How AI Is Changing IT Labor Rates and IT Services Economics

The impact of AI on IT labor rates is one of the most common questions facing sourcing leaders, CIOs and service providers. Yet current market evidence suggests AI's most significant economic effect is not on the price of labor but on the amount of labor required to deliver a business outcome.

Know What IT Services Should Cost

ISG ProBenchmark is a real-time price benchmarking and market intelligence platform for IT, BPO and network services.

It helps enterprises and service providers assess whether a proposed or existing transaction is competitively priced, understand the cost of different delivery models and make better commercial decisions.

 

With ISG ProBenchmark, teams can:

  • Benchmark proposed solutions against current market price ranges

  • Monitor existing outsourcing transactions as services and market conditions change

  • Compare labor mix, automation and delivery assumptions

  • Benchmark AI-specialized roles and evolving service models

  • Model the impact of these changes on total contract value

For enterprises, ISG ProBenchmark helps validate pricing and identify opportunities to improve sourcing outcomes.

For service providers, it helps build more competitive proposals based on current market intelligence.
