Outsourcing White Papers
Outsourcing, Insourcing and Saving Money
Overview Saving money has always been one of the drivers for considering outsourcing, but it usually fell behind more strategic motivations, such as focusing on core competencies or freeing internal staff for other initiatives. However, in these tighter economic times, more companies are turning to outsourcing as a means to reduce and control IT costs. To a large degree, your ability to save money depends on the structure of the deal and the experience of the outsourcer, but willingness to accept change is perhaps the most important factor. It’s important to remember the old adage, "Doing the same things with the same people in the same way gets the same results." To which we can add "for the same or even higher costs." For example, if we turn over a three-year Java programmer to an outsourcer, we will still pay that programmer’s salary, plus an increment for the outsourcer’s overhead and profit.
