The following theorem is proved. Let f: X → Y be a finite-to-one map such that the restriction $f|f^{-1}(S)$ is an inductively perfect map for every countable compact set S ⊂ Y. Then Y is a countable union of closed subsets $Y_i$ such that every restriction $f|f^{-1}(Y_i)$ is an inductively perfect map.
