Multi-Process Human Resources Outsourcing (MPHRO) Annual Report 2019 – Unraveling the HR Conundrum Through Digital Adoption
The global Multi-Process Human Resource Outsourcing (MPHRO) market has been able to consistently maintain an upward growth trajectory, witnessing a CAGR of 6-8% and is expected to cross US$5 billion by 2020. The growth is backed by strong demand from the mid-market (particularly from North America) as well as other geographies such as Asia Pacific and the Middle East. Challenges faced by HR such as pressure to reduce operating costs, talent-related issues, and the need to improve employee experience have forced the enterprises to look for innovative solutions. A combination of solutions such as analytics, automation, cloud, and advisory can be leveraged to mitigate these challenges.
Due to the evolving buyer demands and rapidly-changing technology landscape, the role of service providers will evolve from that of administrators to strategic partners who bring together or orchestrate the ecosystem.
