Polish SMEs facing longer hardware replacement cycles - July 2010

The replacement cycle of hardware in Polish medium sized companies has extended over the past five years. In the case of computers it now stands at 4,5 years. One third of SMEs use no IT services at all, while only approx. 4% of them declare to use EU funding for IT projects.

Between 2005 and 2010, the average number of computers for every company employing 50 to 249 staff grew by ten units, that is by 31%.

Currently, there are no large differences or dissimilarities among small and medium sized enterprises in Poland in terms of replacement cycle, which is about four and a half years on average. The frequency with which computers are replaced is proportional to income. In firms with earnings no higher than PLN 2m, computers are replaced less frequently (by a year) than in those with revenues of more than PLN 50m, where new computers are purchased every 4 years.

The article is based on the report “Software applications, ICT services and infrastructure for small and medium-sized enterprises in Poland 2010. Based on a survey of 800 Polish SMEs”.
