 remain powerful drivers of federal spending on information technology in FY 2007, but the forces of IT systems consolidation, IT security initiatives, Lines of Business (LoB) initiatives, and a new focus on health information technology have begun to dominate new budget requests. Based on the most recent request to Congress, a much more modest growth is expected over the long term. The dramatic increases that were seen in federal IT spending during the past five years are clearly at an end.

This report analyzes the trends outlined in the federal agency FY 2007 information technology (IT) budget requests. Based on our observation of the federal IT procurements and recent long-range IT plans, this report forecasts spending trends related to technology, acquisition processes and regulations. The report also notes key program developments that will shape the size and direction of this important marketplace.
