Well, what you were reading sounds a lot like an older book. And older styles of writing involve (as they do) beating around the bush. As in, they dilly dally around and don't say things point blank. It's pretty much a phrase that I would use when trying to be snide and still getting my point across. Try reading the sentance as"Our integrated approach, involving creative outsourcing solutions and fast feedback loops, is a..."
Hope this helps!
