The IT Priorities Research Program is ZDNet's means of staying in very close touch with the technology plans of medium and large organizations. The program started in October 2002 and has been collecting data continuously since that time. The program is designed to provide a near-real-time snapshot of business technology initiatives over three time windows: Now, the next 12 months, and 18-24 months. Since we gather this information continuously, we possess nearly half a year of trailing data with a moving planning horizon of 24 months.

Once the top five areas are determined, our analysts look for the best information available and have that information validated by the professionals who participated in the survey research. Based on their input and continued monitoring of feedback, we modify and enhance the relevant topic sections of the site, article content, and specially created information toolkits. You can browse this month's toolkits below, and click here for more detail about the survey.
