Leaders also have superior investments in innovative CM contact center BPO service offerings, business/pricing models and service delivery models. They have a superior understanding of client needs and of current market conditions, and they are actively building competencies to sustain their leadership position in the CM contact center BPO market across multiple regions. The CM contact center BPO service providers in this Leaders quadrant generally also have strong global and regional service delivery operations and deep technology to leverage, and they deliver above-average customer experience."
