The Multi-Process Human Resources Outsourcing (MPHRO) market is witnessing rapid evolution – the dynamics have changed in the last couple of years and its reach has broadened. While the incumbents still dominate the more mature MPHRO markets (North America and Western Europe), they are facing tough competition from newer entrants in the emerging markets, which are the primary growth levers in MPHRO. The focus is steadily shifting towards the emerging markets (majorly APAC), where an understanding of the local dynamics is becoming the proverbial “key to success”. Buyers are demanding more than just cost-reduction, and, hence, cloud and analytics are growing in importance. Companies such as Workday and SuccessFactors have disrupted the market landscape, prompting HRO service providers to take notice. What we are also witnessing is that service providers are moving out of their “comfort zone” to adapt to this changing environment.
