Océ Business Services and Client Verizon Wireless Win “Best Use of Outsourcing” Award at the 15th Annual Outsourcing Excellence Awards

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Océ Business Services, a leader in document process management services and technology, today announced that Outsourcing Center has presented Océ and its client Verizon Wireless with the “Best Use of Outsourcing” Award at the 15th Annual Outsourcing Excellence Awards. Awards were presented in nine categories at a black tie dinner held last night at the Adolphus Hotel in Dallas. This is the second consecutive year in which Océ Business Services has received an Outsourcing Excellence Award.

Outsourcing Center conducts the annual awards program and is an online community specializing in thought leadership, best practices, and innovation in outsourcing. The Outsourcing Center’s Outsourcing Excellence Awards program recognizes the world’s best outsourcing arrangements. An independent panel of industry judges selects relationships that demonstrate best practices, create and sustain a competitive advantage, provide business transformation, achieve value, and benefit both client and service provider over time.

Océ provides clients with outsourced document process management services that include mail, records, document imaging and managed print services. The “Best Use of Outsourcing” Award acknowledges an outsourcing relationship where both parties successfully use these kinds of outsourcing services as a strategy to deliver measurable business improvements beyond cost reduction. This includes implementing solutions that enable the outsourcing client to access more advanced technical skills as well as to improve time-to-market for new services, enhance operational efficiency and support strategic growth initiatives.

“Successfully executed outsourcing strategies enabled each organization to achieve critical business goals and improve margins,” said Debra Floyd, chief operating officer of Outsourcing Center. ”Innovative new approaches are critical for companies to implement to gain competitive advantages in an increasingly complex global environment. These award- winning partnerships demonstrate models for success in multiple industries.”

Members of the judging panel included executives from the following organizations: Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., LLC; SNR Denton US LLP; BP America Inc.; ONTALA Performance Solutions Ltd.; Darden School of Business, University of Virginia and Everest Group.
