“Few things have disrupted markets and impacted the sourcing of global services more than the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Thom Mead, Director of Marketing at DATAMARK. “The survey provides insight into new factors and locations which Sourcing and Procurement professionals are now considering for these services.”
The survey encompasses an audience of 86% respondents coming from the buy-side and 14% respondents on the supplier side. 45% of respondents represent companies greater than $2.5 billion in annual revenue, 38% of respondents represent companies with less than $2.5 billion, while the remainder have chosen not to identify a company size. The industries represented in the survey span the full spectrum, with the most responses provided by three main industries: Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI), Manufacturing, and Professional Services.
