The Persuasion Lab with Martin Medeiros #89: Insourcing after Outsourcing
Negotiating a contract with a third party is simple; but what if you want to DIY?
How should you get started?
This episode will walk you through some sample questions organizations should ask themselves:
- What are the goals we want to achieve from outsourcing?
- What are our core competencies and which services or functions are not core?
- What would be the cross-functional impact of outsourcing?
- What functions and services can the outside vendor manage better?
- What are the most critical IT and data security issues?
- What criteria should we use to select ‘what’ to outsource?
- How much experience does my IT organization have managing outsourced engagements?
- Finance
- Audits should be done with credible third party
