Aberdeen – Capgemini Study Finds Companies Using BPO Procurement as a Growth Enabler
Companies that are outsourcing procurement work are lowering costs and easing the workload in their organization, according to a new Aberdeen benchmark report, ‘The Procurement Outsourcing Benchmark Report’, sponsored by Capgemini.
20 June 2006
The survey examines the reasons companies outsource procurement and the benefits
they receive. In addition, the survey reveals the reasons many companies are not
outsourcing procurement; chief among these is a perceived loss of control. The
Aberdeen survey also found that - at least among companies that are already outsourcing
some of their procurement work - more functions and processes will be outsourced
over the next 12 months.
BPO Procurement is a powerful tool for many companies who are trying to focus
their efforts on strategic initiatives, increase their flexibility and aggressively
deliver savings. The findings of Aberdeen’s research confirm these benefits as
well as the ability to use outsourcing in a pointed manner to avoid disruption
and provide a platform for further expansion.
Capgemini works with clients to understand their goals and how they can leverage
prior process and technology investments into an intelligent strategy that includes
BPO Procurement. Capgemini’s team is currently delivering BPO Procurement to several clients
as part of multi year partnerships.
