Outsourcing is when one company contracts another company to provide services/jobs, contrary to in-house employees to perform these services/jobs.
Outsourcing Benefits - Reduced expenses - Outsourcing can reduce the fixed and the recurrent costs. No payments for health insurance, payroll taxes, sometimes even the equipment per employee and general employees' administrative costs.
- Expert services - Access to required skills that match the company needs, outsourcing services usually will bring required experience.
- Technology availability - Access to the most required technology for the company without the whole costs of developing it in-house.
- Expand to another market - It is possible to use outsourcing services as local agent in new markets.
- Flexibility - In many cases that the workload of a company has ups and downs, human resources and machinery/equipment flexibility is necessary. Outsourcing can provide this flexibility when hiring the outsourcing services only when needed.
- Business focus - Outsourcing enables companies to stay focused on their core business services/products.
Outsourcing Disadvantages - Less control of processes - Many times the outsourcing services are a black box which leads to a situation that as a company that provides the complete service/product you do not have control of all parts but you have the responsibility of the complete service/products.
- Sensitive information can leak outside - Outsourcing services is another link in the chain and might be a weak one, not necessarily deliberately.
- Dependency on outsourcing provider - The more functions that outsourcing is doing in your business the bigger dependency you have in the outsourcing provider. This dependency is a risk for your business if for some reason the outsourcing provider will decide to change the rules of the game.
- Connections with clients might be weakening - In case that your customer receives the service from the outsourcing, you lose the intensive direct communication with the customer and this might lead to a decline of commitment level and losing feedback from your clients.
When to Outsource Companies can make a use of an outsourcing service as a growth engine or as a way to access technology or a way to reduce expenses and costs or a way to reduce administrative overhead in order to focus on business core. Companies should not outsource any strategic role. All strategic roles should be held by in-house employees.
