Welcome to the November 2006 issue of Offshore Insights. We continue to track the Services Globalization industry to provide you with the latest news, views and trends that shape the way services are purchased, delivered and managed around the world.

As clients increased their use of services globalization, many are moving from a single outsourcing vendor to a multi-vendor strategy. When implemented successfully a multi-vendor sourcing approach can help to reduce costs, lower risks and increase operational efficiency.

This month’s white paper provides insights into the advantages of multi-sourcing and the inherent pitfalls that can occur as companies struggle to effectively manage an increasingly complex services globalization model. The report includes a case study of a fictional company as it transitions from a single vendor to a multi-vendor sourcing strategy.
