"There is a recognition in large companies that outsourcing as a means to reduce costs has had its time; these companies are increasingly looking at service providers being able to make their operations more effective globally and even to transform key areas of their business. The GS100 companies are the ones who are delivering on these fronts and are equipped to demonstrate new forms of value in outsourcing to their clients," says Atul Vashistha, Chairman, NeoAdvisory.
The GS100 Methodology
Companies who opted to participate in the survey were asked to share exhaustive information through an online survey done during 04/10 and 05/10. The top 100 list and the names in the categories are derived using a scientific research methodology based on over 200 data points and several qualitative parameters.
The GS100 model for analysis is based on four primary pillars:
- Management Excellence (includes revenue, growth, profitability, expansion, M&A, headcount, thought leadership, innovation capability, marketing excellence, leadership quality, resource profile, risk management measures, HR practices and policies, and several other performance indicators)
- Customer Maturity (paying customers, new customers, verticals represented, geographies represented, sectoral diversity, contract sizes, customer case studies, complexity of projects, marquee clients, important wins, etc.)
- Global Delivery Maturity (global delivery footprint, type of work done, expansions, headcounts, growth in headcounts)
- Breadth of Services Portfolio (breadth of capabilities and service offerings across ITO and BPO, domain expertise across verticals, engagement models, vendor management practices, new capabilities and services launched, category leadership, ability to serve niche markets, etc.) A weighted scoring scheme was used to rate each of the above areas based on a scoring scheme designed by a panel from Global Services' and NeoAdvisory's practice experts
