ZDNet reports that Walmart is the biggest corporate spender on IT, followed by Bank of America, Citigroup, AT&T and JPMorgan Chase.
The story says that a new analysis by IDC "breaks IT spending down into five technology categories: hardware, software, IT services, telecom services, and internal IT spend.
On average, these companies allocate about one-third of their technology spending to internal IT and telecommunications staff salaries and benefits ... IDC did not include the exact amount Walmart or the other top spenders dished out on IT during 2014. But in general terms, the report indicates that nine out of the top 10 companies wound up increasing their IT spend from 2013 to 2014."
