How to come up with very effective ways to strategize outsourcing? |
There is no defined path for strategizing outsourcing. It basically depends on the
higher management goals, investing capabilities of the company, the resources available
along with the policies laid down by the company etc. Below are some worth noting
factors:
Selection of the place to outsource
This requires thorough study of the political stability of the country where the
project is being outsourced in addition to economic policies, efficiency of workers,
cultural issues, International IT laws, policies and related factors.
Selecting the service provider for project
This should be done with great care and patience as the service buyer need to analyze
the providers capacity, facilities and technology available with them, technical
skills and quality of man power, financial strength, proven experience in the related
field and references, etc
Good will with service providers
The most important thing in outsourcing is both the buyer and provider should work
with mutual understanding and accept each other business policies and ideologies.
More importance should be given to the performance and quality of the work that
is being executed.

What level of control I have on the project execution with the other company? Will
I lose the control on project if I outsource it?
|
|
This will totally depend on the terms and conditions that are laid between provider
and buyer. As the project is been outsourced you will not have a total control on
the project execution. More over for the proper execution of the project both the
sides need to adopt flexible approach. So you will not lose the total control of
the project that you outsource. |

|
Are service providers with international certificates more reliable?
|
|
There are generally two aspects to this question. Certificates give assurance that
the provider will give quality of the work in addition to maintaining proper standards.
But if we consider other aspect internationally certified providers rate are comparatively
high and are very rigid in the way of working. |

|
What care should be taken to avoid communication problem?
|
|
Systematic communication policy is most important part of outsourcing. Both the
parties should make sure that every issue is taken care and solved properly. So
each work should be assigned to particular person only. For example Mr. John for
reporting, Mr. Harris for technology related matters, Mr. Philip for administrative
and financial purposes, etc. Buyer should be in proper contact with the person of
each department which is related to the outsourced project. |

|
What things should be included in the outsourcing contracts?
|
Some of the important things to be include in the outsourcing contracts are:
- Agreement and terms for the project
- Warranty period of project
- Disclaimers
- Control Factors to be considered
- Minimum Service levels
- Compensation and Incentives, penalties and rewards for the project
- Responsibilities of risk
- Ownership of data and its confidentiality
- Guidelines of Performance measures
- Measures to be taken for Emergency and Crisis
|
|
|
The contract should be flexible so that both the parties are satisfied and business
is profitable to each of them. It’s totally different way of working so the traditional
standards of business should not be given much stress.
