The first table below looks at the demand for knowledge and experience of Microsoft products and/or services in IT contracts advertised for the Cheshire region. Included is a guide to the average contractor rates offered in IT contracts that have cited Microsoft over the 3 months to 19 June 2013 with a comparison to the same period in the previous 2 years.
