Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to determine the causes of the low performance companies operating in the information technology sector, as a key driver of the Romanian economy. A model was designed to extract the productivity distribution of the sectorpsilas companies based on a data set from the Romanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.Through the statistical analysis of this particular sub-sample, some characteristics have been derived and tested for significance. At the same time, a benchmark value for productivity has been identified which can offer an immediate indication for potential trouble zones when assessing an existing or a newly-established (founded) company.
