10 Offshore Outsourcing Examples: How We Help Companies Scale Smarter in 2025
Offshore outsourcing has evolved from a cost-cutting tactic into a strategic growth driver for companies worldwide. At THIENTU BPO, we've spent over 24 years helping businesses access specialized talent, reduce operational costs by 30-70%, and deploy fully operational teams in just 10-15 days—not months.
Whether you're a FinTech startup needing 24/7 customer support or a SaaS company looking to scale your development team, offshore outsourcing examples from our client portfolio demonstrate how the right partner can transform your operations while maintaining enterprise-grade quality.
What Is Offshore Outsourcing? Understanding the Model
Offshore outsourcing is the practice of partnering with external service providers in foreign countries to handle specific business functions or processes. This strategic approach allows companies to focus on core competencies while delegating specialized tasks to expert teams overseas.
At THIENTU BPO, we distinguish ourselves through a dual model approach:
- Traditional BPO Services: We manage complete end-to-end operations—customer support, telesales, digital advertising, and business intelligence
- Offshore Staffing: You maintain full control over your team while we provide recruitment, infrastructure, compliance, and operational support
- Employer of Record (EOR): We handle all employment compliance and payroll management for your Vietnam operations
This flexibility means you get exactly the level of control and support your business needs, backed by our ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO 27701:2019, and ISO 27001:2013 certifications for data security and quality management.
Why Companies Choose THIENTU for Offshore Outsourcing
1. Proven Track Record with Enterprise Clients
We've earned the trust of global leaders including Samsung (who honored us as Top Global Performer in Call/Chat NPS for Customer Contact Center), Shopee, and Fe Credit. Our 24+ years in business means we've navigated every challenge offshore outsourcing can present—and developed systems to deliver consistent, measurable results.
2. Speed to Deployment
Our recruitment infrastructure includes a 30,000+ candidate database and established processes that deliver:
- 7-14 working days for standard recruitment
- 3-5 days for urgent placements
- 10-15 days for complete team deployment with onboarding
This isn't theoretical—these are actual timelines from recent client deployments across customer support, telesales, and technical roles.
3. Cost Efficiency Without Quality Compromise
We deliver 30-70% cost savings compared to US or Western European hiring, and we're 30-50% more affordable than traditional outsourcing destinations like India or the Philippines. Our Ho Chi Minh City location provides exceptional value while maintaining the quality standards demanded by Fortune 500 clients.
4. Enterprise-Grade Infrastructure
Our THIENTU Cloud omnichannel platform supports 24/7 operations with seamless integration into your existing systems. Every team operates within our triple-ISO-certified security framework—critical for industries like financial services, healthcare, and technology.
5. Client-Controlled Flexibility
Unlike rigid BPO contracts, our offshore staffing model means your team members report directly to you. You control workflows, priorities, and culture while we handle recruitment, HR compliance, payroll, workspace, technology, and ongoing support.

5 Common Offshore Outsourcing Challenges—And How We Solve Them
1. Managing Communication Across Time Zones
The Challenge: Coordinating work across different time zones can create delays in decision-making and project momentum. Vietnam operates in GMT+7, which creates overlap opportunities with both Asia-Pacific and Western markets.

- Our THIENTU Cloud platform provides 24/7 visibility into team activities, project status, and performance metrics
- We implement structured communication protocols with daily standups, weekly reviews, and clear escalation paths
- Project management integration (Jira, Asana, Trello, Monday.com) ensures continuous visibility regardless of time zone
2. Addressing Cultural and Language Barriers
The Challenge: Different communication styles, work cultures, and language proficiency can create misunderstandings that impact project quality and timelines.
How THIENTU Solves It:

- Cultural alignment training: We prepare teams on Western business communication norms, expectations, and workplace culture
- Clear documentation standards: We establish written communication protocols to minimize ambiguity

Our 24+ years serving Western clients means we've developed training programs specifically designed to bridge these gaps before they impact your operations.
3. Ensuring Data Security and Privacy
The Challenge: Protecting sensitive business data, customer information, and intellectual property when working with external teams is critical—especially in regulated industries.
How THIENTU Solves It:
- Triple ISO certification: ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Information Security), ISO 27701:2019 (Privacy Management), and ISO 27001:2013 (Data Protection & Risk Compliance)
- Comprehensive NDAs and data processing agreements aligned with international standards
- Secure infrastructure: Enterprise-grade network security, access controls, and monitoring
- Regular security audits and compliance reviews
- GDPR and CCPA-compliant processes for clients requiring international data protection standards
Our certifications aren't just badges—they represent audited, verified security practices that meet or exceed requirements for financial services, healthcare, and enterprise technology clients.
4. Maintaining Quality Control and Service Levels
The Challenge: Without proper oversight, offshore team quality can drift from expected standards, impacting customer satisfaction and business outcomes.
How THIENTU Solves It:
- Clear Service Level Agreements (SLAs) defining quality expectations, response times, and performance metrics
- Real-time performance monitoring through our THIENTU Cloud platform with customizable dashboards
- Quality assurance programs including call monitoring, work sampling, and customer feedback analysis
- Regular performance reviews with transparent reporting on all agreed KPIs
- Continuous training programs to maintain skill levels and adapt to evolving requirements
For our customer support operations, we maintain the same quality standards that earned us Samsung's Top Global Performer recognition—proof that offshore doesn't mean compromised quality.
5. Mitigating Risk with Proper Contingency Planning
The Challenge: Political instability, economic changes, or infrastructure disruptions in outsourcing locations can threaten business continuity.
How THIENTU Solves It:
- Vietnam's political stability: Vietnam maintains one of the most stable political and economic environments in Southeast Asia
- Redundant infrastructure: Multiple data centers, backup power systems, and failover capabilities
- Business continuity planning: Documented disaster recovery procedures tested quarterly
- Flexible resource allocation: Our 30,000+ candidate database allows rapid team augmentation if needed

What's the difference between your BPO services and offshore staffing model?
We offer flexible engagement models to match your operational preferences:
Traditional BPO Services: We manage complete end-to-end operations. You define outcomes and SLAs; we handle recruitment, training, day-to-day management, quality assurance, and reporting. Ideal for customer support, telesales, and back-office operations where you want consistent results without direct management.
Offshore Staffing: You maintain full control over your team—they report directly to you, follow your processes, and integrate into your organization. We provide recruitment, HR compliance, payroll, workspace, equipment, IT support, and ongoing infrastructure. Ideal for development teams, specialized roles, or when you want your offshore team fully embedded in your culture.
Employer of Record (EOR): We legally employ your team members in Vietnam, handling all local employment compliance, contracts, payroll, benefits, and regulatory requirements. You direct the work; we handle the administrative complexity. Ideal for companies testing the Vietnam market or needing local employment without establishing a legal entity.
Can you scale teams up or down based on our business needs?
Absolutely. Scalability is one of the primary benefits of offshore outsourcing:
- Rapid scaling up: Our 30,000+ candidate database allows us to quickly source additional team members—typically adding 5-10 positions within 7-14 days
- Flexible scaling down: Contract structures allow for team size adjustments with appropriate notice periods
- Seasonal flexibility: Many clients scale teams up for peak seasons (holidays, end-of-quarter, tax season) and reduce during slower periods
- No minimum commitments: Offshore staffing engagements can start with as few as 1-2 positions
This flexibility means you can match headcount precisely to business demand without the financial risk of permanent local hiring.
