Joining CBRE in the top 10 were Accenture, IBM, Sodexo, Tata Consulting, Wipro Technologies, Convergys, ISS, Infosys Technologies and Capgemini.

CBRE said the selection marked the third consecutive year in which it had been named to the prestigious list, which recognises the world’s best outsourcing service providers.
