Why sustainability matters in the future of global outsourcing
ESG has become a central consideration for global organizations as they scale operations across borders and adopt new technologies. In the outsourcing industry, businesses increasingly look for partners that combine performance with responsible practices. Long-term environmental and social impact is no longer viewed as an optional add-on; for many clients, it is an essential part of vendor selection and long-term strategy.
Schachtel’s insights in Forbes mirror Sourcefit’s established sustainability pillars, which guide much of the company’s work across its global locations:
- Environment: Projects such as the Soilmate tree-planting initiative and other conservation efforts.
- Community: Programs like the EmpowerED Learning Centers, which bring technology, mentorship, and training to public high schools.
- Food Security: Support for nutrition and agricultural resilience in underserved communities.
These areas form the foundation of Sourcefit’s approach to building programs that deliver consistent, long-term value.
Connecting sustainability with innovation and global operations
Sourcefit’s work in outsourcing and AI-powered business solutions is supported by investments in people, community development, and responsible operations. As the company expands its technology offerings, including collaborative AI tools, workflow automation, and the Knit productivity platform, its ESG principles help shape how these tools are designed and deployed.
The focus on sustainability contributes to:
- Reduced waste and process inefficiency
- Stronger workforce development
- Better alignment between technology and long-term client outcomes
- Support for resilient and future-ready teams
This connection between innovation and responsibility is an important part of Sourcefit’s identity as it grows across the Philippines, South Africa, the Dominican Republic, Madagascar, Armenia, and new markets.
A broader role in the global business conversation
Forbes’ inclusion of Schachtel’s perspective reflects a growing interest in how companies integrate ESG into daily operations, not just policy statements. As outsourcing and AI continue to evolve, sustainability will remain a significant factor in how organizations evaluate partners and build long-term strategies.
Sourcefit’s work in this area continues to develop as the company expands its operations, supports community-led initiatives, and enhances its capabilities in global staffing and AI-driven transformation.
