Federal Times: Federal, state and local government chief information officers must balance a need to invest in analytics, the internet of things and cloud resources while being pressured to reduce spending, according to a tech spending trends report by research and advisory firm Forrester.
Forrester projects federal technology budgets, bucking a three-year trend of growth and lagging well behind private-sector spending, will shrink by 0.1 percent in 2017 and 0.6 percent in 2018. Conversely, state and local spending could increase by 3 to 4 percent for each of those years.
