Infosys recognized as Leader in ISG Provider Lens™ Finance and Accounting Digital Outsourcing Services US 2020
Finance and accounting (F&A) services have evolved from full-time employee-based transactional services to digitalized services. Companies have come a long way from mere cost savings to now being able to improve efficiency and accuracy. With the advent of digital technologies, the F&A outsourcing (FAO) landscape has changed and defines how services are being delivered today. Cloud technologies have gained considerable traction and FAO services are being delivered on cloud platforms such as business process as-a-service (BPaaS). Automation has become integral for the delivery of F&A outsourcing services, helping to reduce costs and improve accuracy. In addition to technology adoption, enterprises are seeking to partner with providers to outsource not just transactional services, but the entire spectrum of F&A services.
The US was among the first markets to outsource F&A services, and has reached maturity in this domain with the increase in sourcing engagements over the years. Enterprises in this region are more transformation oriented and have witnessed a rapid adoption of new-age technologies.
Across this space, Infosys has been recognized as a Leader in the ISG Provider Lens™ Finance and Accounting Digital Outsourcing Services US 2020 study. This study serves as the basis for important decision-making pertaining to positioning, key relationships and go-to-market considerations.
