eSCM

< Back

Created at Carnegie Mellon University, the eSourcing Capability Model for Service Providers (eSCM-SP) v2 helps IT-enabled sourcing service providers to appraise and improve their ability to provide high quality sourcing services. It also gives companies a way to differentiate themselves from their competition.

CEI is one of the first mid-size companies to implement eSCM throughout our operations.

The eSCM-SP model goes beyond the CMM and CMMI model by including practices related to topics such as client relationships, negotiations, security and intellectual property. CEI is working with Carnegie Mellon as one of the first mid-sized companies to pilot the model throughout our US and Indian operations.

How eSCM Benefits Clients
eSCM assists clients in facing many of the challenges of outsourcing:

  • Establishing an appropriate sourcing strategy
  • Managing risks throughout the sourcing activities
  • Identifying, selecting and negotiating with service providers
  • Conducting service provider governance and performance management
  • Managing relationships
