Strategic Sourcing
Making your core business the priority
Staying competitive requires more and more of your attention.
Your networked IT is a key enabler of business performance and will help your organisation to improve operational predictability, manage risk, increase speed to market, improve productivity, innovate and take advantage of globalisation.
But, managing mission critical IT in house prevents you from focusing sufficiently on your core business. That is why most businesses choose to outsource or out-task their networked IT infrastructure, applications and business processes.
BT Global Services is able to meet your network and related IT requirements and will work with you and your leadership teams to help re-structure your business and unlock hidden value using our 'Consolidate, Converge and Extend process.
Sourcing strategically as a catalyst for growth
On our own or working with partners, we are able to deliver comprehensive Managed Network and IT Services globally under a consistent service level agreement (SLA) to support your business.
High impact innovation and transformation are an integral part of an out-tasked or outsourced arrangement and in May 2009, we were recognised as a leader in innovation by The Bathwick Group in their report called Innovation in Outsourcing.
Sharing Unilever's goals for business innovation
In one of the largest global sourcing contracts in UK corporate history, Unilever contracted BT Global Services to manage and develop its entire global communications infrastructure. Worth €750 million over ten years, and supporting over 179,000 people in some 100 countries, the solution also included the transfer of people and assets from Unilever to BT Global Services.
To help Unilever release capital for planned business expansion, BT Global Services has reduced the number of suppliers that Unilever has to manage from four hundred to one. After rationalising and upgrading its infrastructure, Unilever can now rapidly deploy new technologies across its entire global network. Savings were in excess of £200m and this was used to fund its business development programme and to concentrate on core business.
