For the third year running, Global Services recognizes Grupo ASSA as one of the 100 leading IT companies in the world

Grupo ASSA highlights its Outsourcing service offering with the BPT - Business Process Transformation - Model -, a business model developed in-house focused on the integration of People + Processes + Applications + Technology.

2010-08-21
BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA, August 21, 2010 (Press-News.org) Grupo ASSA, a Consulting and Outsourcing company that helps clients with their Business Process Transformation through Information Technology, was selected by Global Services for the third straight year among the world's 100 best Technology and Outsourcing services providers.

Every year, Global Services and the specialized Indian consultancy firm NeoAdvisory carry out a research study to determine and present a ranking of the world's best companies in the provision of global Technology and Outsourcing services.

"This recognition, achieved for the third straight year, is new confirmation of the quality and value of the outsourcing services that Grupo ASSA provides to over 40,000 end users. In addition, it strengthens the goal we have set for ourselves: to triple the size of our company over the next four years", highlights Fabián Berdiales, Grupo ASSA Vice president for Mexico and the company's outsourcing specialist.

Technology and Outsourcing services provided by Latin American companies to the rest of the world are currently the alternative selected by European and United States companies, in order to avail themselves of qualified resources, flexibility, and cultural and time zone affinity. More and more often, these economic powerhouses are leaning toward our region and doing without India as a provider.

This is the backdrop for the solid growth being experienced by Grupo ASSA, which a few months back received a U$D 20 million investment from the IFC (International Finance Corporation), the World Bank Group's private sector investment arm, and HSBC Latin America Partners, a private equity fund managed by HSBC Capital, to back the company's business expansion plans.

Grupo ASSA highlights its Outsourcing service offering with the BPT - Business Process Transformation - Model -, a business model developed in-house focused on the integration of People + Processes + Applications + Technology.


WHAT WAS MEASURED
To conduct this research study, Global Services analyzed companies from 18 countries. The selection criteria included:

• Excellence in Management: includes sales, growth, profitability, expansion, mergers & acquisitions, headcount, thought leadership, capacity to innovate, excellence in marketing, quality of leadership, employee profiles, risk management, human resources practices and policies, as well as various other productivity indicators.
• Client Maturity: current and new clients, vertical industries, geographies covered, sectorial diversity, contract size, case studies, project complexity, important clients won, etc.
• Global Delivery Maturity: global delivery footprint, type of work carried out, expansion, end-user growth.
• Breadth of Service Offering: scope of capabilities and service offering through ITO and BPO, domain experience in vertical markets, participation models, supplier management practices, new capabilities and services offered, category leadership, capacity to serve niche markets, etc.

"2009 was a difficult year for the outsourcing industry. Service providers included in the GS100 are characterized by their capacity to resist and overcome economic recession, the capacity to retain market leadership, and the flexibility to play given the current rules of the game in the industry", stated Ed Nair, Editor of Global Services.
