Abstract
The Americas market for workforce management solutions was estimated to be in excess of $1 billion dollars in 2005, and is forecast to reach over $1.7 billion dollars by 2010.

The introduction of talent management, coupled with the rapidly increasing need for scheduling and optomisation, has spawned a host of new, small to medium sized software providers across a number of vertical markets. This provides significant growth potential for workforce management solutions in the Americas region.
