'Lift and shift outsourcing model is now over’

By: Johns

India is clearly key to IBM’s managed business process portfolio. As its general manager, Erich Clementi takes clients beyond the traditional ‘lift and shift’ outsourcing model, Daksh operations acquired in 2004 are crucial to its vast global network. Employing 20,000 people at last count, Daksh today boasts of a network of 17 delivery centres spread across seven cities in India and Philippines. Armed with its global delivery network of 36 BTO centres across the world, Clementi calls the Indian offshoring giants “formidable”, but is confident they “can’t match up IBM’s global delivery network”. General manager of IBM system’s Z division till 2003, he has more recently started leading small and midmarket accounts of the business systems segment.

Organisations are seeking a partner who can help them rethink their business models and business operations, optimise those operations and drive new innovative kinds of business processes. They want continuous strategic change to transform existing processes. Clearly, the traditional BPO approach of lift and shift is over. Our value proposition is much more than labour arbitrage. We run our client’s process to transform their operations. We bring in our experience of doing it for multiple clients. Our strategy of providing higher value services is resonating with clients as they seek a partner to help them solve these complex business requirements.

This strategic focus in our services practice is paying off. In the third quarter for instance, IBM’s total global services revenue grew 14%, the highest in four years. And we had a strong performance in all geographies and business sectors. IBM’s managed business process services (MBPS) efforts are unique in that they are designed to bring together all our capabilities for our clients—consulting, business processes
