     Automation and the Future of Outsourcing: The Robots Really are Coming
Leslie P. Willcocks, COP, Professor, Technology Work and Globalization, Department of Management at London School of Economics and Political Science
What role will robotic process automation play in the future DNA of outsourcing? Drawing on a forthcoming book on service automation and four years of LSE Outsourcing Unit research with Mary Lacity into high performance ITO/BPO, LSE Professor Leslie Willcocks pinpoints how automation is integral to transitioning outsourcing practices to higher levels of performance.

       Global Business Services & Governance
Atul Vashistha, COP, CEO, Neo Group and member of IAOP’s Strategic Advisory Board; Soumitra Rathod, Vice President of Globalization, Time, Inc.
A fast rising global sourcing model for many companies is being referred to as GBS or Global Business Services. There are many variations of this. The audience will learn from a leading consultant and his experience with European operations as well as hear a case study by a client on their GBS model, including the governance that is exercised in the USA, Europe and Asia.

     
Benefiting from Improved Outsourcing Outcomes through Standards

Adrian Quayle, Managing Partner Europe, Avasant; Ron Babin, COP, (via video link)  Professor, Ryerson University, Toronto, Canada
Outsourcing enables an organization to achieve business objectives, add value, tap into a resource base and/or mitigate risk. The application of standards, such as ISO, provides all the parties involved in outsourcing assurance that business objectives can be achieved through utilization of common governance and processes throughout the outsourcing lifecycle, and  can help organizations with the processes to identify the business case for outsourcing, select the most appropriate partner, transition to the new operating model and ensure that value is delivered through effective governance from the relationship. This session will delve into the ways standards can be used in the development of outsourcing deals and relationships.
