We introduced the playbook
==> picture [77 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [906 x 378] intentionally omitted <==
----- Start of picture text -----
TM
Traditional BPO Approach The UnBPO Mindset
Front, middle and back-office tasks with defined boundaries
‘Service-as-a-software’; boundaries between process and IT blurring
Labor arbitrage/global delivery are the key assets
‘Technology arbitrage’ not just for cost, but for leverage
Labor-based resourcing model; focus on pyramid optimization
Skill-based resourcing; full/part time, gig, and agentic workforce
Shared service delivery models; one size fits all
‘Fit-for-purpose’ technology contextualized for deep domain
Location dispersion driving competitive differentiation
Location dispersion is ‘location debt’; AI centers of excellence
Hierarchical org. structure; generational workforce
Cross-functional structure; distributed decision-making
Traditional L&D; traditional incentive structures Personalized skilling and reskilling; Retooled incentive structures
Leverage AI for point solutions and drive productivity AI-at-the-core with human-in-the-loop
Use partners to fill technology gaps Orchestration of specialized partners integrated into the operating model
Linear revenue model Disruptive growth with non-linear commercial models
