the telecoms, manufacturing and banking sectors. Oracle has an agreement with local IT solutions provider PT Sigma Cipta Caraka to provide outsourcing services. E-government is also being looked at by IT service vendors as a potential growth area. Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) said it has targeted the government as a future growth driver in the Indonesian market. TCS' 15 local clients to date are mainly from sectors such as banking, financial services, telecoms and media.
