Richard Sykes, former chairman of outsourcing advisory firm Morgan Chambers and newly elected head of the Intellect outsourcing special interest group, said organisations with a track record in managing large outsourcing deals could give a "critical analysis" of the outsourcing industry's performance.

"Companies such as BP have a lot of experience in outsourcing and have seen what does and does not work," said Sykes.
