In a year characterized by significant digital disruption, the 2024 Global Outsourcing 100® underscores the remarkable success and adaptability of service providers and advisors. This year’s list celebrates organizations that have not only thrived but have excelled, innovated, and set new industry standards in this new era. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to IBA Group for securing a well-deserved place among the world’s finest.

About The Global Outsourcing 100

In its 18th year, The Global Outsourcing 100 and its sub-lists are essential references for companies seeking new and expanded relationships with the best companies in the industry. The lists include companies that provide the full spectrum of outsourcing services — not just information technology and business process outsourcing, but also facility services, real estate and capital asset management, manufacturing and logistics. They include not only today’s leaders, but tomorrow’s rising stars.

Companies of all sizes, from around the world and across the entire outsourcing industry – information technology outsourcing, business process outsourcing, facility services, real estate, design, testing, manufacturing and logistics, to name a few – can apply for inclusion on these lists. IAOP Membership is not required and not considered in compiling the final lists.

To help ensure participation by a broad cross-section of the industry, The Global Outsourcing 100 list includes larger established global firms, referred to as ‘Leaders’ and smaller, faster-growing firms with less than $50 million per year in revenue and/or fewer than 5,000 employees, referred to as ‘Rising Stars,’ as well as ‘Advisors,’ regardless of size.

Companies are first organized by Leader, Rising Star or Advisor criteria and then evaluated based on four judging categories. The final list is composed of the top-scoring companies, regardless of type.

The aggregate scores from the areas that include Customer References, Awards and Certifications, Programs for Innovation, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) determine inclusion on the lists. All companies included on the list have demonstrated their global excellence.

The International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP) named IBA Group as one of the world’s top 100 outsourcing service providers for the 11th consecutive year.

The re-imagined OWS is scheduled for May 16-17, 2023. According to IAOP, it will be a more intimate event and the first OWS held in a city setting.

As IAOP is the most respectful and authoritative outsourcing organization with the highest standards of performance excellence, regular inclusion in the best performing outsourcers list is a great honor for IBA Group. It serves as a recognition of company’s achievements and contribution to the development of the sourcing community.

A Bulwark in the Storm

Entitled A Bulwark in the Storm, the special advertising feature in the Fortune 500 Magazine by IAOP says that outsourcing partnerships have emerged as a stopgap against myriad challenges facing the post-pandemic workplace. The article quotes Debi Hamill, IAOP CEO, as saying: “Outsourcing goes beyond merely contracting for services. These are collaborative partnerships that are now an integral piece of the success strategy for nearly every organization in the world. Outsourcing gives companies access to untapped labor pools and underserved communities, which makes good sense both from a business and social impact standpoint. Additionally, the accelerated adoption of digital technologies—while leaving many companies scrambling—has been an area of strength for outsourcing.”

IBA Group’s solutions for public transport came under the limelight this month. MasterCard re-certified IBA validators and IBA Fare Collection System became a finalist in the Transport Ticketing Awards. 

MasterCard Re-Certifies IBA Validators

MasterCard conducted the initial certification of IBA validators during the COVID-19 pandemic. In October 2020, MasterCard experts from Great Britain conducted a detailed remote analysis of validator production, quality control, and management processes, and prepared their recommendations for improvement.

In late May 2022, the MasterCard International Payment System conducted another TQM compliance audit and re-certified the validators.

IBA Group provides a complete development and production cycle for the validator hardware and software, and the TQM certificate issued by MasterCard confirms the high quality of the public transport terminal manufactured by IBA Group.

IBA AFC Qualifies for Transport Ticketing Awards Finals

A panel of judges made up of industry-renowned executives selected IBA Group as a finalist for the tenth Transport Ticketing Awards in the Ticketing Technology of the Year category. Transport Ticketing Awards are part of the Transport Ticketing Global, the world’s largest public transport event for smart ticketing & mobility professionals. In 2020, the forum gathered more than 1,000 smart ticketing and mobility professionals. After two years away, the conference is back to explore the latest technological innovations and set the agenda for the year ahead.

For the contest, IBA Group submitted its Automated Fare Collection (AFC) solution implemented in public transport in Chisinau, the capital of Moldova. IBA Group completed the project in record time in cooperation with Visa, Victoriabank, the Chisinau Municipal Council, and local carriers.

The IBA Group’s tapXphone technology lies at the core of the solution. To use tapXphone, commuters do not need to download any applications, while conductors and fare inspectors do not need POS. They can use their smartphones to accept bankcard payments.

Your participation demonstrates a commitment to excellence and continuous improvement that is the hallmark of the outsourcing industry.

Debi HamillIAOP’s CEO

IAOP CEO Debi HamillA big thank you and congratulations to the companies named to The 2022 Global Outsourcing 100® for rising to the occasion in a particularly challenging year. Your tenacity, grit, and leadership were critical to ensuring our industry came out the other side of the global pandemic and we’re pleased to recognize you for your quality and performance excellence.

The GO100 judging is based on a rigorous scoring methodology that includes an independent review by a panel of IAOP customer members with extensive experience in selecting outsourcing service providers for their organizations.

IBA Group has been included in the Leaders category of The Global Outsourcing 100 for ten years running. In 2021, IAOP recognized IBA Group as Super Stars of The Global Outsourcing 100 and distinguished the company in all sub-lists of the rating with the highest possible scores.

About The Global Outsourcing 100

The Global Outsourcing 100 and its sub-lists are essential references for companies seeking new and expanded relationships with the best companies in the industry. The lists include companies worldwide that provide the full spectrum of outsourcing services — not just information technology and business process outsourcing, but also facility services, real estate and capital asset management, manufacturing and logistics. They include not only today’s leaders but tomorrow’s rising stars.

Companies of all sizes, from around the world and across the entire outsourcing industry – information technology outsourcing, business process outsourcing, facility services, real estate, design, testing, manufacturing and logistics, to name a few – can apply for inclusion on these lists. IAOP Membership is not required, nor is it considered in compiling the final lists.

To help ensure participation by a broad cross-section of the industry, The Global Outsourcing 100 list includes larger established global firms, referred to as ‘Leaders,’ smaller, faster-growing firms with less than $50 million per year in revenue and/or fewer than 5,000 employees, referred to as ‘Rising Stars,’ as well as ‘Advisors,’ regardless of size.

Companies are first organized by Leader, Rising Star or Advisor criteria, then evaluated based on four judging categories. The final list is composed of the top-scoring companies, regardless of type.

The aggregate scores from the areas that include Customer References, Awards and Certifications, Programs for Innovation, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) determine inclusion on the lists. All companies included on the list have demonstrated their global excellence.
