Horses for Sources and the Shared Services & Outsourcing Network (SSON) Create Alliance to Provide Unique Analyst Insight and C-suite Forums for Senior Operations Executives

/EIN Prersswire/ March 23rd 2010. London, New York
Horses for Sources, the leading analyst advisory organization focused on outsourcing strategy support, has teamed with the Shared Services and Outsourcing Network (SSON), to provide a unique platform for senior outsourcing buyers to access knowledge and peer advice.
As part of the new alliance, senior operations executives in SSON’s premium community can benefit from research being provided by Horses for Sources, including all aspects of Business Process Outsourcing, shared services and governance strategy. Under the terms of the agreement, the “Horses” expert analyst team are available to support SSON’s members with their outsourcing and shared services decisions.
In addition to the research analyst support, SSON’s buy-side executives can benefit from C-level discussion groups, which will be facilitated by Horses for Sources analysts on-site at SSON’s premium events. Upcoming groups will be featured at the forthcoming Shared Services and Outsourcing Week events in Orlando and Edinburgh.
The Horses for Sources organization has been working informally with SSON for the last two years. The success of previous buy-side discussion forums served as the impetus for the formation of a more formal partnership.

Phil Fersht, Founder and CEO of Horses for Sources, stated, “Our goal at Horses is to deliver unbiased insight, research and advice to senior BPO and shared services decision-makers. We have found the community at SSON great to work with, and are excited to engage with their executives on a regular basis. Based on our long-standing relationship, we feel that SSON has the broadest and most comprehensive network of senior operations executives in the sourcing industry, and we are excited to be supporting them with some of the toughest – and most complex – decisions of their careers.”

Sarah Clayton, Global Head of Strategy at SSON added, “The proven depth of insight provided by the Horses for Sources team is exactly what our members demand, and their ongoing popularity and influence with many of our senior executives has driven us to formalize our partnership with Phil and his team. Our goal is not only to provide our community with great knowledge and networking opportunities, but also to help them benefit from the best and brightest minds in the industry. We believe Horses provides that for us, and are delighted to have them with us on this journey.”

Both Phil Fersht and Lee Coulter, Research Fellow and Distinguished Analyst, will present sessions at SSON’s 14th Annual North American Shared Services Week, Orlando March 22nd-25th 2010 and SSON’s 10th Annual European Shared Services Week, Edinburgh May 24th-27th 2010.
