The New Digital Workforce in IT-Projects
The use of junior consultants relieving the burden on seniors

             2/3 of the external consultants in IT projects are experienced senior consultants (especially in the fields of PMO, Business Analysis,
             Application Management and Testing, SAP Development and Mainframe).
             Day rates for senior specialists are on average almost £700 compared to starting rates of £350 for Juniors.
             Offshoring is an adequate tool for clearly structured and documented processes, but 70% of IT tasks require specialized and company-
             specific know-how that require cost-effective local resources.

             Seniors often undertake day-to-day tasks                                                   Senior consultants are not 100% more
