Beyond the Hype: BPO Success Stories in Asia-Pacific

Tom Reilly
CEO Capgemini Business Services (Asia)Capgemini

Executive-level interest in business process outsourcing (BPO) reached an all time high in 2004. The reasons for this new interest are simple. First, a number of high-profile BPO deals were signed by large organizations around the world. Second, the delivery capabilities and success stories of ‘offshore’ BPO providers have finally reached ‘industrial strength’.As with any new business practice, BPO is surrounded by a fair amount of ‘Hype’ and confusion surrounding “BPO”. To demystify ‘BPO’, Tom will share three well established case studies in the Asia- Pacific region.
