Submit sites related to outsourcing services.

Outsourcing involves turning a function traditionally managed within a business over to a third-party service provider. Support services and product development are typical of the types of services outsourced.
When the third-party provider is based in another country, the arrangement is called offshoring, or offshore outsourcing.

Business Process

Please submit only sites dealing business process outsourcing (BPO) that provide services in multiple areas. If a company only provides a specific service (such as human resources, finance, or sales), submit the website to the appropriate category listed beneath Outsourcing.

Companies involved in business process outsourcing (BPO) provide multiple outsourcing services including human resources, sales, back office, and finance.

Consulting

This category specifically covers consultants that offer consulting services to enable clients to outsource some of their current functions.
To qualify as "outsourcing", the client must already have assets and personnel to perform the current functions. The client must intend to transfer these assets and personnel to an external service provider.
To qualify as "consulting", the consultant must provide advice to clients on outsourcing, as defined above.
Consultants may also be outsourcing service providers.
As a guide, the following are likely to be rejected as outsourcing consultants: - advertising agencies, as they do not usually advise on the outsourcing of existing internal functions. - software developers, as they may supplement existing SD functions, without acquiring their clients' assets and personnel.

Management

If your site is not specifically geared towards this topic, please submit to the proper category.

Submitting to the wrong category will delay and/or prevent your site from being listed in the directory.

Submission Tips:
When writing your site's title please ensure it is the same as your organization.

When writing your site's description please tell what your site offers in a clear and concise statement without hype or promotional language.

Thank-you for your cooperation.
