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.

Peru, a country known for its rich history and culture, has been experiencing a steady growth in the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) market in recent years.
Customer preferences: Peruvian businesses have been increasingly outsourcing their non-core business processes to third-party service providers, allowing them to focus on their core competencies. The most commonly outsourced services in Peru include customer service, finance and accounting, and human resources. Peruvian companies prefer outsourcing to other Latin American countries due to their similar time zones and cultural similarities.
Trends in the market: The BPO market in Peru has been driven by the growth of the country's economy, which has led to an increase in the number of businesses seeking to outsource their non-core processes. Additionally, the rise of digital technologies has made it easier for businesses to outsource their processes to service providers located in other countries. The COVID-19 pandemic has also accelerated the growth of the BPO market in Peru, as businesses have been forced to adopt remote work models and are increasingly looking for cost-effective solutions.
Local special circumstances: The BPO market in Peru is characterized by a large number of small and medium-sized service providers, with only a few large players dominating the market. This has led to intense competition among service providers, with many offering specialized services to differentiate themselves from their competitors. Additionally, the Peruvian government has been actively promoting the country as an attractive destination for BPO services, offering tax incentives and other benefits to companies that choose to outsource to Peru.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: Peru's economy has been growing steadily in recent years, driven by strong domestic demand and increased investment in infrastructure and natural resources. This has led to an increase in the number of businesses operating in the country, many of which are looking to outsource their non-core processes to third-party service providers. Additionally, Peru's strategic location and membership in the Pacific Alliance trade bloc have made it an attractive destination for foreign investors looking to outsource their processes to Latin America.
