Avoiding Financial Drain in Outsourcing

Avoiding Financial Drain in Outsourcing

One of the popular reasons why most companies outsource is cut on their cost therefore experiencing financial drain should be out of the question. Though that is the case, most companies still experience financial drain their outsourcing contracts.

This was the conclusion derived from the white paper by TPI Inc. The reason why most companies experience financial drain is because of their neglect in recognizing economic factors as something which could have a big impact in their outsourcing deals.

In line with this, TPI offers these three basic guidelines which could help in preventing companies to experience financial drain in their outsourcing contracts:

How to Avoid Financial Drain in Outsourcing:
a. Determine the appropriate portion of the "outsourcing market" basket subject to inflation/deflation

Greetings,

I am conducting a research project and the topic of the project is the offshore outsourcing vendor selection process. The subject of this research is individuals that had experiences with offshore outsourcing engagements. “Experience with offshore outsourcing” was defined as but not limited to assisting clients in outsourcing arrangements, approving outsourcing decisions, evaluating service providers (vendors), managing ongoing outsourcing relationships, and approving final vendor selection decisions.

Your participation and feedback is extremely important to the success of the research. I sincerely appreciate and value your help and feedback. I’d also greatly appreciate if you could forward the link to the survey to others who might be qualified to respond.
