Elevate Your Outsourcing Game in the Philippines

Most businesses depend on outsourcing to at least some degree. Typically it means hiring an external firm to handle issues such as customer service, accounting, graphic design, data research, digital marketing, technology, component manufacture and many more.

Why Businesses Outsource?

  • Outsourced personnel provide access to a worldwide talent pool via remote supports. Businesses are not limited by a geographical location, as developers can be anywhere in the world. This helps save time and effort on recruiting and management, as employees will be managed by an outside organization.
  • Adding new talent and technology is easy. Remote supports often have a bench of technologists that are willing to support and are available to start instantaneously. Adding new technology and talent is easier than ever because you can pick up talent for a project or add burst recruitment to a present project.
  • But the most impactful and growing factor behind outsourcing is the cost. The cost associated with running an outsourced project is way less than an in-house team. There are multiple factors that subsidize to this, including salary, currency, health insurance and benefits.

BPO Trends in the Philippines

The Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry still plays a vigorous role in the developing economy of the Philippines. It subsidizes over 11% to the GDP.  It is the lone largest sector that employs over 1.2 million people across more than 700 outsourcing businesses and corporations.

With the latest updates and in spite of issues in the US, overseas and recessions in other countries, the BPO sector is still the single biggest contributor to the nation’s economic activity, and it’s showing no signs of slowing down in 2019. The industry has a dynamic role in providing jobs to hundreds of thousands of Filipinos. It helped the Philippines leave its mark internationally in terms of its people’s skillset. It leveled a field for Filipinos to showcase and compete with the rest of the world.

“If you talk to our American, foreign BPO clients, we ask them for indicators, they’re still looking to outsource a lot of these functions to Philippines, some say they’re even going to increase exposure in Philippines vs other Asian neighbors,” Megaworld said.
