Mainframe Computers Procurement Category Market Research Report from IBISWorld has Been Updated
PRWeb - Sun Sep 07, 2:10AM CDT
The mainframe computer market exhibits a buyer power score of 3.9 out of 5, representing moderately high buyer power. According to IBISWorld procurement analyst Dale Schmidt, "the market's structure heavily favors suppliers, but current price trends, increasing competition from substitutes and prevailing risk characteristics give buyers significant leverage." IBM operates a near-monopoly in the mainframe market, holding more than 90.0% market share. The remaining market is so small that only two other suppliers split it, Hewlett-Packard and Unisys. The low availability of suppliers drastically reduces buyer power, with IBM historically dictating market conditions. Computer servers have grown increasingly sophisticated over the past three years, though, making them a strong alternative for mainframe computers and, thus, increasing buyer power in the mainframe computer market. Server sophistication will continue to increase over the next three years, posing greater competition to mainframe computer suppliers.
