More on HP and BPO
Did you hear about their deal with Northgate Arinso?
A reader alerted me to this:
In August, NorthgateArinso took over HP-EDS’ SAP HCM and HR-focused outsourcing operations.
Although HP-EDS’s BPO operation in Germany is relatively small in size, this is a great proof point to your story. The story points out the motivation behind the deal, which is about volume & innovation. The news was only issued in German, but underpins your story completely.
