The survey was conducted using unaided research. That is, survey recipients were asked to name their top outsourcers, and were not provided with a list of outsourcers from which to select.
Survey respondents judged outsourcers in three main categories: operational excellence, products and services, and overall performance. Eighteen sub-categories were also employed to rank the firms.
