2023 Outsourcing Planning – Preparing for Work Model and Pricing Changes in a Looming Recession | Virtual Roundtable

The last few years have introduced significant change and uncertainty. The service delivery industry moved to a work from home model, then to hybrid, and now in many cases, is returning to the office. In parallel, we saw prices escalate as talent became harder to retain.

Now, as a potential recession looms, uncertainty remains, leaving business leaders with more questions than answers. Have price increases steadied? Is the hybrid model working in outsourcing? Will return to office (RTO) mandates impact attrition?

In this buy-side-only forum, we will discuss the challenges we face going into 2023 and how we are adapting our cost models, contracts, and relationships with service providers.

What you will take away:

This collaborative session will provide you with new insights from our experts and your sourcing peers as you exchange perspectives and ideas on how sourcing and vendor management teams are planning for 2023, including:

• What is the outlook for pricing across various service areas?
• How are your peers reacting to RTO regulations, policies, and decisions?
• How are productivity and performance being maintained as we move beyond the pandemic?

Who should attend?

• Sourcing and outsourcing leaders
• Sourcing pricing managers
• RTO and hybrid workforce leaders
• CPOs
• Category managers
• Supplier management leaders
