The pandemic forced enterprises that rely on outsourcing to increase their focus on risk management and accelerate their digital transformation. This push translates into the need for newer capabilities from providers at a time when companies are looking to address their needs cost-effectively by restructuring their portfolios. In fact, in the first half of 2021, 76% of the organizations we surveyed stated that they planned to change their service provider portfolios to consolidate the supply base, while focusing on relevant niche skills.
