New York, NY; & London (PRWEB) June 13, 2006 -- DDC Group today announced that it has made an equity investment stake in OS2i, a DDC HRO partner - further evidencing DDC´s view of the growth opportunity in HR BPO that leverages a hybrid onshore-offshore service delivery model. The latter has been a mainstay of DDC Group business philosophy and permeates through all business units.
The resulting "hybrid" or "multi-shore" RPO approach to the difficult issue of successful candidate sourcing yields important results in the modern workplace in that it cuts the time and cost of candidate sourcing; and improves onshore recruitment focus on timely candidate management and good onboarding processes. This to ensure successful hiring and onboarding of 'the right candidates' for the organization in a timely manner.
Speaking of the investment, Group Financial Director Brett Trevalyan said: "We sense a shared vision for customer service and practical results, leveraging offshore techniques and staff deployment in delivering valuable results for our clients."
"With this expansion of our existing Alliance relationship and our combined experience-base, we see a great strategic fit working together", says Jan Trevalyan, DDC Group Founder and Chairman.
Addressing the further strengthening of the working relationship between DDC HRO and OS2i in the category of Recruitment Process Outsourcing ("RPO"), David Kinnear CEO of DDC HRO noted: "Here we spotted an operational and strategic synergy that was compelling and that demanded further exploration. Only a few could see that offshore processing was a key component of the HR BPO business and that this would be key to driving much-sought efficiencies for many clients in the years ahead. These guys did. It´s a pleasure to work with our colleagues at OS2i who are clearly forward-thinking and results-focused."
Says Regan George, Managing Director of OS2i in the UK: "This investment and our combined experience will accelerate our growth -- this being timely as the HR marketplace now takes note of the opportunity for offshore delivery of support services such as recruitment processing. We´re delighted with this turn of events."
