Different from the traditional consulting industry, IT consulting industry combines management ideas, brand-new business models and modern IT technology to provide enterprises with consulting and services in the field of Internet services. Network socialization has triggered the development of IT consulting industry. Especially in China, "informatization drives industrialization" has become a basic national policy. As an important countermeasure of globalization and an important means of stimulating domestic demand and economy, the next 5- 10 years will usher in the climax of informatization in China. The demand for IT consulting has obviously started, but most of the demand is still in a vague embryonic state, and the market is also very scattered, including system integration companies, technology companies, traditional consulting companies and even some websites, which engage in certain consulting business and divide certain markets.
Although it consulting has just started in China, there are still many problems, and many people are still full of confidence in IT. From a global perspective, the development momentum of online consultation is in the ascendant. The corporate income of 24 major Internet information industries in the world has doubled in one year, reaching nearly $3 billion. IT is estimated that the scale of IT consulting market will increase from165438+ 106 billion in 1999 to 648 billion in 2003. In this form, China's IT consulting market has to be optimistic.
