Outsourcing Advisory & Support

Research-centric membership programs that support continuous improvement initiatives

Global Sourcing Advisory Group's Executive Advisory Program provides a trusted source of fact-based insight to executives who are responsible for the strategic and management decisions.

Global Sourcing Advisory Group's Executive Advisory Program provides a trusted source of fact-based insight to executives who are responsible for the strategic and management decisions needed to run finance, information technology, human resources and procurement.

The Executive Advisory Programs offer access to deeply experienced advisors, key performance measurements, best practices, practical research and peer interaction for major focus areas.

On-demand access to GSAG business advisors gives senior executives a continuous source of best practice insights, data and recommendations to support the design, planning and implementation phases of change initiatives. Regular executive briefings, conferences and webcasts assist functional leaders in establishing priorities and generating organizational consensus. Through GSAG's member-only peer-to-peer roundtables and summits, executives have the opportunity to learn from and exchange ideas and approaches with colleagues from other Global 2000 firms.

Outsourcing strategies are not simply about cost reduction strategies or risk transfer. The scope and complexity of these activities in most cases almost always requires an "independent 3rd party" to provide strategic advice on how to extract value from IT as an overall function. Without this, in most cases, these activities produce negative results impacting the business and in many cases the shareholders.

Our Outsourcing Advisory & Support practice with its demonstrated analytics, deep industry connections, and our independence advice has positioned our team as strategic business advisors on some of the largest outsourcing deals to date. Our strength lies in the development long-term and trusted relationships with our clients.
