Outsource An Outsourcing Success Story

Outsourcing is a tool that is underestimated by a lot of companies. The success story below is a good example of how a simple outsourcing requirement from one of our customers resulted in a complex and effective outsourcing contract.

Holistic Solutions

Eric Jackson, one of our customers based in the US, wanted to provide an audio transcription service to his customers. This service would allow customers to call a toll free number where they could leave a message. This message could then be transcribed from a digital file and stored in a place where customers could access it online. Mr. Jackson was clear about what he required for this business; a four part solution which would include web design, website/customer database hosting, an Interactive Voice Response solution, and transcription. However, he was unsure about which part of this solution was feasible to outsource and did not know enough about the capabilities of Indian service providers.

When Eric Jackson approached us at Outsource2india, we carried out a situational analysis, which is part of our 5 stage process. This took into account the type of customers and industry he was catering to as well as the solutions he planned on offering them. We discovered how we could create value in Mr. Jackson's business by combining our expertise in transcription services along with our technology center's capabilities in web design, web site hosting and customer data base hosting. This way we could provide a holistic solution to his outsourcing requirement.

Identifying the "outsourceable"

One of the key indicators of whether it is a good idea to outsource a particular function is to find out if the region you are outsourcing to has the requisite skills and expertise to handle the work. India's reputation as a technological leader and its popularity as a destination for software development and IT support are well known.

Each part of Mr. Jackson's solution could easily be outsourced as a wealth of similar work is carried out by professionals in India. Our technology center has extensive expertise in web design and custom software development. Based on Mr. Jackson's requirements a dual solution was proposed that would include both the customer "front end" website as well as the data transcription "back end" website.

Outsourcing the entire process to a single vendor has the advantage of ensuring continuity and involves less coordination. While most outsourcing ventures leave it to the client to take on the responsibility to manage the project, we at O2I manage the entire program. Mr. Jackson approached us with an outsourcing requirement and through communication with O2I, he realized the scope of what can be outsourced.
