Key Findings & Highlights:
Xerox Services is part of Xerox Corporation, a U.S. public company with annual revenues of $18bn, headquartered in Norwalk, Connecticut. Xerox was established in 1906 and has over 130k employees in more than 180 countries. It formed its customer management services (CMS) business in February 2010, through the $6.4bn acquisition of affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (ACS), a Dallas, Texas based company. ACS was a BPO provider with annual revenues of $6.5bn and ~74k employees in ~100 countries at the time. It was founded in 1988 and went public in 1994; 93% of its revenues were generated from U.S. clients in key industries such as government, transportation, and healthcare. The acquisition brought a higher margin business for Xerox (Xerox Group had a 7.4% margin and ACS had 10.5% in 2009), a larger employee base (Xerox had ~54k employees in 2010), and new outsourcing capabilities in HR, F&A, customer care, Medicaid and pharmacy benefits management (PBM). At the time of the acquisition, ACS had ~32k customer care agents.
In January 2016, Xerox announced a split into two public companies, one holding its document technology and the other its business process services business (BPS). The BPS company will be named Conduent Incorporated and will have more than 100k employees, generating revenues of ~$7bn.
