LONDON, 31 October 2012 - The National Outsourcing Association (NOA) has named leading global IT services company HCL Technologies as its 2012 Outsourcing Service Provider of the Year.
 
The announcement was made at a gala ceremony in central London on 25th October, and saw HCL recognised for its commitment to its customers and employees, as well as its excellence in driving innovation in the industry.
 
In awarding the Outsourcing Service Provider of the Year Award, the NOA’s judging panel considered HCL’s contribution to a number of key areas, including its approach to innovation, strategy, best practice and governance and partnerships. Each of these areas was identified as essential for driving the industry further forward in an increasingly unstable economic climate.
 
Steve Cardell, Corporate Vice President – Europe, HCL Technologies, said, “We’re delighted to have won this award, particularly in the face of such fierce competition. I strongly feel that this award is an acknowledgement of the fact that we’re seeing an ever-increasing number of traditional outsourcing models collapsing in the global market. It also offers a clear endorsement of the role we have played in adding value to end-user organisations that are dissatisfied with existing suppliers.
 
“HCL is committed to driving innovation within the industry by working alongside customers to provide an alternative outsourcing model that allows value to be created. In taking this alternative approach, we have not only been able to help customers to transition from existing contracts with suppliers but also to achieve significant ROI.”
 
HCL’s commitment to making employee satisfaction its primary focus is embodied by its pioneering ‘Employees First, Customers Second’ (EFCS) philosophy, which has enabled a transformation in its business. By encouraging a unique management culture, HCL has been able to drive innovation across the business, empowering employees to transform client engagements and deliver greater customer satisfaction. As a result, HCL recently reported an increase in quarterly revenues of 3.2% QoQ to US$ 1,114m with the European business posting a revenue increase of 16.4% YoY in Q1 FY2013, and 2.8% QoQ in the first quarter of FY 2013.
