The results of the 2011 survey signal that a little more optimism is in the air compared to the 2010 edition. Case in point: consumer goods companies are cautiously growing IT budgets rather than trying to recover what was lost in years prior. Areas such as ERP, CRM, BI and web analytics are getting more dollars. And in supply chain, improving internal coordination and corporate agility by any \"practical\" means necessary takes top priority.
In the full 2011 Tech Trends Report, Gartner analysts will dive deeper into each of these areas, and you'll also get a more rounded view of what to expect from emerging market influences, like the mobile consumer.

With existing margins and complexity, it is a significantly difficult period for the leadership team and governance processes in any consumer goods company, hence the turnovers in leadership team ranks.
Change leadership, strategic thinking and planning, prioritization and governance are as important as ever. .

The 10th annual Consumer Goods Technology Tech Trends Study shows an unrelenting push for operational excellence and a commitment to continued investment in technology to improve business processes. Balancing customer demands with the realities of increasingly complex supply chains and increased costs has forced the industry to get closer to customer and consumer insights to more proactively meet demand. This study will touch upon the critical business processes and enabling technologies that are helping to meet those needs, including supply chain, customer management, new product development, performance management and the retail perspective.
\nWhat makes this study so valuable is the analysis that our partner AMR Research provides. Until April when I joined CGT, I was part of the team at AMR Research that provided the industry perspective and wrote the commentary, and it has given me great pleasure to once again work with the talented analysts at AMR to bring these insights to the marketplace.
