Accenture offers total outsourcing products in our country and because of the August 31, 2009 generated net revenues of US$21.58 billion, the firm is planning for an expansion in Cebu.  In an interview with Lito Tayag, the country managing director of Accenture Delivery Centers in the Philippines, the business aims to grow its IT and BPO components in the city because of its big potential for development. Last 2007, Accenture-Cebu launched its Global Delivery Center Network for Technology. Last year, its call center operations had begun. The company’s joint venture with French NGO provided the good and highly-skilled manpower in Cebu.  Accenture Foundations granted 4-year Passerelles Numeriques (PN) US$1.26 million or more than P58 million for the training program of Cebu System and Network Administration. Young people from all over the Visayas will benefit from the scholarship grant to acquire IT skills.
