However, there are certain activities and processes that are needed to ensure that the procurement process is effective and the appropriate goods and/or services are acquired.

This is a crucial factor, because we are proposing a bold change and employees need to be accompanied and motivated. We have to make sure the provider knows our philosophy and culture.

The basic premise of outsourcing is that a specialist organization can perform a particular service more efficiently than can internal operations because a specialist organization has an inherent advantage in producing and delivering a service. Superior technology, management skills, or economies of scale may contribute to this perception. The type of sourcing relationship depends on whether a long-term or short-term need exists.

For long-term services, the vendor has full responsibility for delivering the service; the outsourcer provides only a liaison.
