Posted on

Are you keeping a hold on your outsourcing goals as you are not sure about the right time to outsource? Are you worried if outsourcing is not your cup of tea? These top 10 tips about when to outsource can give you a clear picture if your company is cut out for outsourcing right now:

You have business activities/ business processes that are not a part of your core competency. Such business processes can be easily outsourced to an outsourcing vendor who specializes in providing that particular service.

  1. Are there some business processes that you try to do yourself or are there processes that require you to hire and train new resources that have prior experience in the field. Outsourcing such business processes can save you from the unnecessary expenses.
  2. You don’t require a particular business process to be completed on a day to day to basis. Maybe you require software testers, network engineers or payroll professionals only occasionally. In such a situation, you can outsource such processes as and when required instead of hiring professionals on a full time basis.
  3. You don’t have technical expertise and require technical help only for a particular period of time or for a particular project. In such a case, you can outsource your technical services to an outsourcing professional who can provide you with technical help as and when required.
  4. Your project requires you to invest in expensive software/technology. If you have to buy expensive software only for a particular project, then that project is better outsourced as you can save on making such investments.
  5. You are running short of resources and require accurate services within a quick turnaround time. When you outsource your services to an experienced vendor you can be assured that your services will be delivered to you at a fast pace, with no compromise on quality.
  6. You want to save on your operating costs but don’t want to cut down on your level of quality. When you outsource work to an outsourcing provider you can save more than half on your operating cost while getting access to quality services.
  7. You don’t have the required experience in a particular business process but at the same time you can’t do away with this business process. In this case, outsourcing can help. You can outsource the process that you are not comfortable performing in-house and get access to quality services.
  8. You don’t have the required time to carry out a particular service as you are busy with other services that require your immediate attention. You can outsource your services and only check the end results, thereby helping you to save on time.
  9. You want to start concentrating on core business process but cant do away with certain business processes that are not a part of your core business but are still integral to the functioning of your company. Such process can be outsourced, so that you are free to channel your time and effort on your core business.
