Abstract

Currently, the BPO&O sector has been considered as one of the most important sectors of Colombia, because of its growth in recent years (report realized by the consultants McKinsey & Company for the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Tourism). The Colombia government has projected revenues of US48.000 million and the creation of 600.000 jobs by 2032. In this context, it is clearly the importance of these companies and their extensive use of technology is an interesting factor to study. To receive such an abrupt growth in the sector, the study is considered important from two perspectives, corporate strategy and technology, thereby bringing to devise a broad strategic direction oriented to the development that comes for this sector.
For the study, analysis and diagnosis of the aforementioned strategies, it is established the use of companies call centers and contact centers globally and nationally. This paper presents interim results, focusing only on the state of the art of these topics.
