Outsourcing is and will continue to be a fundamental component of our global economy and aligns nicely with corporate desires to focus on core and strategic responsibilities while allowing other entities, with deeper skills and higher levels of scale, to assist with their operations.
And, similar to the functions that outsourcing enables, outsourcing processes must innovate and align to new realities.
