The outside company, which is known as the service provider or a third-party provider,
arranges for its own workers or computer systems to perform the tasks or services either
on site at the hiring company's own facilities or at external locations.
Companies today can outsource a number of tasks or services. They often outsource
information technology services, including programming and application development as
well as technical support. They frequently outsource customer service and call service
functions. They can outsource other types of work as well, including manufacturing
processes, human resources tasks and financial functions such as bookkeeping and
payroll. Companies can outsource entire divisions, such as its entire IT department, or
just parts of a particular department.
Outsourcing can involve using a large third-party provider, such as a company like IBM
to manage IT services or FedEx Supply Chain for third-party logistics services, but it can
also involve hiring individual independent contractors and temporary office workers.
But why do companies use a BPO? Companies need business process outsourcing
because of two main reasons: Outsourcing is often far less expensive than doing the work
in-house. The other reason companies outsource to a BPO is because more often than
not the BPO provides a better services. For instance large E-commerce providers might
be superb at creating online platforms and driving traffic, but they aren't good at all at
customer support because they lack people skills. So what do they do? The best way is
to keep core activities in-house and outsource activities they may not be the best at to
BPO’s.
BPOs have a service level agreement or SLA with their customers. This ensures the
quality of work they can provide since this is a clear metrics of their performance. Usually
this is the basis on how they will be paid. They are paid once they meet the set
expectations from their client. This is provided with quality and a quick turn around time.
Furthermore, BPO’s that take on projects because they are often better at providing this
take on customers who are still growing and therefore need BPO’s that can help them
grow. If you will join these BPOs, you could grow fast from a customer service agent to a
team leader because of the fast paced industry.
Human resource departments have a lot of information to input, store and track. The most
common method of organizing this information is with a comprehensive human resource
management system (HRMS).
Human resource information systems (HRIS) are typically more data-driven solutions that
allow you to craft in-depth reports for the purposes of audits.
Most HRMS offerings, such as Paychex and Workday, act as HR's central platform and
often have modules or integrations that allow you to access payroll services, benefits
management, and performance evaluations.
