Background and sources of information
Background of the research The Finance & Accounting (F&A) and Procurement functions comprise three end-to-end processes –
Record-to-Report (R2R), Order-to-Cash (O2C), and Source-to-Pay (S2P). This report focuses on third-party outsourcing of P2P activities – the downstream process within S2P
With increasing maturity of the FAO and PO markets, FAO contracts are expanding upstream beyond Accounts Payable (AP), while PO contracts are expanding downstream beyond S2C to include broader scope of P2P activities. This is resulting in increased convergence between the FAO and PO markets. Such an end-to-end process-driven approach to outsourcing as opposed to the existing piecemeal and functional approach is unlocking more value creation opportunities
In this study, we investigate the market state of P2P outsourcing. We focus on: Definition, value proposition, and challenges of P2P outsourcing P2P outsourcing market size and growth Emerging and current solution trends P2P service provider landscape Scope of the study and sources of information The scope of this study is third-party outsourcing and does not include internal shared services The study provides global and cross-industry coverage of P2P outsourcing The study is based on Everest Group’s proprietary database of over 1,000 FAO contracts and over 300 PO
contracts signed till the end of 2011, and operational capability of 25 service providers who offer P2P services

This report analyzes the key trends in P2P outsourcing within the FAO and PO market. It provides an understanding of the business value, adoption trends, solution characteristics, and service provider capability in P2P outsourcing.
Overview and abbreviated summary of key messages
P2P outsourcing solution trends
Technology is playing an increasingly important role in P2P outsourcing. Beyond add-on tools, several platform-based / BPaaS solutions are emerging
India has emerged as the main offshore hub for P2P delivery. However, an onshore-nearshore-offshore blend is emerging
Some of the findings in this report, among others, are:
Value proposition and key challenges
The P2P process typically accounts for nearly a third of the overall F&A and procurement operational costs
An end-to-end P2P outsourcing approach also poses some unique challenges such as multiple stakeholders, technology fragmentation, and a more complex scope definition beyond common BPO challenges, given the overlap with both procurement and finance functions
P2P outsourcing service provider capability
There are three emerging themes of service provider investments related to P2P outsourcing: BPaaS- / Platform-based solutions Analytics Expansion from P2P to broader S2P capabilities
