Introduction and scope Everest Group recently released its report titled Contact Center Outsourcing (CCO) Service Provider Landscape with PEAK Matrix Assessment 2015. This report analyzes the changing dynamics of the CCO landscape and assesses service providers across several key dimensions. As a part of this report, Everest Group updated its classification of 25+ service providers on the Everest Group Performance Experience Ability Knowledge (PEAK) Matrix for CCO into Leaders, Major Contenders, and Aspirants. The PEAK Matrix is a framework that provides an objective, data-driven, and comparative assessment of CCO service providers based on their absolute market success and delivery capability. Everest Group also identified six service providers as the 2015 CCO Market Star Performers based on the strongest forward movement demonstrated on the PEAK Matrix year-on-year. Based on the analysis, Teleperformance emerged as a Leader and a Star Performer. This document focuses on Teleperformance s CCO experience and capabilities and includes: Teleperformance s position on the CCO PEAK Matrix Teleperformance s year-on-year movement on the CCO PEAK Matrix Detailed CCO profile of Teleperformance Buyers can use the PEAK Matrix to identify and evaluate different service providers. It helps them understand the service providers relative strengths and gaps. However, it is also important to note that while the PEAK Matrix is a useful starting point, the results from the assessment may not be directly prescriptive for each buyer. Buyers will have to consider their unique situation and requirements, and match them against service provider capability for an ideal fit. 2

Market success Additionally, Everest Group confers the Star Performers title on the providers that demonstrate the strongest forward movement over time on the PEAK Matrix Methodology Everest Group selects Market Star Performers based on the relative YoY movement of each service provider on the PEAK Matrix Year 1 Service provider Year 0 In order to assess advancements on market success, we evaluate the performance of each service provider on the PEAK Matrix across a number of parameters including: Yearly revenue growth Number of new clients added Capability In order to assess advancements on capability, we evaluate the performance of each service provider on the PEAK Matrix across a number of parameters including: Annual growth in scale Increase in scope of services Expansion of delivery footprint Technology- / domain-specific investments The top quartile performers on each of the specified parameters are identified and the Star Performer rating is awarded to the service providers with: The maximum number of top quartile performances across all of the above parameters and At least one area of top quartile performance in both market success and capability advancement 2015 CCO Star Performers The Star Performers title relates to YoY performance for a given service provider and does not reflect the overall market leadership position.

FAQs (page 1 of 2) Does the PEAK Matrix assessment incorporate any subjective criteria? Everest Group s PEAK Matrix assessment adopts an objective and fact-based approach (leveraging service provider RFIs and Everest Group s proprietary databases containing providers deals and operational capability information). In addition, these results are validated / fine-tuned based on our market experience, buyer interaction, and provider briefings Is being a Major Contender or Aspirant on the PEAK Matrix, an unfavorable outcome? No. PEAK Matrix highlights and positions only the best-in-class service providers in a particular functional/vertical services area. There are a number of providers from the broader universe that are assessed and do not make it to the PEAK Matrix at all. Therefore, being represented on the PEAK Matrix is itself a favorable recognition What other aspects of PEAK Matrix assessment are relevant to buyers and providers besides the PEAK Matrix position? PEAK Matrix position is only one aspect of Everest Group s overall assessment. In addition to assigning a Leader, Major Contender or Aspirant title, Everest Group highlights the distinctive capabilities and unique attributes of all the PEAK Matrix providers assessed in its report. The detailed metric level assessment and associated commentary is helpful for buyers in selecting particular providers for their specific requirements. It also helps providers showcase their strengths in specific areas 16
FAQs (page 2 of 2) What are the incentives for buyers and providers to participate/provide input to PEAK Matrix research? Participation incentives for buyers include a summary of key findings from the PEAK Matrix assessment Participation incentives for providers include adequate representation and recognition of their capabilities/success in the market place, and a copy of their own profile that is published by Everest Group as part of the compendium of PEAK Matrix providers profiles What is the process for a service provider to leverage their PEAK Matrix positioning status? Providers can use their PEAK positioning rating in multiple ways including: Issue a press release declaring their positioning/rating Customized PEAK profile for circulation (with clients, prospects, etc.) Quotes from Everest Group analysts could be disseminated to the media Leverage PEAK branding across communications (e-mail signatures, marketing brochures, credential packs, client presentations, etc.) The provider must obtain the requisite licensing and distribution rights for the above activities through an agreement with the designated POC at Everest Group 17
