DLA Piper is pleased to announce that the firm has been selected for the 2018 World's Best Outsourcing Advisors list by the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP).
Each year, the IAOP produces the list ranking the top 20 law firms and consulting firms related to outsourcing from around the world. Judging was based on a set of measurable standards and an evaluation by a panel of outsourcing leaders, and recipients of the award "have demonstrated their global excellence." This is the third consecutive year the firm has been recognized by IAOP for the strength of its global Technology Transactions and Strategic Sourcing practice.
This recognition also comes on the heels of this group's recognition by The Legal 500 as a Tier 1 practice for both service providers and customers of outsourced services. The publication recognized the group's "expertise in both the legal and business sides of outsourcing" and highlighted the efforts of the group in the Life Sciences, Technology, Healthcare, Government, Hospitality and Retail sectors.
DLA Piper's global Technology Transactions and Strategic Sourcing practice concentrates on complex technology, sourcing and outsourcing transactions with such transactions frequently spanning many jurisdictions. The group also serves as a trusted digital advisor to clients by helping them navigate the legal and operational risks associated with the digital transformation of the enterprise and the evolution of business models that leverage both technology and data as strategic assets to be optimized and potentially monetized and the cyber and business continuity risks associated with complex digital ecosystems that leverage emerging technologies such as IoT, blockchain, machine learning, cloud computing and artificial intelligence.
DLA Piper is a global law firm with lawyers located in more than 40 countries throughout the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific, positioning us to help clients with their legal needs around the world.
