Founder-led.
Operator-built.
PITON-Global is run by the two operators who sit across the table from you — six and a half decades of combined global CX governance paired with 25 years of first-hand Philippine market architecture, built on the ground in Manila since 2001. No brokerage. No marketplace. Just senior leaders, accountable from the first strategy session to live governance.
Two complementary mandates, one standard of rigor.
One leader brings the buyer-and-supplier view of worldwide CX delivery; the other brings the operator’s map of the vendor landscape. Between them they cover both halves of a sound sourcing call — disciplined performance frameworks and unsentimental, ground-truth diligence.
Done right, outsourcing doesn’t just hand off work — it wires a high-caliber operating engine straight into your business.
Four decades in global outsourcing, spent on both sides of the table — first winning the programs, then answering for how they run.
For more than twenty years he led global business development as an Executive Vice President at the largest contact-center company in the world, structuring enterprise CX, sales and back-office programs for Fortune 500 buyers in 30+ countries — a portfolio well past a billion dollars. Hundreds of competitive bids later, he reads a vendor selection the way the people writing the proposals do.
Having sat in both the seller’s and the buyer’s chair, he can separate a true operator from a polished pitch in minutes. Add hands-on depth across a dozen industries, and you have the judgment PITON-Global puts to work the moment an engagement begins.
A founding-era figure in Philippine BPO, with a 25-year record of building market-entry strategies that still stand years later.
An award-winning outsourcing executive, Ralf has spent more than 25 years inside the Philippine call-center and BPO industry. He arrived in 2001, as the sector itself was taking shape, and has since helped everyone from early-stage startups to Fortune 500 enterprises stand up, migrate and scale contact-center and back-office operations with the country’s strongest providers.
He built PITON-Global around one conviction: pair clients with providers on proven, durable performance — never on who pitches best. Solution design, operating-model architecture and vendor alignment are where he spends his days.
The right provider isn’t the one with the best slides — it’s the one whose numbers still hold three years in. Our job is to know which is which before you sign.
