2 Introduction and scope Everest Group recently released its report titled Mortgage BPO Service Provider Landscape with PEAK Matrix Assessment This report analyzes the changing dynamics of the mortgage BPO landscape and assesses service providers across several key dimensions. As a part of this report, Everest Group updated its classification of 16 service providers on the Everest Group PEAK Matrix for mortgage BPO into Leaders, Major Contenders, and Aspirants. The PEAK Matrix is a framework that provides an objective, data-driven, and comparative assessment of mortgage BPO service providers based on their absolute market success and delivery capability. Everest Group also identified three service providers as the 2017 mortgage BPO Star Performers based on the strongest forward movement demonstrated on the PEAK Matrix year-on-year. Based on the analysis, Accenture emerged as a Leader. This document focuses on Accenture s mortgage BPO experience and capabilities and includes: Accenture s position on the mortgage BPO PEAK Matrix Detailed mortgage BPO profile of Accenture Buyers can use the PEAK Matrix to identify and evaluate different service providers. It helps them understand the service providers relative strengths and gaps. However, it is also important to note that while the PEAK Matrix is a useful starting point, the results from the assessment may not be directly prescriptive for each buyer. Buyers will have to consider their unique situation and requirements, and match them against service provider capability for an ideal fit. 2

This is captured through four subdimensions Vision and strategy Scope of services offered Innovation and investments Delivery footprint Vision for the client and itself; future roadmap and strategy Depth and breadth of services portfolio across service subsegments / processes Innovation and investment in the enabling areas, e.g., technology IP, industry/domain knowledge, innovative commercial constructs, alliances, M&A, etc. Delivery footprint and global sourcing mix 13

14 Everest Group confers the Star Performers title on providers that demonstrate the most improvement over time on the PEAK Matrix Methodology Everest Group selects Star Performers based on the relative YOY improvement on the PEAK Matrix ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE FOR SERVICES PEAK MATRIX Market impact Year 0 Year 1 Vision & capability In order to assess advances on vision and capability, we evaluate each service provider s performance across a number of parameters including: Innovation Increase in scope of services offered Expansion of delivery footprint Technology/domain specific investments In order to assess advances on market impact, we evaluate each service provider s performance across a number of parameters including: Yearly ACV/YOY revenue growth # of new contract signings and extensions Value of new contract signings Improvement in portfolio mix Improvement in value delivered This slide to be used ONLY for Star Performers We identify the service providers whose improvement ranks in the top quartile and award the Star Performer rating to those service providers with: The maximum number of top-quartile performance improvements across all of the above parameters AND At least one area of top-quartile improvement performance in both market success and capability advancement Star Performers are identified by top quartile performance improvement on the X and Y axes for each segment The Star Performers title relates to YOY performance for a given service provider and does not reflect the overall market leadership position, which is identified as Leader, Major Contender, or Aspirant. 14

15 FAQs (page 1 of 2) Does the PEAK Matrix assessment incorporate any subjective criteria? Everest Group s PEAK Matrix assessment adopts an objective and fact-based approach (leveraging service provider RFIs and Everest Group s proprietary databases containing providers deals and operational capability information). In addition, these results are validated / fine-tuned based on our market experience, buyer interaction, and provider briefings Is being a Major Contender or Aspirant on the PEAK Matrix, an unfavorable outcome? No. PEAK Matrix highlights and positions only the best-in-class service providers in a particular functional/vertical services area. There are a number of providers from the broader universe that are assessed and do not make it to the PEAK Matrix at all. Therefore, being represented on the PEAK Matrix is itself a favorable recognition What other aspects of PEAK Matrix assessment are relevant to buyers and providers besides the PEAK Matrix position? PEAK Matrix position is only one aspect of Everest Group s overall assessment. In addition to assigning a Leader, Major Contender or Aspirant title, Everest Group highlights the distinctive capabilities and unique attributes of all the PEAK Matrix providers assessed in its report. The detailed metric level assessment and associated commentary is helpful for buyers in selecting particular providers for their specific requirements. It also helps providers showcase their strengths in specific areas Does PEAK Matrix assessment incorporate customer satisfaction as an evaluation criteria/metric? Everest Group does not have customer satisfaction as a separate metric in its PEAK evaluation framework. This is primarily because it is challenging to obtain interviews with a meaningful number of reference buyers for each service provider. Also, customer satisfaction is a highly subjective and opinion driven metric and there is no foolproof methodology to normalize this input. That said, we validate our PEAK results through buyer interaction and capture some consistent spikes or lags in performance through metrics such as renewal rate, etc. What are the incentives for buyers and providers to participate/provide input to PEAK Matrix research? Participation incentives for buyers include a summary of key findings from the PEAK Matrix assessment Participation incentives for providers include adequate representation and recognition of their capabilities/success in the market place, and a copy of their own profile that is published by Everest Group as part of the compendium of PEAK Matrix providers profiles 15

16 FAQs (page 2 of 2) What is the process for a service provider to leverage their PEAK Matrix positioning, or Star Performer status? Providers can use their PEAK positioning or star performer rating in multiple ways including: Issue a press release declaring their positioning/rating Customized PEAK profile for circulation (with clients, prospects, etc.) Quotes from Everest Group analysts could be disseminated to the media Leverage PEAK branding across communications ( signatures, marketing brochures, credential packs, client presentations, etc.) The provider must obtain the requisite licensing and distribution rights for the above activities through an agreement with the designated POC at Everest Group Does the PEAK Matrix evaluation criteria change over a period of time? PEAK Matrix assessments are designed to serve present and future needs of the enterprises. Given the dynamic nature of the global services market and rampant disruption, the assessment criteria are realigned as and when needed to reflect the current market reality as well as serve the future expectations of enterprises 16
