Abstract
This IDC Market Presentation provides our latest research on the resource and energy markets in Canada. In 2023, the oil and gas and resource sector stands out for its acute awareness of potential energy shortages, with 20% of companies ranking it as their top risk — double the concern level of other Canadian businesses. Geopolitical tensions have heightened the importance of data sovereignty, while the energy sector leads in technology spending. Digital transformation aligns with resource firms' core objectives. However, supply chain challenges persist, and datacenter limitations pose concerns. Budgets remain stable despite inflation and geopolitical uncertainties. Resource companies adopt a diversified outsourcing approach, while energy firms prioritize price negotiations and flexibility in payment terms.
