What’s the best way to not only drive – but accelerate – the use of Intelligent Automation (IA) across your company? While many enterprises and global business services organizations have begun experimenting with IA – and a few have established Centers of Excellence (CoEs) to secure the right capabilities – most are still struggling with how to fast-track its adoption organization-wide. In this webinar, we will provide insights on the top factors that have the greatest impact in helping companies reach an adoption tipping point.
Everest Group’s Ashwin Ventakasen will be joining other speakers from HCL and Intel in this 45-minute webinar hosted by HCL to discuss how corporate/enterprise leaders need to stay open and receptive to embracing technologies for creating new-age workplaces that address future challenges and opportunities while ensuring employee safety, productivity and performance.

It’s no secret that COVID-19 has been one of the most significant disruptors of our time – and global services delivery has not escaped the impact.
In this webinar, we move beyond commiseration and conjecture and provide a fact-based view of the already-visible effects of the pandemic based on our extensive tracking of outsourcing deals, new global business / shared services centers, location-specific trends, and service provider developments.
Our experts will take a deep dive into the implications of these developments on your future delivery and locations strategies, such as key changes to delivery portfolios, trends in onshoring vs. offshoring, locations portfolio consolidation vs. diversification, rise in large scale hubs vs. small scale centers, and adoption of a remote / work from home delivery model.
The webinar will also provide perspectives on how your organization can benefit from a design-principles-led locations portfolio approach to account for the increasing complexity of locations decisions.
What questions will the webinar answer?
How has COVID-19 impacted outsourcing and offshoring services?
How do global enterprises seem to be changing their delivery strategies (e.g., sourcing model, shoring mix, investments in digital and transformation)?
What changes are we already seeing in leverage of delivery locations (onshore/nearshore/offshore); how is things likely to change going forward?
What changes will we see in how enterprises orchestrate their delivery portfolios (e.g., integrate remote delivery, hubs vs. spokes vs. satellites, growth in tier-2/3 cities)?
How should firms navigate this massive disruption by going back to design principles?
Who should attend?

The Coronacrisis has required service providers to handle the turmoil of work from home, medical absenteeism, and an economic downturn. Some providers have fared better than others. In this interactive discussion we’ll talk about which suppliers are emerging as leaders and which suppliers are falling behind, and participants will share their experiences as they settle into the next normal.
Who should attend
Outsourcing category and supplier managers for BPO, IT services, and engineering services
What will you learn
Participants will discuss the characteristics that differentiate suppliers that successfully navigated the early days of the crisis; the current outsourcing market and attributes of a winning model; and, which providers are financially outperforming their peers.
The only price of admission is participation – attendees should be prepared to share their experiences and be willing to engage in discourse.
Participation is limited to enterprises (no service providers), and Everest Group must approve each attendance request to ensure an appropriate size and mix of participants.
