For the third year in a row, the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals® (IAOP®) has named international technology, media and telecoms law firm Olswang a Global Outsourcing 100® company and included it in The World’s Best Outsourcing Advisors list, a subset of the overall roster that recognises the world’s top 20 outsourcing advisors and consultants

The 2016 Global Outsourcing 100 and The World's Best Outsourcing Advisors recognizes the world’s best outsourcing service providers and advisors. These lists are based on applications received, and judging is based on a rigorous scoring methodology that includes an independent review by an independent panel of IAOP customer members with extensive experience in selecting outsourcing service providers and advisors for their organizations.

“Choosing the right partners is more important than ever. Companies that outsource, not only in the traditional sense but also through the wide array of the ever-changing collaborative business models are scrutinizing their providers very closely,” said Debi Hamill, IAOP CEO. “The GO100 is the definitive guide to help companies research and compare service providers with whom they are considering relationships."

Olswang's Technology and Sourcing teams have advised multinational companies including Marks & Spencer, BP and Unilever on an array of complex and strategic outsourcing and procurement transactions.

Olswang Partner Dominic Dryden commented: “We are very pleased to have earned a place in IAOP’s World’s Best Outsourcing Advisors list for the third year running, which demonstrates the pedigree of our practice and the value and strategic importance of the projects our clients entrust us with. 2015 was another strong year for our Sourcing practice, and I am grateful to all of our colleagues for putting in such a sterling performance and making this possible.”

In addition to being named a 2014, 2015 and 2016 Global Outsourcing 100® company and included on the World’s Best Outsourcing Advisors, Dominic Dryden was included in the 2015 The Lawyer Hot 100 list for his seasoned expertise and high-profile work. Olswang’s Sourcing team was also voted Outsourcing Advisory of the Year in 2013 by the European Outsourcing Association and was shortlisted in 2015 in the NOA’s Innovation category.
