The Outsourcing industry has outpaced the S&P 500 Index so far this year. The industry, which is placed in the top 43% of more than the 250 Zacks industries, has rallied 29.1% in the said time frame, surpassing the index’s rise of 18.7%. The outperformance can be attributed to increasing demand for expertise in improving efficiency and lowering costs.

Economic Strength Keeps Demand Environment Strong

Economic strength has kept manufacturing and non-manufacturing activities in good shape, thus keeping the demand environment for outsourcing services strong.

Also, June was the 113th month of consecutive growth in non-manufacturing activities with ISM-measured Non-Manufacturing Index touching 55.1%.

Emerging Technologies to Improve Speed to Market

Most of the industry participants are considering emerging technologies such as cloud computing and robotic process automation to drive competitive advantage.
