Is SPLA the best licensing for Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)?

Service providers delivering Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) solutions often don't choose the most appropriate licensing model. Yes, Microsoft SPLA is designed for hosting providers, but is BPO a hosted solution? Are there ways to avoid SPLA licensing and optimise spend while ensuring compliance?
