Serco wins 2013 global 100 services honour

MUMBAI, INDIA: Serco, a international service company has announced that it has been featured in the Global Services (GS) 100 list that recognises corporations for their leadership as an outsourcing player worldwide.

This is the third year Serco has been featured in the Global Services 100 list. The list reflects the diversity and overall landscape of the service provider community in terms of company sizes, countries of origin and countries of delivery, a company release said.

An initiative by Global Services Media, Global Services 100, now in its eighth year, presents a complete view of the dynamics of the most significant segments that make up the IT and business process outsourcing industry. The 2013 GS100 list represents companies that serve mature global clients through advanced global delivery models, have broad portfolio of service offerings or niche leadership, and have demonstrated business excellence. The study involves an extensive survey seeking both quantitative and qualitative information from service providers who voluntarily opt to participate.

Based on the four key criteria of performance and leadership, quality and maturity of customers, breadth of services offered, and spread of global delivery capabilities, the GS100 analytical model is a credible guide for buyers of business and technology services that assists them to identify the relevant vendor.

Says Ed Nair, editor, Global Services:"The global services market environment has been dynamic. While technology budgets continued to be constrained, organizations were clamoring to re-orient their IT and process management practices to include mobility, cloud, analytics, and social media. The GS100 service providers are the ones to quickly adjust to this new reality; the big differentiator is that these companies demonstrate the ability to deliver business outcomes.,"

Susir Kumar, CEO of Serco's Global BPO business said, "Our presence in the prestigious GS100 list is testimony to the relentless efforts our employees have taken time and again to provide world class services to companies globally, helping them to meet their business goals with utmost efficiency.
