Everest Research Institute this week released the first issue of Market Vista, a new quarterly report on global outsourcing and offshoring activity and trend insights. "We're taking quarterly reporting of the global outsourcing and offshoring market to the next level," says Peter Bendor-Samuel, Chairman of the Institute and Founder/Chief Executive Officer of Everest Group. The first edition is free, on request.

Market Vista looks at the all dimensions of the market -- outsourcing deals, captives, locations, suppliers and more, to navigate "the increasing complexities" of global outsourcing. The intent is to provide intelligence across multiple dimensions to help executives effectively manage risks, and spot opportunities.

“Sophisticated users of offshoring increasingly realize that they must understand the broader context of how the market is changing,” said Nikhil Rajpal, Practice Head, Global Services, Everest Research Institute. “For example, Market Vista integrates analysis of location cost structures with currency exchange rate fluctuations to provide a holistic view of what issues need to be managed.”

The quarterly Market Vista reports provide data and analysis across multiple dimensions, including:

• deal trends in the outsourcing and offshoring market
• captive model analysis including new center announcements, expansion and divesture
• current and emerging location analysis including risks and opportunities and government initiatives
• key supplier developments including transaction activity, changes in delivery footprint, M&A and alliance activity; and analysis of key developments across the top 20 financial services companies globally

  The inaugural Q1 2008 Market Vista report features focus analyses of Eastern European cities and the Chinese supplier landscape. Find highlights at the link below.
