by Brianna Crandall — February 18, 2015—IAOP (the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals) announced on Monday its annual Global Outsourcing 100 and World’s Best Outsourcing Advisors lists at the organization’s 2015 Outsourcing World Summit in Phoenix, Arizona. This year, the GO100 list will remain unranked to make companies easier to find by name and to emphasize the excellence of the entire group of companies.
The outsourcing service providers named to the tenth annual listing of Global Outsourcing 100 include companies from around the world providing the full spectrum of outsourcing services, including such major facilities management / real estate services providers as CBRE, DTZ (formerly Cassidy Turley), ISS, Johnson Controls Global WorkPlace Solutions, and Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL).
In the list’s tenth year, there are several important changes:
- An expanded focus on innovation and corporate social responsibility (CSR)—areas customers say are increasingly central to their outsourcing decisions;
- A showcasing of the best companies in each of four judging categories: size and growth; delivery excellence; programs for innovation; and CSR; and
- Alphabetical instead of ranked lists, making it both easier to find companies by name and placing greater emphasis on the merit required to make the list as opposed to relative ranking among these top companies.
The official lists will be premiered in a special advertising section on outsourcing in the 2nd quarter 2015 FORTUNE 500 issue of Fortune magazine, on stands June 8, 2015. All companies included on the lists will have demonstrated their global excellence; half or full “stars” will be awarded for all companies distinguishing themselves in one or more judging category, with the highest rated of those receiving “full stars.”
