Bangalore, 06 December 2007. QuEST, a leading
provider of outsourced engineering services and
manufacturing, and Global Services, the leading global media
platform on outsourcing have launched a micro-site dedicated
to Engineering Services Outsourcing (ESO) at
http://www.globalservicesmedia.com/microsites/quest/index.htm
Engineering services outsourcing is considered the next wave
in domain specific knowledge outsourcing after IT
outsourcing and BPO, and studies estimate the market for
such services out of India could grow from $1 billion in
2006 to $40 billion in 2020.
“We noticed that Engineering Services Outsourcing had seen a
lot of traction off late, but seemed to lack in awareness
because of its specialty. We saw an opportunity here to play
a role in filling that niche space with knowledge and were
encouraged by QuEST’s willingness to sponsor the initiative.
We will endeavor to provide a platform that will engage the
ESO community and bridge the existing gap,” said Satish
Gupta, head of sales and marketing at Global Services.
Apart from regular news updates on the industry, the ESO
micro-site will contain research articles by industry
analysts and consultants, and will feature customer case
studies. Editorial control rests with Global Services. The
micro-site will be linked from the QuEST and Global Services
websites.
Says Vijay Menon, vice president of marketing at QuEST, the
site sponsor: “Engineering services outsourcing is distinct
from IT and BPO outsourcing, and QuEST is delighted to
support this initiative to create a credible and independent
forum where all the stakeholders—buyers, sellers, analysts,
consultants, and industry observers—can meet to exchange
notes and gather information on ESO.”
