Description:

Outsourcing has become a popular sourcing strategy to meet the challenges of today’s hypercompetitive marketplace and challenging economy. However, outsourcing is only one point along a broad spectrum of strategic sourcing choices. For some organizations, in-sourcing offers the best solution, especially when:

• Outsourcing is not a viable solution option
• Current outsourced services are no longer effective and the company decides to repatriate services
• A widely decentralized organization moves towards a centralized structure, thus presenting an opportunity for a shared services model
• A part of the organization has implanted a best practice solution for the services that can be leveraged across the broader organization

Everest has identified a number of considerations that affect the success of in-sourcing under different scenarios, including change management, knowledge transfer and demand management issues. Success often depends on being able to carefully match the demands of the project with supportable benefits and acceptable risk, especially given the wide range of alternatives available.

Join Everest leaders Robert Joslin, Principal, and Betty Breukelman, Engagement Director, for an interesting and insightful webinar to explore the decision tree behind different in-sourcing solution options and learn how “outsourcing” internally can help streamline processes, leverage internal business capabilities, and drive value.
