Anirban Dutta, director of Global Strategic Business Development at CSC

Anirban Dutta told Ann All of IT Business Edge that because of cloud technology, service providers will be focusing on pricing directly based on outcomes instead of using FTEs (full-time equivalents). Dutta says that customers are more invested in fully managed services that are using outcome-based service level agreements (SLAs).

Keshav R. Murugesh, group chief executive of outsourcing WNS Global Services

In a recent article appearing on Raconteur, Keshav Murugesh said, “gone are the days when outsourcing or the acronym BPO was synonymous with cost-cutting or labor arbitrage.” Murugesh believes instead that business process outsourcing is now business process management. Outsourcing is thought of less as a business transaction, and more as a cohesive system of employees. “…it is about partnering to drive better business outcomes leveraging the domain expertise of the partner, high-end technology and analytics. It is about partnering to ride disruptive business trends, which is a complete change from the humble beginnings of outsourcing for cost efficiency alone. Thus, the change in terminology as well – it is business process management now: managing processes efficiently and smartly to drive sustainable and profitable business growth.”

Raj Samani, chief technology officer for Europe, the Middle East and Africa at Intel Security

Cyber security has always been a high-level concern in the tech industry. Even with so many security advancements, there will always be risks. Samani believes that cyber security will continue to be a priority for many companies which could lead to outsourcing opportunities. “With many companies unable to fill key cyber-security roles, we will see an increase in businesses outsourcing security. Our research found that the most desirable skills are intrusion detection, secure software development and attack mitigation.”

Rebecca Eisner, partner in the Chicago office of law firm Mayer Brown

In a CIO article, Rebecca Eisner explains that integration continues to be a problem as technology advances. “Customers adopting an ever larger number of emerging digital technologies will face an ever-larger integration challenge. Many of the most powerful cloud technologies will require integration efforts comparable to those required to install ERP systems.” To succeed, many companies must look to outsourcing for service integration, incident management, and change management.
