LawScribe Recognized as “Rising Star” in Global Outsourcing 100 World’s Best Outsourcing Service Providers

I generally don't use this blog as a publicity tool for LawScribe but try to cover what's happening in the LPO industry and the legal profession as a whole. For once though I'm quite unashamedly wearing my LawScribe hat and am extremely proud to bring to the attention of my blog's readership our recognition as a Rising Star in the International Association of Outsourcing Professional's (IAOP) 2008 Global Outsourcing 100. The 2008 Global Outsourcing 100 was revealed last week at this year's IAOP world summit in Orlando. We participated in a well attended and extremely interactive panel session at the summit along with Connie Brenton, Assistant General Counsel, Sun Microsystems, Inc. and Neil S. Hirshman, Partner, Kirkland & Ellis, LLP. This was the very first time that legal process outsourcing has featured on the IAOP world summit agenda and further evidence that the LPO industry is now firmly entrenched in mainstream outsourcing theory and practice.

The Global Outsourcing 100 is devoted to featuring the best of today's leading outsourcing service providers and tomorrow's rising stars. Along with its publication by IAOP, the list appears each year in FORTUNE® magazine. Companies must demonstrate excellence in categories such as size and growth, customer experience, depth and breadth of competencies, and management capabilities. I believe LawScribe is one of only two LPOs making this year's Global Outsourcing 100 list.

"Getting selected to the Global Outsourcing 100 shows these companies came out on top following a rigorous application process and unbiased competition judged by an independent panel of recognized industry leaders in outsourcing,” says Jagdish Dalal, Managing Director, Thought Leadership, IAOP and chairman of the judges' panel. “Businesses should carefully consider these outsourcing leaders named on the Global Outsourcing 100 during their selection and due diligence process."
