Outsourcing Management

"Responsibility can't be outsourced"! Service providers have to be pro-actively managed.

Challenge

Outsourcing is common and increasing as businesses focus on their core value add. But outsourcing has serious implications for your business because you remain regulatory liable while loosing day-to-day control and visibility.

Regulators impose very strict rules on outsourcing, whether within a group or outside. The rules cover all stages of outsourcing, from selection to ongoing monitoring and termination.
