SPi Global among top companies in 2012 Global Services 100

August 25, 2012, Manila, Philippines. SPi Global, the largest Filipino-owned BPO company, has again been included in the 2012 Global Services 100 list, securing its place among the world’s top 100 BPO companies, and as the only Filipino-owned company in the list.

This year, SPi Global is also included in four sub-lists: 2012 GS100 Leading Mid-tier BPO Providers, Industry-specific BPO Niche Leaders, Global Knowledge Process Leaders, and Leaders, Mid-tier Customer Management Services.

For seven years already, the Global Services 100 list has been a tool for buyers of business and technology services to identify and select the right vendor.

“The global service provider landscape is increasingly getting complex,” said Ed Nair, Editor of Global Services. “But buyers are looking at vendors with scale, skill, or both in delivering business outcomes and not cost-savings alone. The companies on the Global Services 100 list have demonstrated their ability to deliver complex solutions and services, manage global customers, and sustain successful financial performance.”

“We are very proud and honored to have this recognition,” said SPi Global President and CEO Maulik Parekh. “With the challenges that we face in the industry and the formidable competition we have, our inclusion in the list is proof of our dedication and commitment and the excellent services we provide to our clients who depend on us. These citations further encourage us to take our services to a higher level of excellence.”

The GS100 analytical model is based on four key criteria: performance and leadership, quality and maturity of customers, breadth of services offered, and spread of global delivery capabilities.
