Definition :
The Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) market refers to the transfer of entire business processes or individual activities from a company to a third party and is often IT based. BPO covers a wide variety of business processes, usually either in the back office (e.g., human resources) or in the front office (e.g., customer service in call centers). A distinction is made between horizontal and vertical outsourcing. Horizontal BPO combines function-centric as well as cross-sector and cross-industry services, such as human resources management or payroll accounting. Vertical BPO, on the other hand, focuses on specialized services and is especially appealing to customers from the financial services industry, the healthcare sector, the manufacturing industry, or the retail sector.
