Perficient Named a Global Outsourcing Leader by IAOP

By: via Business Wire

Recurring Recognition Honors the Breadth and Depth of Perficient’s Global Capabilities

Perficient, Inc. (Nasdaq: PRFT) (“Perficient”), the leading global digital consultancy transforming the world’s largest enterprises and biggest brands, was named in The 2022 Global Outsourcing 100® list in the Leader category by the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP®), the global, standard-setting association and advocate for outsourcing professionals and the organizations they support. This marks the second consecutive year that Perficient has been recognized as a leading outsourcing provider by the IAOP.

“We are proud to once again be recognized by the IAOP as a global outsourcing leader,” said Kevin Sheen, vice president, Perficient. “Perficient’s optimized global delivery approach combines onshore, nearshore, and offshore capabilities, striking the ideal balance to accelerate digital innovation and deliver real results for our clients. We are committed to growing our footprint and the expertise of our teams, and we believe that our continued recognition from the IAOP validates that our approach is working.”

Companies pursuing digital transformation constantly face pressures to innovate quickly. Perficient provides an optimized global delivery method helping businesses enable competitive advantage while increasing agility and speed to market. That approach is supplemented by Perficient’s global delivery professionals who deploy their expertise and an Agile methodology to achieve unprecedented results for businesses. The result is a powerful model for systems and software development, testing, and support.

In 2021, Perficient aggressively expanded its offshore and nearshore capabilities, growing its footprint in India by 50% and more than doubling its South American presence and headcount. Now with more than 3,300 offshore and nearshore developers, designers, and digital innovators, Perficient’s geographic footprint stretches across four continents and 10 countries, and the consultancy’s more than 6,000 global colleagues are delivering a fully integrated approach that provides clients stability, security, and quality across teams, technologies, and time zones.

“The last two years have emerged as the most challenging in recent history, with the entire world struggling to overcome the health and economic challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Every organization in every industry has felt the impact,” said Debi Hamill, CEO, IAOP. “That’s why we are especially proud of the providers and advisors named in the 2022 Global Outsourcing 100, who have demonstrated top quality and performance excellence during unprecedented times. Congratulations on being included among the very best in the world.”

The 2022 Global Outsourcing 100 recognizes the world’s best outsourcing service providers and advisors. The list is based on applications received.
