Design Process Council of the Philippines

The Environments Global (EG) and Re:Source Partners (RSP), in a mission to help create awareness of the Filipino design professional’s creative talent and competence in design process outsourcing promoting the country as an alternative outsourcing destination, has formed the Design Process Council of the Philippines (DPCP).

It is an organization of providers of outsourced services for the preparation and processing of design commonly known as Engineering Outsourcing. They believe that the design professions are headed toward the road of outsourcing as globalizations is making the world interconnected. Labeling the outsourced service as “Design Process Delivery”, they aim to bring the highlight Philippine brands while making it synonymous to reliable delivery of technical savvy and design flair.

The DPCP is working hard to push the Philippines to be at the forefront of the wave as the outsourcing tide ebbs into mainstream design practice. They envision accepting membership for all niche types of outsourced design services someday. The organization also envisions upholding quality in the design process sector by helping providers meet international standards and by supporting various programs promoting software management, use of licensed software and related initiatives.

They hope to address the “brain drain” that the industry has been experiencing over the years by expanding the design process sector and creating more opportunities that would encourage Filipino design professionals to remain in the country and for those working overseas to come back.
