Outsourcing: a cure to financial crisis
In this rat race for survival, most people cheat their way into expand their business horizons, but nothing will ever overthrow Great Business Planning. It forms the framework from which every good business emanates. Without a firm and strong foundation, your business is bound to fail.
The reliability of outsourcing industry roots from the luscious facilities it offers to the clients. The general thinking was that outsourcing has been experiencing major cut-offs because of the financial crisis. But there is actually an escalation of business inflow in the outsourcing direction. Cost effectiveness stands out to be the most desirable thing as this is exactly what outsourcing advocates. The only vertical which would suffer may be the call center industry as it becomes the first to vanish when cutting down business processes progresses. It is, after all, not exactly an income churner.
Small businesses are turning to outsourcing as a means of compensating for their losses with low cost labor. This setup allows their business to function even with minimum capital. With the number of companies shutting down because of the economic crash down looming over the world, morale is down and climbing uphill is quite difficult.
In the face of economic crisis, businesses are considering the transfer of more business functions offshore from data entry to knowledge process outsourcing as they compare the cost advantages, manpower resources, and innovative workstations of the outsourcing companies with unmanageable problems of doing jobs in-house.
Outsourcing will save you a great deal of money and it is the only option to lead you through the turbulent financial storm. India, China, Philippines etc are some of the hot destinations in the realm of outsourcing.

Increase of back office jobs and lack of sufficient infrastructure
Companies started outsourcing jobs to other countries to clear off this mess. But adding to this confusion, many offshore countries, though they take up outsourced projects, are not qualified or able enough to be in the outsourcing industry.
2008 swept past us leaving behind the inerasable stamp of economic recession. The world is slowly trying to come up from the disturbances resulted from it. But this has, in some way, helped the outsourcing industry in abundance.
When the recession made the financial and business world topsy-turvy, companies announced temporary layoff which ended up in heaps of unfinished work. The most tiring and messy job among these is the never-ending back office jobs.
Companies started outsourcing jobs to other countries to clear off this clutter. But adding to this confusion, many offshore countries, though they take up outsourced projects, are not qualified or capable enough to be in the outsourcing industry.
Many countries doing the back office outsourcing services lack the sufficient infrastructure needed for the job. Companies need compatible technology, educated manpower, convenient work places, uninterrupted telephone connectivity and power facilities to excel in the outsourcing industry.
Unfortunately, many countries don’t meet these inevitable criteria and this affect the quality of the work they do. When work quality is on the decline, it adversely affects the reputation of both the giver and the receiver of these jobs.
At this juncture, outsourcing these works to countries like India and China becomes the only option for the Western countries to keep the businesses running. India and China are emerging as two of the hot destinations in the outsourcing industry. Both countries are blessed with literate manpower and innovative technology to back up the uninterruptible flow of outsourcing jobs.

Important steps for outsourcing legal services
Practice of a law firm obtaining legal support services from a third party service provider is referred as Legal outsourcing .While outsourcing legal services,you need to consider different steps.
Outsourcing” is an often heard term in IT era.
I met my friend yesterday after a long gap; we went to see movies, ate food together, traveled the whole city and at last, were tired and started discussing about our life.
He is working in one of the fortune 500 companies, and shares a better position there in the financial wing. He described me about the processes being done there and the experiences he had with his recent outsourcing initiative.
He said that, they deal in products and have a lot of legal documents to work upon. Being a large company with over 20,000 employees it is too hard to manage their records, products and calculations. The firm decided to outsource its legal work to a third party provider rather than requiting more people. This was the second time they were outsourcing it after their bitter experience from first outsourcing.
The firm they chose first for Legal process outsourcing was not capable to fulfill their needs. They then shifted to another one by considering all the mistakes they made while selecting the first. He explained me different steps that I should take care if I have a plan for “legal outsourcing” in future.
I would like to discuss some of them with you.
1. Search: Search has the top most priority among the different factors to be considered for a better outsourcing selection. You can search either online or offline for the different outsourcing providers for LPO. But the best method would be online method as you will be able to judge the capability through small tests.
2. Selection and addition: After all the providers have been searched. The next step would be to sort them according to their services.
3. Pilot project: prepare a short pilot project and time that would be able to judge the capability of the firm. You must take care that the firm gets sufficient time to finish the project at its best. Try to give the toughest part that you think would be hard to do during worst circumstances. This is necessary as it will make you confident that you do not need to mingle into the processing part and can trust on the output.
4. Preparation of documents: Also preparing instructions is as important as preparing pilot. Provide ample instructions that enable the company to work upon. It should be easily understandable. Also take care to avoid certain sentences that you feel adds a bond to the document. Let the firm working on it come with doubts. This clarifies that they are open to discussions and understanding ideas.
5. Allocation of “legal outsourcing pilot”: the next step would be to mail all the selected service providers with pilot project and the documents. Tell them to go through the documents as a reference for the work and to complete the project at the specified time.
6. Testing output: After the output is returned from individual providers let it go through rigorous checking and advise the mistakes to them and shortlist the providers who meet the final output quality.
7. Costing: If the outputs are received, ask all the short listed legal outsourcing service providers to quote their price. Depending upon the quotes received from the provider’s shortlist the one having better quality and average price.
It is advised to negotiate price and consider a higher price if quality is best. This will help you and avoid future problems when the actual work starts.

Data processing services for the Business Giants
"Outsourcing the data which has to be processed to the BPO companies becomes the only viable solution. BPO companies offer data processing services like data extraction, data entry, data conversion and some customized services according to the demands of the business tycoons."
Businesses, small and large, are at stake now. People look around with worried faces and tensed smiles. When the whole world becomes tumultuous in the economic crisis, the only industry that goes on without staggering steps is the BPO.
What is obvious to the public about the successful businesses is the volume of sales, either products or services, and the profits made. But what remains behind the scene are the grueling office work and the sweat of the multitude of the employees who contributed enormously to the success story.
When recession started its play, naturally it had shown its fury mostly to the business giants making them cut short their office staff in dozens to escape the burdening expenses. Data becomes unmanageable without sufficient staff and the work gets heaped up and becomes a threat to the previous success stories.
Outsourcing the data which has to be processed to the BPO companies becomes the only viable solution. Many BPO companies offer data processing services which include data extraction, data entry, data conversion and some customized services according to the business requirements of these business tycoons.
By outsourcing this voluminous data processing works to a service provider, they save on the expenses on their manpower and other resources for data processing jobs. They can expect quality outputs without any hassles that are usually involved in the process within the stipulated time.
The advantages of outsourcing are many. When it comes to managing data and processing it, the BPO companies acquire the guise of saviours to the business giants in the present condition.

Transcription for Movies and Television shows
"Video transcription is comparatively a new concept to us though it is widely used in western countries. Through video transcription, we can capture all the conversations in a movie or TV show with accuracy. This helps the viewers all round the world to follow the conversations correctly."
Transcription is a very commonly used term now-a-days. We have heard about medical transcription, business transcription, and even legal transcription. But how many of you have heard of Video Transcription?
It is comparatively a new concept to us though video transcription services are widely used in western countries.
If you are an expert in English language and keen on your hearing skills, you can be a part of video transcription. When you watch a movie or a TV show for the first time, you might not be able to keenly follow the conversations – the reasons may vary. But a video transcriber can capture all the conversations with accuracy. This helps the spectators all round the world to follow the conversations correctly.
Using video transcription, you can even transcribe the background sounds from a movie or TV show. For example, you can transcribe a visual of chiming church bells as ‘the church bells are ringing”. This naturally becomes a great assistance even to the deaf who couldn’t follow the conversations or sound effects that come with the visual media.
Another video transcription service is video tagging. If you miss out watching your favourite TV show, need not worry. Through video tagging, you can index the program according to the time it appears on the television. You can index portions of a movie or a TV program and escape from the unnecessary portions which you want to skip. Great idea, isn’t it?
The scope of video transcription is unlimited and so is its demand.

Importance of Document management and Digitization
"By document management and digitization, the documents, which are usually kept shabbily as paper files, can be searched, retrieved and accessed from any location. The capturing, tagging, classification, retrieval and distribution of documents become faster and more effective."
The present day office scenario is quite messy and most of the crucial business information is stacked away as piled up physical documents. The problem gains magnitude when it comes to the network of geographically-distributed companies. Employees tend to waste much of their valuable time looking for documents and information which they contain.
Moreover, there is always a threat of losing these physical documents incase of a natural hazard or emergency situation.
The universal solution for this is an organized document management system by archiving everyday office documents like purchase orders, customer statements, contracts, patents, formulation records, medical images, electrical designs etc. digitally.
By document management and digitization, these documents can be searched, retrieved and accessed from any location. The capturing, tagging, classification, retrieval and distribution of documents become faster and more effective.
Being a constructive solution, it allows an organization to create or alter a business solution as per its own distinctive requirements. The documentation and digitization processes are scalable and adaptable to the ever growing document demands of any emerging organization.
Many of the BPO companies have extensive security measures to guarantee restricted and authorized access to the documents to protect the integrity and value of the information in the documents such as contracts, patents, formulation records, engineering designs or bank vouchers.

Video tagging for music channels
"Video / Audio tagging helps you in listing various events or subjects appearing in your video or a particular portion of the audio by indexing them and storing them as meta tags. This facilitates us to view or hear only that specific part of your video or audio of your choice — depending on the exact time they appear in the video clipping."
MTV and V channel are two of the much adored music channels with a steady viewership round the globe. Because just like we love music, we love the enchanting video and the possibilities of it. Music when combined with visuals, well, the possibilities are endless. But do we need to listen or view the video that comes with the songs completely? Don’t we have the option to view and listen to what we like? The answer is YES!
We differ in our mindset and our preferences of watching videos also differ.
It’s always easy to skip a written content which doesn’t interest you, but with a video, there’s no way to avoid watching everything you don’t care about unless you chaotically fast-forward to skip that part. If you like a particular video clipping that comes in your favourite song and want to avoid the rest of it, video tagging comes to your help.
What is audio tagging / video tagging?
Audio/video tagging helps you list the different events or subjects appearing in your video or a specific part of the audio by indexing them and storing them as meta tags. This makes it easier for you to view or hear only that specific part of your video or audio of your choice — according to the exact time they appear in the video clipping.
When the data or the video/audio excerpts are indexed and tagged, you can directly select the tags without much fuss, and they can be even linked so that you can send them to your friends. Moreover, top search engines can search these tags, so that if there’s a very popular 10-second video clipping, that tagged part can be linked to by bloggers and other people also.

BPO advantages in financial crisis
"Economic recesion has hit the world with vengeance. But the industry which has thrived this adversity is the BPO industry. When costs of doing work in-house has increased in the companies abroad, they have started to outsource their business requirements, which in turn has become a blessing in disguise to us."
Even Nasscom, the industry association, points out that the current fiscal crisis in the United States will adversely affect the Indian BPO/IT sectors as the clients from USA would be very vigilant in their unrestricted spending on outsourcing their projects.
But, imbibing the spirit of true ‘Indianism’, we are good at the art making positives out of negatives. So we are as quick as a squirrel to turn this crisis into an advantage for the BPO sector in the long run.
The advantages of Indian BPO industry in the present scenario is discussed in the article.
This global economic recession will compel diverse financial organizations to outsource more work to cut costs to a large extent. This will definitely boost the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) from the financial services sectors abroad, with our estimated work inflow increased to 40-45 times the current market size over the next five years.
Today the Indian BPO is the most upcoming and mushrooming industry attracting the educated youth all over the country. Indian BPO workforce offers several advantages over their western counterparts both in terms of cost savings (low-cost labour) and availability of resourceful manpower.
The revenue generated by the BPO & KPO industry in India is estimated to Rs.1,160 crores and provides employment to almost 7-8 lakh people in the year 2007-08. The largest contributor to the Indian BPO-KPO export market in 2007 is USA with a lion’s share of around 61%.
The Everest Research Institute predicts that for India, being the hub of global outsourcing for financial services, the opportunity for global BPO will mount to USD145 to 165 billion for India based services, within the next five years. The outsourcing of BPO projects from the insurance sector will have a steady rise, about 12-15 times simultaneously, according to the report.
Banking sectors and other financial firms are undergoing significant cost-reduction pressure and are therefore planning to move jobs offshore.As I told you earlier in this article, Indians have the untiring spirit to rise from the ashes like the phoenix. Let this spirit kindle the minds of our people to rise up from the unrest and anxiety that looms around and to strive more to reap the best out of the worst.
