services on the cloud with pay-per-usage payment models.
Virtualization
Virtualization, which includes virtual computer hardware platforms, storage devices, and computer network
resources, in being widely used by enterprises globally to eliminate entire servers as well as the associated
infrastructure and operating costs. For instance, decommissioning of 1U rack server can annually save $500 in
energy, $500 in operating system licenses and $1500 in hardware maintenance costs.iv.This not only
streamlines a company’s IT infrastructure; it also lays the foundation for more strategic IT initiatives.
Virtualization has opened opportunities for IT services companies to offer Infrastructure–as–a–Service (where
businesses rely on equipment owned by IT service providers) and Platform–as–a–Service (where businesses
rely on software and platforms owned by IT service providers) to their clients.vThe virtualization services
market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 24% during forecast period.
Since customers are exploring opportunities to reduce operational costs associated with IT infrastructure, IT
services companies should consider offering cost effective virtualization solutions.

The chart and table below show the year-on-year growth of the global software and bpo services market during
2018-2023.

2023, $ Billion
Table 1: Global Software And BPO Services Market, Historic Market Size, 2018-
2023, $ Billion
Market 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 CAGR
The global software and bpo services market grew from $1461.96 billion in 2018 to $1950.92 billion in 2023 at
a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.94%.
Low-cost talent pool In Emerging Markets–The availability of the low-cost talent pool in emerging market
such as India, China and the Philippines supported the growth of the BPO services market in the historic period.
Companies in developed economies outsourced their business processes to emerging economies such as India
and China to capitalize on their affordable talent pool. In 2018, the hourly minimum wage in the UK equaled to
$10.34 while the minimum wage in the USA equaled to $7.25 x, around 5 and 3 times higher than the hourly
minimum wage in Brazil. The difference in wages enabled corporate to outsource non-core activities to
companies in emerging markets in the historic period, increasing the BPO activities in those geographies and
contributing to the growth of the market.
Growth In Retail And E-Commerce Verticals– Transformations in the retail and e-commerce sectors
supported the growth of the business processes outsourcing market in the historic period. Following the rapid
change in online and mobile usage, retail and e-commerce verticals had to evolve new back office services,
such as cross border payments, online support services and order management to stay competitive in the
market. For example, UK retail companies signed GBP 140 million worth of outsourcing contracts during the
first quarter of 2018xi, According to the Arvato UK Outsourcing Index in 2018, the retail and financial industries
outsourcing expenditure has seen an 8% increase in total contract value as compared to the last quarter of
2017xii.
Cybersecurity Concerns – Security, password protection and personal and financial information protection
were key issues for the software and BPO services industry during the historic periodxiv. The reporting of
security breaches caused by process outsourcing threatened the growth of the BPO services market. Due to
security breaches, the need for firewall protection and network separation to ensure privacy was another major
need across all industries. According to a 2017 study, 96% of all web applications contained at least one serious
vulnerabilityxv.In July 2017, the Swedish government had a leak of confidential information from its transport
authority after outsourcing its IT activities to IBM Swedenxvi. Routine security assessments undertaken with the
help of security researchers were needed to analyze programming vulnerabilities, adding to the software and
BPO industry costs thus, restraining the overall attractiveness of the market.
Corona Virus Pandemic – The outbreak of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has acted as a significant restraint
on the software and BPO services market in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and
employees working for these establishments faced difficulties related to infrastructure and communication
owing to lockdowns imposed by governments globally, forcing them to work from home. COVID 19 is an
infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first
identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China and spread globally including
Western Europe, North America and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have
resulted in a decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of 'lock down' and the outbreak
continued to have a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021.

2028, $ Billion
Market 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 CAGR
The global software and bpo services market is expected to grow from $1950.92 billion in 2023 to $3034.05
billion in 2028 at a CAGR of 9.23%.
Emergence Of Start-Ups –The emergence of startups as major clients of software and BPO service providers
is expected to drive the market. Driven by cost efficiency and the necessity to focus on core operations, startups
have started outsourcing non-core operations such as finance and recruitment to specialized agencies and
companies. For instance, outsourcing of finance and tech operations helps Leverage Edu, an India-based
EdTech startup connecting students with mentors, save approximately 40% of its capital through outsourcing.
The increasing number of startups is also expected to positively impact the market. In 2022, 14000 new startups
were recognized which was 20 times up in 5 years.xix
Increasing Investments In Smart Cities –The software and BPO services market is expected to be aided by
rapid growth in investments in smart city projects in many countries globally. Smart city technologies use
information and communication technologies to efficiently manage and operate urban services including
transportation systems, water supply and law and order. Smart cities uses system uses internet capabilities for
the transfer of data over a network without human interaction and minimal human to computer interaction.
As smart cities use a host of software for efficient functioning, the demand for software and BPO services is
expected to increase. In 2022, more than 5000 smart city projects were under progress in India which were
worth about USD 26.3 bnxx
Reduction In Free Trade –The growth of the software and BPO services market is expected to be slowed down
by the global reduction in free trade. Brexit is expected to disrupt the free flow of professionals across the
nations following the introduction of new regulations and uncertainties in currency exchange rates Since the
Brexit referendum in 2016, the value of the British pound fell by 12% against the Euro and 5% against the US
dollar xxii.British pound depreciation negatively affected businesses of British companies abroad, whose
revenues declined following the currency depreciation. The trend is expected to continue as the uncertainties
of the Brexit deal continue raising up. The expected depreciation of the pound due to the possible no-deal
Brexit outcome and possible obstruction for free flow of professionals across nations are expected to limit the
business flow of British companies abroad, thereby, limiting the growth of the software and BPO services
market in emerging economies. In 2022, the Russia-Ukraine crisis has also affected global trade. The previous
predicted global trade growth for 2022 was 4.7% and the forecast after crisis was 2.4-3%.Also, the GDP growth
was reduced to 0.7-1.3%.xxiii
Rising Attrition –High employee attrition in the BPO services industry is expected to hinder the growth of the
BPO services market in the forecast period. According to the Analytics India Employee Attrition Study, in 2021,
the attrition rate in India was 28.1% which was up from 16.0% in 2020.xxivThe impact of high attrition is expected
to increase hiring costs for training and development of new employees, failure to attract new clients and
decrease in productivity of the BPO services sector. All these factors are expected to reduce BPO providers'
profitability and stability in the market, hindering the growth.
Russian-Ukrainian War - The Russia-Ukraine war is expected to hinder the growth of the software and BPO
services market during the forecast period. The political turmoil between the two nations has led to material
shortage and supply disruptions of various products and services. Russia and Ukraine are key producers of
major agricultural commodities, minerals and other essentials. The ongoing conflict between the two countries
is causing anxiety among traders and manufacturers due to fear of continued shortage of products and services,
thus impacting the software and BPO services market growth in the forecast period.

Research Methodology
The Business Research Company’s reports are based on the methodology below.
Data
Our datasets are created using a wide range of proprietary and public sources including leading government
bodies, associations, trade journals, market intelligence reports and trade magazines. Data is modelled based
on hard data, extrapolation, regression analysis based on known macro data inputs, interpolation between
hard figures, comparisons with other geographies and markets, price estimations, and qualitative inputs. Data
is triangulated within our unique market data model covering an exhaustive list of 200+ markets across 12
countries and 5 regions. Comparable data is used for sanity check and trend analysis. For example our global
market value data is compared to unit sales and price data for the relevant market as well as relevant macro-
economic datasets in order to establish validity.
Market Numbers-
Market value is defined as the revenues earned by organizations for products and services within the specified
market. The break down by geography is revenue generated within the specific industry by organizations in
the specified geography, irrespective of where they are produced.
The competitor market share data is intended to represent the companies that gain the most revenues from
the given market and the percentage share of the market that they hold. If a company derives most of its
revenues from the market, its revenues are given in full. If a large part of the company's revenues come from
other markets, only the division of the company which operates in this market is included. Where accurate
information is not available on the revenues a company generates from the market its market share is not
included, however a profile of the company may still be included if it is a significant competitor in the market.

proprietary sources. Consultants are trained in research techniques and ethics by the Market Research Society.
