DLA Piper LLP (US) has ‘excellent market knowledge regarding outsourcing and other third-party arrangements’, and clients are full of praise for the ’thoughtful and creative’ members of the practice led by acknowledged expert Vincent Sanchez in Los Angeles and technology specialist Gregory Manter in San Diego. The firm has reognised expertise in all areas of outsourcing, including complex ITO and BPO transactions in highly regulated sectors healthcare, energy, insurance, and financial services. Sanchez, whose expertise encompasses digital transformation programs and supply chain management, played a key role in the development of the firm’s ASCENDANT methodology, which leverages market-leading software tools to deliver an interactive, online project management platform through which clients can manage large-scale sourcing transactions. The firm leverages its global footprint to advise large blue-chip corporates, but the core team in the US includes Mac Ferguson in Dallas, whose advice on complex global sourcing and technology transactions includes niche expertise in software as a service (SaaS) arrangements, and blockchain. San Diego-based Lana Turpie and Joanna Sykes-Saavedra in Philadelphia are also skilled in SaaS agreements. Hays Haney stands out for advice on HR, finance, and accounting systems outsourcing.
