FROM have deprived 0,5 mlrd results of competition of Minkomsvjazi under biopassports are cancelled

The federal antimonopoly service has made the decision on stay of placing of the state order for technical support and operation of an interdepartmental segment of the state system of manufacturing, registration and the control of passport and visa documents of new generation (biopassports) in 2009 On it CNews has informed. Maria Schneider. , the assistant to director FGUP scientific research institute the Rising, serving system now. We will remind, in competition on its support, which results of Minkomsvjazi has brought on July, 17th, 2009, the company Open technologies 98. Decision FAS was acccepted by results of consideration of the complaint of Rising (is available at the disposal of CNews), the service directed to the head. To Igor Artemyev.

On July, 16th, 2009 the Reason of cancellation of results of competition – discrepancy of the competitive documentation 94 FZ. FAS has decided to cancel competition reports, to return demands to its participants and to hold new competition. It is possible to familiarise with the complaint text. According to Rising, for example, Minkomsvjazi has incorrectly chosen a way of placing of the order – according to the order of the government of the Russian Federation the service provider on technics maintenance service should get out by auction, instead of competition. Besides, the specified place of performance of works – Moscow and Moscow Region - does not correspond to a place of actual carrying out of these works, is told in the document. One more point of the complaint is curious. To participation in competition copany LISSI which has not given to the information on the qualification has been admitted that, according to Rising contradicts the most competitive documentation. This company has played a key role in competition summarising.

In the demand it has dropped initial cost of the contract more than in 33 times – with 512 to 15 million, having made criterion of the price of the contract much less significant. Thus, the demand of Open technologies with the 495 million price could outstrip the demand of Rising with the price of 197 million Conclusion of the complaint of Rising en face is reduced to the following: it is obvious that the essential part from the criteria of an estimation of competitive demands specified by the customer is directed not so much on revealing of the most qualitative offer and the qualified participant, how many on artificial reduction of applicants for a victory. In Minkomsvjazi at the moment of the material publication could not comment on decision FAS and answer questions CNews. The information on when new competition will take place, in Rising have no, but say that will take in it part. In company Tehnoserv which also were taking part in cancelled competition, comments have refused.

In Open technologies CNews have declared that the company will be ready to give comments concerning decision FAS only after reception of the official notice from FAS and acquaintance with it.

As to participation in new competition if that will be declared, we will familiarise with its conditions and after that we will make the decision on participation or nonparticipation in it, - have informed also in Open technologies.

We will remind that after competition of Minkomsvjazi has spent auction on service of a hardware infrastructure of system of registration of biopassports in 2009 By its results a victory also the company Open technologies (the contract sum - almost 200 million rub). The scientific research institute participating in auction FGUP Rising did not begin to struggle for the contract and to lower the price, having explained it to that the winner of auction becomes in direct dependence on the winner of the previous competition. I. e.

, in case of a victory in new competition of the Rising, Open technologies will appear in an uneasy situation – they should provide the equipment support which part is physically located in territory FGUP scientific research institute Rising. Since yesterday Rising of an interdepartmental segment of system of registration of biopassports also intends to support its work up to the conclusion of the contract with the new executor when it would not take place. Review CNews prepares for the publication.

IDC Cheap personal computers return the market to growth

In 2nd quarter 2009, as well as in first three months of year, the personal computer world market has shown hardly the best results, than researchers IDC that hzs a little underestimated their fears concerning crisis scales expected. The volume of deliveries of the personal computer after all world (including desktop and mobile computers and without servers of x86 th architecture) for this period has decreased on 3,1 % in comparison with 3rd quarter 2008 is twice more low before expected IDC falling on 6,3 %. In all regions of the world indicators on personal computer deliveries have coincided with expectations of analysts or have surpassed them. In spite of the fact that crisis still aloud affects all IT Market, its consequences were softened with the personal computer market on which preferences of buyers were displaced from more productive cars aside easier, mobile and budgetary.

Portable personal computers have served as the basic engine of the market of computers in 2nd quarter of this year, mark in IDC. Such results – very positive sign for second half of year, - makes comments. Loran Lovard.

From IDC. – We see proceeding demand from outside the consumer market and the limited influence of various factors, namely maintenance of balance of warehouse stocks, on channels of sales. Release of new products in 2nd half of year in a combination to seasonal growth and higher degree of consumer confidence (the economy based, in particular, on the state stimulation, revival in the market of the inhabited real estate, rather stable share market and interest rates, and also progress in automobile and financial branches) should return the market to growth by the end of this year. Top-5 world manufacturers of the personal computer, 2nd quarter 2009 (preliminary results, in thousand piece, not including servers x86). A source: IDC, on July, 15th, 2009 But in spite of the fact that the personal computer market surpasses expectations of analysts IDC already the second quarter successively, its growth brakes low activity in the corporate market.

Business does not hasten to leave money, as a result in the given segment there are no those price wars and aspiration to new portable devices, as in a consumer sector. Despite appreciable reduction of volumes of the market in comparison with the same period of last year, the market of the USA has shown quarter growth above an average that it is possible to consider as a sign of stabilisation and improvement of a market situation, - marks. Bean O'Donnell. (Bob O’Donnell) from IDC.

– but in spite of the fact that quarter growth can be a restoration sign, the aiming at cheap personal computers and minilaptops, most likely, will lower market volume.

According to the expert, the market continues tto rely on a consumer sector, activity of a corporate segment is low. In 2nd half of year, under forecasts O'Donnella, the situation will change a little: growth of the corporate market of the personal computer is expected not earlier than 2011 Top-5 Manufacturers of the personal computer to the USA, 2nd quarter 2009 (preliminary results, in thousand piece, not including servers x86).

A source: IDC, on July, 15th, 2009 the personal computer Market in the USA for 2nd quarter was reduced to 3 %. It was narrowed and in region EMEA (Europe, the Near East and Africa). In Japan personal computer deliveries were reduced more slowly, than it was supposed, - growth indicators in pogodovom comparison here have considerably improved in comparison with 1st quarter. In Asian-Pacific region the volume of deliveries of the personal computer was above portable devices expected at the expense of a segment, especially in South East Asia. High indicators here at China, and results of India have almost coincided with forecasts IDC. After several quarters of decrease in volumes of deliveries here growth again has started to be observed.

We will remind that other researchers speak about restoration of the market of the personal computer in 4th quarter also. So, in the recent reporrt iSuppli that during this period pobemy personal computer deliveries in the world year by a year will grow on 3,6 %. The trend will proceed and in 2010 Following the results of next year world sales of personal computers will grow on 4,7 % in comparison with 2009 of Everything, by estimations iSuppli, in 2009 in the world will be sold 287,3 million computers that on 4 % it is less in comparison with 299,2 million last year. Before experts from iSuppli predicted growth of sales on 0,7 %.

To similar conclusions analysts Gartner have come also.

Under their forecasts, the personal computer world market to positive dynamics in 4th quarter 2009, and in 2010 sales volume growth will make 10 %. Everything, by calculations Gartner, in 2009 in the world it will be sold 274 million personal computers that on 6 % it is less in comparison with last year (292 million).

In total for this period in region it will be realised less 0,5 million servers, approximately on 30 % it is less, than last quarter. In 1st quarter 2009 each sector of economy has felt on itself influence of a world economic crisis: almost all countries of Western Europe were captured by recession, and economy of countries of Eastern Europe will be paralysed frequently by shortage of credits, - makes comments.

Nataniel Martinez. (Nathaniel Martinez), heading in IDC the program of researches of the European systems and infrastructural decisions.

- IDC has lowered the forecast that speaks influence of going deep recession on the server matket. A sales volume of servers in region EMEA and the growth forecast, 2008-2013 (in $mln). A source: IDC, June, 2009 By words. Beatriz Valle. (Beatriz Valle), analytics IDC on the server market of Europe, recession has various scale and the form depending on the country.

Among seriously suffered from recession - the server market of Great Britain, and continental Europe goes by same means. In second half of 2009 The market will continue to show falling in comparison with similar indicators of 2008, - continues Valle.

- It will be more strongly expressed in monetary indicators, than in quantitative, because of the tendency to decrease in average cost prices which has begun even before recession.

Nevertheless, the analyst predicts that rates of decrease in sales volumes of servers will in money terms be slowed down next four quarters. However growth of sales will return on server market EMEA not earlier than 3rd quarter 2010 In money terms a bottom will be reached in 1st quarter 2010 on a mark in $2,6 billion In IDC are assured that restoration of consumer demand this autumn will begin: its splashes though also moderated, become appreciable in 2nd half of 2009 The receipt of x86 servers, predictably, will start to show positive dynamics earlier, than in other segments. Its recession in 1st quarter 2009 will be measured less than 10 % - basically, for the account sementa blejd-servers and consolidation of infrastructures. Strengthening of consolidation, requirement for ordering of an infrastructure and budgetary restrictions will define character of demand for servers, - believes. Dzhorzhio Nebuloni. (Giorgio Nebuloni), analyst IDC on the market of the European systems and infrastructural decisions. - on the other hand, sales not x86 servers will return to growth in 2nd half of 2010 thanks to increase of demand for scale infrastructural projects. Sales of mass servers will grow slower rates: from $1,6 mlrd in 2nd quarter 2009 to $1,7 mlrd in 3rd quarter 2010 of Sale of high-efficiency servers and cars of an average price category will start to grow only in 1st quarter 2011 Let's remind that recently IDC the similar forecast on the world market of servers.

Prroceeding from it, it is possible to tell that region EMEA will divide universal tendencies of development of the market.

Besides, started the test project from State Unitary Enterprise Mosgortrans, that is the card can be used now and as the land ticket. One more problem of the project a card of the pupil - safety of schoolboys: for the past years many establishments have been equipped by access monitoring systems. The rationing system not only cuts visits of strangers to schools, but also helps to watch attendance. It was supposed that the card can be used and as storehouse of the personal medical data, and as an electronic diary, and as a library ticket in library.

Initially the project developed with personal support of the mayor of Moscow. Jury Luzhkov. , which in 2007 has signed the city target program on the further development of the project for 2007-2009 It was supposed that by 2010 to a rationing systtem will pass all schools, the director of the information-analytical centre of Department of formation of a city of Moscow has told CNews.

Vladimir Yablonsky. For realisation of city system of school cards, as he said, it is already spent about 200 million Now the project has not only the proved economic benefit, but also a strong social exhaust. Scale work with parents and pupils is spent, they have believed in the project, - Yablonsky speaks. As he said, parents of pupils first of all on advantage have estimated system of clearing settlements for a food. The volume of translated means for accounts of schoolboys for 1 quarter 2009 grew in a geometrical progression and has made over 2 million in comparison with 70 thousand in 4 quarter 2008 However for 2009 the budget of the innovative project it has appeared is equal to zero. Before it was formed of the means allocated with Department of formation and Management of information of the government of Moscow. Financing of the project the Card of the pupil has been suspended, though in a city budget of Moscow within the limits of city target programs of means for it are planned, Yablonsky speaks. The most perspective innovative project zabuksoval because of interdepartmental nesostykovok, - is considered by the deputy of Moscow City Council from fraction an United Russia. Stepan Orlov.

As a result of absence of money competitions on performance of works on project support in 2009 are not held In this connection educational institutions cannot continue work with system in new 2009-2010 educational year. Besides, training to work with cards of employees of educational institutions and industrial complexes of a school food is stopped. Yablonsky is afraid that if the situation with financinng will not change, efforts of last years on development of system of school cards will be simply crossed out.

As a whole, predictably, volume of the server market in 2009 Will decrease on 22,1 % in money terms and on 18,3 % - in quantitative expression in comparison with 2008 we Will remind that experts Gartner result similar forecasts: they expect that will be difficult for all server market 2009, and to return to growth till 2010 to it hardly it will be possible. We will remind that till now their colleagues from IDC were more optimistical: they first signs of restoration of demand in a server segment in 4th quarter of this year. In Gartner the worst for all history of the server market named 1st quarter of this year, but estimations for 2nd quarter yet have not published.

The personal computer market has fallen below level of crash a pillbox-komov

According to the data of research IDC, for first three months of current year the world market of the personal computer which includes desktop computers, laptops, ultraportable and minilaptops, has failed on 6,8 %. For last eight years this most is considerable falling though preliminary forecasts of analysts of the company are slightly wlrse.

The market divee downwards softens a growing segment of minilaptops a little. The volume of deliveries of this equipment in the first quarter 2009 g/has made 5,7 million pieces ($2,2 mlrd in money terms) and was above expectations of analysts. But sales of traditional laptops havee decreased on 3,1 million units (or on $8,4 mlrd) in comparison with the similar period of last year. The forecast of analysts is in this respect that: growth of a share of minilaptops in total amount of deliveries of the personal computer to 9,5 % in 2009 will promote gain decrease on 17,7 % even if the volume of deliveries will decrease all on 3,2 %. From the positive moments – situation stabilisation in the mature markets of the USA and the Western Europe which have undergone before to considerable recession is observed.

Here the consumer demand was supported by reduction of prices. However further experts predict no more than 1 % of growth for the market of the USA in 2010, for Europe – rates of increase at level of 11 % will be restored not earlier than 2011, is told in the report. Volume of deliveries of the personal computer in 2008 g, the forecast for 2009-2013 (million pieces). A source: IDC. In Asian-Pacific region a picture essentially other.

As the governments of the countries o this region actively invest in infrastructure modernisation also the market feels stably: in 2010 12 %-s' growth is expected. On emerging markets also other picture, mark in IDC: rates of decrease in deliveries are impressing.

The matter is that a lack of proceeds of credit, devaluation of national currencies, as consequence reduction of resources for financing of chains of deliveries.

It is characteristic, including, and for the Eastern Europe. Rates of increase of the market of the personal computer in 2008 g, the forecast for 2009-2013 (millin pieces). A source: IDC.

About the same tendencies are marked and in Russia. So, for example, sales of laptops in the local market already on 30 %.

Virtualizacijа has grasped servers and SHD

Servers (32 %), data storage systems (SHD) (24 %) and possibility of reduction of expenses (10,3 %) – here with what, first of all, associates virtualizacijа at the European IT Experts interrogated by company NettApp. Reduction of costs (24,8 %) and flexibility of management (20,3 %) have been named among the basic priorities in motivation of the companies at transition to the virtual environment.

Andreas Kenig. (Andreas Kenig), the senior vice-president and the general director of division NetApp EMEA, considers that superiority of servers in this associative to a number is absolutely natural, as virtualizacijа servers defines, how IT Managers project and realise IT Decisions. That on the second place there were data storage systems, in its opinion, confrms the tendency to transformation of a data storage in a key variable of the equation for virtualizovannoi environments.

Respondents thus notice that SHD in virtual environments should possess a number of characteristics. Among the most important - high readiness (21,9 %), productivity (21,9 %), emergency restooration (18,8 %) and efficiency SHD (17,7 %). It is necessary to place the basic emphasis On these parametres in any virtualizovannoi to environment, - makes comments on Kenig. – the Enterprises which use virtual infrastructures in the activity, should be assured that they can quickly and effectively provide a continuity of business processes.

At transition to the virtual environment of the company count on economy and flexibility in management.

As have shown results of questioning, the dominant role in increase of efficiency of storehouses in the virtual environment is played by two technologies: dedublikacijа (31,7 %) and technology snyеpshotov (instant pictures) (26,3 %). Really, according to NetApp, with the help dedublikacii data-processing centres can reduce to 50 % requirement for disk space for cores SHD wnd to 95 % - for reserve.

Let's remind that at technology virtualizacii in Europe traditionally strong positions. As recent research IDC, use of this technology in Europe not only essentially influences the server market, but also is (and will be) basic at designing and management of data-processing centres (COD). According to IDC, in 2008 for the first time in history the market of x86 servers in Europe it has been sold more than virtual cars, than physical. The new alignment of forces is promoted by crisis, and in the future rupture between the given categories will increase only.

Analysts cut down IT Budgets, but any more will not be

As has shown new interrogation Gartner, in 1st quarter of this year IT Directors had to reconsider the budgets as business formed the approach to overcoming of world financial crisis. In interrogation which passed from March, 1st till April, 30th, participated nearby 900 CIO from the different countries of the world. According to respondents, as a whole on their IT Budgets it was necessary over $77 billion 46 % of IT Directors have noticed that in the beginning of year their budgets for 2009 have been changed: in 42 % of cases are reduced, in 4 % - are increased.

54 % of respondents have declared that their IT Budget has not undergone changes. Thus over 90 % of the companies which have reduced the IT Budget in 1st quarter of this year, cut down it on the average on 7,2 % from originally planned level. To judge scale of changes, in Gartner result results of similar interrogation in which from September till December of last year have taken part over 1,5 thousand CIO. Then they expected that IT Budgets of their companies for 2009 Remain at level of 2008 or will very little increase – by 0,16 %.

Now it is informed on decrease in IT Expenses on 4,7 % (in comparison with the budget confirmed in the end of the year) on the average on all sample of the interrogated. Thw world: influence of crisis on the company IT Budget. A source: Gartner, 2009 By words. Mark McDonald. (Mark McDonald), vice-president Gartner, CIO the IT Budgets, basically, at the expense of revision of cost of IT Contracts, and also personnel reduction cut down. Besides, they tried not to reduce, first of all, the investment into IT Projects, and to shift the work most part on shoulders of regular IT Experts and to postpone planned earlier capital expenses.

On increase in the IT Budget at 2009 – on the average on 2,2 % - have informed only IT direktory from public health services sector.

In all other vertical markets, on the contrary, in 1st quarter IT Budgets have been reduced.

Have been most strongly mentioned sector of professional services (-10 %), a TV set and IT (also-10 %), the industry (-8 %), housing and communal services (-4 %) and financial services (-4 %). The majority of IT Directors realise threat of the further reduction of IT Budgets this year, but consider such probability low. At the same time, quantity CIO, having the developed plan for a case of unforeseen circumstances, has grown twice in comparison with 2008 Such plans provide both reduction, and possible increase in IT Expenses. 44 % of IT Directors thus do not believe that they should take advantage of extreme plans, the others assume that such necessity can arise in the nearest half a year.

Russia: influence of crisis on the company IT Budget. A source: CNews Analytics, 2009 Interrogation has shown that IT direktory They expect restoration of economy somewhere in between 1st and 3rd quarter 2010 plan to increase at first signs of this restoration investments in IT and to type new employees. Money on ON, hardware and IT Infrastructure development also will be first of all. The heads of business making plans in 4th quarter 2008 , Have faced the uncertainty caused by begun economic crisis, - McDonald makes comments.

– taking into account the extreme plans developed by IT Directors, they are is better prepared now for the future changes in economy. Nevertheless, majority CIO do not expect a fast embodiment of these plans. It means that the companies do not plan till the end of 2009 of other updatings of IT Budgets, except already made in 1st quarter. As to priorities Russian CIO, that, according to spent CNews Analytics, more than half from them have confirmed IT Budget reduction for 2009 In comparison with 2008 it is curious that in 29 % the companies participating in research it has remained in former volume, and at 10 % even has a little increased.

The last are represented by players who managed to avoid accumulation of the big credit loading.

Now they aspire to strengthen the positions in the market (including meaning expansion and consolidation – at the expense of weak players).

In these companies continue to develop IT Infrastructures counting upon fast growth, and also to introduce necessary for business ON. From those respondents who has fixed IT Budget reduction, approximately at 13 % its volume was cut almost by half. 8 % have declared even more dramatic recession – on 70 %.

14 % interrogated have informed that the indicator has decreased within 25-40 %. Anna Zajtseva. , the analyst of UK Finam Management, confirms that in the Russian companies reduction of expenses on IT in the majority was spent already after acceptance of the initial budget. In many of them as a result there were long-term projects which have already been started, and also the projects directed on maintenance of current requirements of business, - she speaks. - expenses which have been focused on satisfaction of requirements of development of the company in the long term several years, as a rule, are postponed without day. As a matter of fact, now many comanies work with situational IT Budgets – the management is guided by a situation in economy, being ready how quickly to increase an expense on IT, and to go on their further reduction.

The number of introductions of control systems of projects in Russia in 2008 has grown in 1,5 times

Company PM Expert entering into group Armada, has summed up Internet interrogation Information control systems of projects – a choice of the Russian companies. The data received during interrogation, has allowed experts PM Expert to collect statistics of use of information control systems of projects (ISUP) the Russian business and to learn about principles by which the companies are guided at a choice of this or that system, to make full representation about current level of automation of design activity in commercial and official bodies of Russia, and also to define the basic prospects of development of the given direction.

According to analytical research, the quantity of introductions ISUP in Russia in 2008 in comparison with 2007 has grown in one and a half time, and in comparison with 2006 – more than in 3 times. Thus the Russian companies prefer to introduce and support systems independently. As to the overwhelming majority of respondennts (70 %) prefer decisions Microsoft Enterprise Project Management. On the basis of answers of respondents experts PM Expert have made the conclusion that use of information control systems by projects involves increase in quality indicators of work of the companies. The analysis of the data received during interrogation, also has revealed direct dependence between success of use ISUP and presence of standards and methodology of design management in the companies. The information control system of projects is the effective tool intended for automation of realisation of projects.

But its most effective use occurs only at understanding of methodology of design management, in the presence of the developed procedures, templates of documents etc. Interest to ISUP which has revealed the interrogation spent by us, speaks about readiness and desire of the companies of the Russian market to improve the design management, – has commented on results of interrogation the assistant to general director PM Expert.
