Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) Market Dynamics

The COVID-19 pandemic compelled several BPO companies to adopt remote working practices to oversee social distancing norms. The BPO industry embraced the remote working style seamlessly with business continuity plans in place and the introduction of enhanced processes to support employees working from home. Additionally, the adoption of technology by BPO companies in the past two years has helped them stay afloat and generate a positive outcome amid the pandemic crisis.

Speaking of technology, BPO companies are reinventing themselves with the introduction of robotic process automation, machine learning, and artificial intelligence applications in business operations.  The implementation of voice recognition, live chat support services, and chatbots has helped BPO staff reduce the time spent on repetitive and tedious tasks, allowing them to focus on developing skills in other areas. As such, BPO companies are focused on upskilling their employees and identifying specialized service areas to enhance service offerings, which is anticipated to create more opportunities for market growth.

However, several factors such as stringent data security regulations, lack of niche expertise, in-house process automation, and increased emotions of trade protectionism might emerge as the key impediments to the business process outsourcing (BPO) market’s growth in the projected period.
