CIO Magazine's Stephanie Overby Comments on Alsbridge Viewpoint -- Outsource Providers are Facing an Innovation Crisis  
 

Leading writer comments after interview with CEO Ben Trowbridge

 

Dallas, TX - September 7, 2007 "Outsourcing Innovation Crisis" is the title of a new blog by Stephanie Overby, CIO Magazine Senior Editor, and it is also soon to be the topic of a more extensive article online and in the print version of CIO. 

The article comes from several interviews Stephanie conducted with Alsbridge CEO Ben Trowbridge, as well as two recent Alsbridge research papers: 2007 Buyer Viewpoint on Information Technology Outsourcing and The Outsourcing Innovation Crisis  
An analysis of the impact of low operating margins on the outsourcing industry

CIO Magazine conducted a similar survey and validated Alsbridge's own research.. Here's an excerpt from Stephanie's blog:

"Here at CIO, we conducted our own survey. Nearly a quarter of respondents were dissatisfied with the level of innovation provided by their domestic services provider and almost half were unhappy with the innovation provided by offshore outsourcers. And neither number takes into account IT leaders who, despite outsourcing marketing materials that advertise innovation, already have limited expectations."

A full article on this topic is due in October.  For more thought leadership articles and research, please visit www.outsourcingleadership.com.
