3Executive Overview
- BPO A structured arrangement between an
organization and an outsourcing partner to
perform services, otherwise conducted in-house. - Until few years ago, BPO was a means to achieve
cost efficiencies in transaction intensive back
office business processes - This resulted in both tangible benefits like
reduction in cost, and intangible benefits such
as focusing on more strategic issues.
4Emerging face of BPO
- BPO is emerging as a key management tool, the
focus of which is expanding beyond the non-core
areas, giving an organization flexibility to
achieve a certain set of tactical and strategic
goals. - Organizations opt to undertake BPO because it
offers them advantages of cost, speed to market,
competitive capabilities, stimulus for growth and
both the time and space to focus on their own
core competencies. - As the scope of BPO increases, so does the level
of complexity involved in managing partnerships,
structuring deals, and capturing values.
Consequently, older paradigms of BPO no longer
hold true.
