Outsourcing, Insourcing and Leveraging Business Operations

Chapter 2 in Outsourcing, Insourcing and IT for Enterprise Management, 2003, pp 25-48 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Outsourcing and insourcing have been defined in Chapter 1, within the context of the new economy. The Internet was taken as an example of the fast-moving business world where new technology replaces the old at a furious pace, leading to the development of virtual companies (see section 2) where outsourcing becomes the policy of whole sectors of the economy. As we will see in this chapter, however, indiscriminate outsourcing can be fatal to enterprise management.
