Xerox, ADP repeat their No. 1 and No. 2 rankings, respectively, and Accenture edges out Teleperformance to claim No. 3 ranking among world’s largest third-party BPS providers
Everest Group, a consulting and research firm focused on strategic IT, business services, and sourcing, has released the second annual edition of “The Everest Group BPS Top 50™,” a ranking of the world’s largest third-party providers of business process services (BPS). The list was launched in 2015 as the first of its kind for the global industry, which is valued at more than US$150 billion. The Everest Group BPS Top 50 ranks the largest BPS service providers by revenue and reports their growth and coverage cutting across geography,
domain and buyer size.
Everest Group estimates there are more than 200 service providers with more than US$50 million in revenues offering BPS services around the globe.
“This industry is vitally important to the global economy, but no reference point of leadership existed until we launched The Everest Group BPS Top 50 last year,” said Rajesh Ranjan, partner at Everest Group. “This ranking, the only one of its kind in the industry, helps enterprises identify the largest providers and their functional coverage, and it helps service providers compare themselves against others in the industry.
“Starting this year, we are also looking at key year-to-year changes in the list and offering associated analyses to help stakeholders understand the broad dynamics of growth and success in this industry.”
