Jones Lang LaSalle announced Monday that it has been selected in the leaders category for the 2010 Global Outsourcing 100, an annual ranking of high-quality service providers across all industries as determinedby the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP). This marks the third time that Chicago-based Jones Lang LaSalle has been selected for the Global Outsourcing 100 list.

The 2010 Global Outsourcing 100 recognizes the world’s best outsourcing service providers and advisors. These rankings are based on applications received and evaluated by an independent judging panel organized by IAOP.

“As the economy recovers, partnering with the world’s best outsourcing providers and advisors will be more important than ever,” said Michael F. Corbett, chairman of IAOP. “The Global Outsourcing 100 helps companies easily identify those partners that will help them emerge as leaders.”

Commenting on the distinction, Stuart Hicks, CEO of corporate solutions at Jones Lang LaSalle, said, “Corporate real estate departments around the world choose our firm as their strategic alliance partner for our integrated service delivery platform, total client focus, and ability to align around their interests to deliver value. The Global Outsourcing 100 serves as recognition that we rank among the world’s best outsourcing organizations not only within commercial real estate but across all industries.”
