| According to a study commissioned by Deloitte
Consulting, "70% of survey participants say they had
significant negative experiences with outsourcing projects and now
exercise greater caution in approaching such deals." The study contends that participants initially engaged outsourcers to cut costs, simplify project execution, and provide expertise they lacked in-house. Instead of simplifying operations, the study says, many companies have found that outsourcing activities can introduce unexpected complexity, add cost and friction into the value chain, and require more senior management attention and deeper management skills than anticipated. |
