"The sun is quickly rising on the procurement BPO market, with 2006 having seen deal activity of decidedly promising proportions," said Shruti Yadav, research analyst with IDC's BPO Services program. "IDC's analysis comments on the expanding and diversifying origins of this activity, unearthing trends around the kinds of vendors and client organizations driving the growth and the changing nature of these engagements themselves."
