26 Demand to remain firm Further investment in companies Catching up on previous underinvestment Technological innovation, spreading of embedded electronics Upgrade of information systems Numerous projects More outsourcing Increasingly complex projects Refocusing on core business Retirement of baby boomers Current issue: recruitment Problems with hiring in some skills Maintain quality and profitability criteria SII: 700 new engineers expected for 2007/08 Slight drop in turnover (22% to 17.5%) since the beginning of the FY Outlook for 2007/08
27
27 Almost stable pricing tariffs Demand-side pricing power Heavy competitive pressure Indirect pressure from offshore Scissors effect: selling prices – cost prices Wage pressure Shortage in some areas Outlook for 07/08 A restrictive “daily rate–skill–wage” comparison
