Dell and Perot... and Google

I've been banging on about the provision of services (BPO and ITO) over the cloud. As we see increased consolidation amongst the hardware manufacturers and their generally smaller services brethren, the news yesterday that Perot Systems is being acquired for a 68% premium by Dell raises questions; and eyebrows.Perot is still strong in the US, but its European business has suffered death from a thousand cuts. I…See More

Aligned contracting - the right way to deal

I've been giving a lot of thought into why clients and outsourcing service providers fall out and I think that in most cases, it comes down to different expectations; i.e. each party provides misaligned inputs leading to misaligned outcomes.



I've talked before about how outsourcing is mostly about guessing. The service BPO/ITO provider guesses what the client wants and what the competitive organisations are going to charge. The client in turn guesses what services are going to be… Continue

Is LPO the way to go?

There is a quiet revolution taking place in the legal market. At the moment, it is being kept hush hush because lawyers in the US, Australia and the UK are moving some of their "turn the handle" grunty back-office processes offshore - mainly to India. Of course, the reason they're keeping it quiet is that they're still charging top dollar/pound/euro to clients for these same services.



So far, so capitalist.

TPI, Harbingers of Doom... in a good way

At last, some realism is leaking into the market; fetid and rank it may be, but like all good boils, this one really needs lancing.



The latest research from TPI does not make happy reading for the outsourcing service provider and sourcing advisory/consulting communities. The message is simple; information technology outsourcing (ITO) is in the dolrums and business process outsourcing (BPO) has fallen off a cliff.



Providers have returned woeful results. Total contract… Continue
