HfS Research has announced it has joined forces with Sylvan Advisory to form HfS Consulting.  This revolutionary new service offering of the HfS Research organization is geared to support global enterprises’ complex decision making around outsourcing, shared services and global business operations.

HfS Consulting is a unique coming together of acclaimed research, benchmarking analytics, market insight and strategic consulting expertise.  It is revolutionary in the fact that enterprise clients can access ongoing analysis, data and expert advice via an annual, affordable and on-demand subscription relationship model, as opposed to solely buying costly “hourly billable” consulting services.  Moreover, HfS Research and Sylvan Advisory have developed a reputation over the years for delivering unbiased, practical, clear-sighted insight and advice for enterprises.
 
HfS Consulting is a global team of more than 50 HfS analysts and advisors across North America, Europe, Asia and Australia.  Its key areas of focus for clients include supporting formulation of global outsourcing and shared services strategy, selection of suppliers for business and IT services provision and supporting complex contractual requirements.  In addition, HfS’ team provides clients with guidance for governance and change management, helps them understand and tackle regulatory, security and risk issues, and also helps formulate Cloud computing strategy for business functions and processes.
 
HfS Research has rapidly developed an industry-leading reputation for providing the most compelling, in-depth research, benchmarking data and insight, since its inception at the beginning of 2010 and boasts a huge global community of 62,000 opt-in research subscribers, which regularly partake in ongoing studies.  No other research entity has the real-time insight into ongoing outsourcing and business operations dynamics across industries, business functions and regions.  In 2011, HfS was awarded Outsourcing, BPO and Services Analyst Firm of the Year by the International Institute of Analyst Relations (IIAR), the premier body of analyst-facing professionals, and runner-up for overall Analyst Firm of the Year.  Sylvan Advisory brings a team of experts from big-5 consultancies and leading outsourcing providers, with extensive global knowledge, keen business acumen with a strong history of prior performance.
