1 PRESS RELEASE HR Software and Services in France in Good Health Paris, October 2007 The software and services market in Human Resources continues to rise and confirms trends from previous years. The year 2006 saw a growth of 7.7% for a market volume of 1.4M. Several evolutionary factors explain these trends; they are regulatory, economic (demographic shock, mergers/acquisitions), organisational, or technological in nature.

The HR outsourcing market continues to rise at a high rate (+9%). On the publishing end, remarkable growth has been noted in licence sales (7.3%), due to the sale of expanding functions in the customer base, stock renewal, as well as the development of the SMB market. In 2006, integration projects in the Public sector fuelled growth. As the most dynamic sector, Administration continues to modernise its HR Information Systems; likewise, the Private sector has remained rather active, thanks to sectors such as Commerce or Services. The Industry sector has maintained its investments, and the Utilities sector has organised its HRP (Human Resource Planning). PAC 2007 HR Software and Services in France in Good Health page 2
