KPMG Chooses Indy in "Locations to Watch" for Next Outsourcing Boom
Monday, March 2, 2009 by Alicia Gaba
A new report by KPMG states that as the credit crisis looms, a new rush towards outsourcing IT services will begin - with a number of new locations worldwide emerging as viable Business Process Outsourcings (BPO) hubs.  Among those, are Indianapolis, one of two United States locations chosen.  As traditional outsourcing locations begin to reach a saturation point, the 31 cities chosen are expected to see quite a boom in IT services traffic. 

"The reasons for these locations making it on to the final KPMG list are varied but cities in the Americas should typically benefit from large labor pools, scalability, a more mature service offering, proximity to the major client base and multiple language skills. "
 

BlueLock, a matured Infrastructure-as-a-Service company has already started to feel this rush and believes it will only get more powerful.  Companies are forced to really take a look at their spending in times like these.  Outsourcing managed IT services is one way for many companies to take advantage of the cost savings and high ROI associated with cloud computing and virtualization.

Seems like cities should have not only an awareness of cloud computing including SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS, but also have a plan in place to address education gaps and court companies that have plans to build data centers, research centers, and anything to do with cloud development.
