75％的公司預(yù)計(jì)明年在電子商務(wù)方面的支出預(yù)算將增加
B2B公司計(jì)劃在電子商務(wù)技術(shù)上花費(fèi)更多——75％的企業(yè)預(yù)計(jì)明年的支出預(yù)算將增加。B2B企業(yè)的高管對電子商務(wù)技術(shù)越來越看好，其中75％的企業(yè)希望明年能夠更多地投入這塊，F(xiàn)orrester Research在最近發(fā)布的一份研究報(bào)告中說。 去年研究報(bào)告中，這個(gè)數(shù)字是73%。
Forrester在2016年第二季度對大約100家B2B專業(yè)人士進(jìn)行了調(diào)查，并將其作為Forrester /互聯(lián)網(wǎng)零售商2016年第二季度全球B2B賣方調(diào)查的一部分。Forrester B2B電子商務(wù)副總裁兼首席分析師Andy Hoar在最近的一個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)研討會上介紹了這項(xiàng)研究的發(fā)現(xiàn)。
調(diào)查指出，第二季度有45％的受訪者表示計(jì)劃在18個(gè)月內(nèi)升級或更改他們的電子商務(wù)技術(shù)平臺，而2015年第二季度研究中引用類似計(jì)劃的受訪者為35％。
Forrester研究顯示，上述公司線上銷售的一部分投入將應(yīng)用到電子商務(wù)技術(shù)升級上。 這些公司表示，其2017年線上銷售額的9%將用于電子商務(wù)升級，而此前一年的調(diào)查比例僅為6%。
今年研究的調(diào)查受訪者表示，他們在技術(shù)投資上的首要目標(biāo)是建立電子商務(wù)平臺以及將電子商務(wù)與后端商業(yè)流程軟件系統(tǒng)的集成上。
以下是B2B電子商務(wù)專業(yè)人士在2016年引用其技術(shù)投資優(yōu)先級的百分比。
●電子商務(wù)平臺，57％
●集成電子商務(wù)平臺和后端技術(shù)，用于管理庫存和客戶訂單等操作，57％

75% of firms expect their spending budgets to increase next year.
Business-to-business executives are getting more bullish on e-commerce technology, with 75% of them expecting to spend more on it next year, Forrester Research Inc. says in a recently released study. That’s up from 73% a year earlier who said the same in a prior study.
Forrester compiled those and other figures in a second-quarter 2016 survey of about 100 B2B professionals as part of the Forrester/Internet Retailer Q2 2016 Global B2B Sell-Side Survey. Forrester conducts the annual survey in conjunction with Vertical Web Media, the publisher of B2BecNews and Internet Retailer.

The survey notes that 45% of respondents in the second quarter said they planned to upgrade or change their e-commerce technology platform within 18 months, up from 35% who cited similar plans in a second quarter 2015 study.
Companies are also spending more on e-commerce technology as a percentage of their online sales, Forrester says. Respondents in the 2016 study said they expect to spend 9% of online sales on e-commerce technology in 2017, up from 6% of online sales in 2016 as noted in the year-earlier study.
Survey respondents in this year’s study cited their top priorities for technology investment as e-commerce platforms and integration of e-commerce technology with back-end business operations software.
Following are the percentages of B2B e-business professionals who cited their priorities in technology investment for 2016 (respondents were requested to select all that apply):
