Cushman & Wakefield Named “All Star” by IAOP®, Earns “Sustained Excellence” Distinction in Outsourcing

April 12, 2021

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Cushman & Wakefield (NYSE: CWK) announced today that the firm earned an All Star distinction from IAOP® for receiving top scores across each major judging category of The 2021 Global Outsourcing 100® list. Additionally, the firm received a Sustained Excellence distinction for having recently been named to the list for the 10th consecutive year.

The real estate services firm earned a perfect score in the Customer References category, the single most important factor in a company’s overall score, for demonstrated results and value created for the firm’s top customers. Cushman & Wakefield also earned top marks in Awards and Certifications, Programs for Innovation and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), all of which are increasingly central to customers’ outsourcing decisions.

“We’re pleased that Cushman & Wakefield continued to earn top marks across all judging categories for IAOP’s Global Outsourcing 100 list, particularly for customer references,” said Bill Knightly, Chief Executive of Global Occupier Services (GOS) at Cushman & Wakefield. “We’re committed to bringing the best of our business to each client relationship, from delivering innovative, data-driven solutions to retaining the best people in the industry. These scores are indicative of our dedication to service excellence.”

While the past year was challenging for many of Cushman & Wakefield’s clients, the firm’s frontline property and facility managers and client-facing employees across GOS and C&W Services globally went above and beyond their regular scope of work to keep businesses and communities safe and operational.

"Choosing the right partners is more important than ever. Buyers understand there are hundreds of qualified service providers and advisors out there, but what they need to understand now is what makes each one exceptional," said Debi Hamill, IAOP CEO. "The Global Outsourcing 100 has done just that, and we're proud to recognize Cushman & Wakefield.”

The 2021 Global Outsourcing 100 recognizes the world's best outsourcing service providers and advisors. This list is based on applications received; judging is based on a rigorous scoring methodology that includes an independent review by an independent panel of IAOP customer members with extensive experience in selecting outsourcing service providers and advisors for their organizations.
