THE COMPETITIVE EDGE
Built upon innovative infrastructures and disruptive practices, Eureka Outsourcing Solutions is one of the Top Domestic BPMs in the nation. However, it still faces a lot of competition from established and high-functioning peers with a global presence. Moreover, the competition within the nation can’t be neglected. Outsourcing continues to be an exceptionally competitive space in India. And with transformations, the competition is only picking the pace. Of course, this is alarming, but it doesn’t stop EOS from charging towards its goal.
To grow and build, it focuses on creating a favourable and progressive environment for its talent pool. “We want them to understand that Eureka Outsourcing Solutions is their platform for growth as leaders with a sense of driving quality from the very beginning,” adds the CEO. Focusing on the talent pool, it strives to create a ‘Robust Governance Framework’ by merging people and process-driven approaches. The framework will foster the required flexibility and accountability to each individual, maturing them for new responsibilities.
The talent pool advocates a significant value to the underlying ‘Customer Centricity’. This includes driving cost management – in a way – that the overall market value increases, bringing in the value that stakeholders look for. The customer-centric model enables it to work with Fortune 500 and blue-chip clients across various industry verticals like Banking & Financial Services, Insurance & Healthcare, Automotive, Fin-Tech, Broking & Distribution, Manufacturing, Consumer Durable and Retail. Abhinav proudly conveys this as a collaborative effort of every individual on board. Providing strong emphasis on a governance structure has created a highly conducive atmosphere where employees can keep growing.
INTEGRATION OF R&D
The service industry anchors a lot of transformations from multiple spheres, thereby forcing companies to rethink their strategies from time to time. And being a part of it, Eureka Outsourcing Solutions is not left behind. There is certainly a lot of traction of influencing factors, but nothing distracts it from building a progressive trajectory. Eureka Outsourcing Solutions constantly evaluates its solutions to ensure it attributes to requirement of clients as well as the end consumer.
The prudence lies in taking an informed decision about whether to develop a specific solution in-house or to leverage on solution(s) that can be availed through collaborations and alliance partners that are on-boarded from time to time. The decision is made in light of budgeted costs, future scalability factors, cost-benefit analysis viz-a-viz alternative options, and so on.
The constant underlying evaluation has helped EOS create faster, smarter and more affordable solutions. “We strive to do more with less”, remarks Abhinav. Over the years, it has created several case studies that illustrate its overall efficiency. It has developed an ‘Intelligent Voice Response’ model for a renowned Healthcare Company. The Company was struggling in managing, centralizing and consolidating “Customer Service” across multiple platforms. EOS’s platform helped it significantly cut down the cost of servicing a customer.
In another case, EOS assisted an online brokerage firm experiencing significant cost pressure despite having a growing client base. EOS designed a durable and creative product with appropriate security measures in collaboration with partners, resulting in significant cost savings for the Client. The instances demonstrate EOS’s efficacy and ability to tailor the exact requirement of clients.

In that light, departmental leaders nurture individual skills from time to time – This is backed by counselling sessions, focusing beyond their domains. Every leader serves as a mentor, assisting individuals in leading a balanced lifestyle while implementing a well-planned career path. Lastly, a robust ‘Performance Management System’ is implemented to identify best individual performers as well as teams. The system further helps in channelizing efforts to motivate individuals and teams to achieve better results.

With time, the ‘New Normal’ ecosystem was further strengthened – to drive necessary adaptability amongst the employees, such that every individual brings their utmost potential to work.
“With the pandemic, it has become extremely important to provide an “Adaptable Culture”, which can help individuals maintain a work-life balance, and the success mantra for any organization to excel”, says Abhinav.
