Your outsourcing deals are becoming more global and more complex. Clients are demanding tighter deadlines. Profits are diminishing. Combining internally-developed solutions and off-the-shelf software is no longer a viable option.

As a result, S3 has completed its Outsourcing Suite. Everything you need to deliver on the mega-deal:

• Management Suite: dashboard, alert engine, SLA manager, and more
• Billing & Expense: inventory-based billing and closed loop expense management
• Service Lifecycle Suite: full order-to-cash automation from request to fulfillment
• Inventory Suite: locate and track changes to your assets, circuits and sites
• Professional Services: a dedicated team at S3 with best practices to help configure and support you.

Why Now?
Profitable outsourcing has always been hindered by too many components. Not enough standardization of tools. Long customization cycles. And limited integration of solutions. Plus searching through in-house toolboxes and talent sets. S3’s Outsourcing Suite has been in production for 8 years.

What’s the value of an integrated suite to an outsourcer?

• Win More Mega Deals. You finally have a solution that can be leveraged and your account teams will deploy. You can eliminate significant risk from your financial model and price deals more affordably because S3’s Outsourcing Suite gives you reliability and predictability of costs during both pursuit and engagement.
• Data management is a costly, continual undertaking in a large outsourcing deal. If you add a combination of homegrown and off the shelf software, as is usually the case in most engagements, you’ve just magnified the complexity to critical status. S3 can manage all data sources effectively or provide the tools and expertise for your account team.
• Flexibility. Off-the-shelf software can be a strategic mistake for an engagement. Modifications consume precious time and are expensive.Your people do not have time to dedicate to managing scores of vendors for each account startup. If they do, the result is rogue software and solutions that are too expensive and rarely deployed on other projects.
• Support. All account teams need support. They say they never get enough.One vendor and one Outsourcing Suite keeps support elegant and simple.

Unavoidable conclusion? The S3 Outsourcing Suite leads to winning more deals because your solutions are more affordable in both pursuit of the engagement and in the execution.
