Von der hinteren Coverseite
Despite the rapid growth in Information Technology (IT) outsourcing - a market predicted to grow to over $150 billion by the year 2005 - most companies are still seeking the elusive 'added-value' they anticipated. Customers expect IT outsourcing to dismantle bureaucratic IT organizations into variable-cost service providers, to meet global IT skill shortages, and even to generate revenue with their IT suppliers. In short, IT outsourcing promises to transform IT functions into lean, dynamic groups that respond quickly to business needs and opportunities. But do customers actually achieve these business advantages? And if so, how? Based on in-depth case studies in organizations and six hundred CIOs surveyed in US, UK, Australia, Europe, and Japan, the authors found that most organizations still achieve modest goals of reducing costs and improving service. Organizations seeking more radical transformation through mega-outsourcing face greater risks and challenges. Findings clearly indicate that gaining a business advantage requires a comprehensive sourcing strategy including both insourcing and outsourcing. IT functions must first develop a set of core IT capabilities that must be insourced. A key success factor is the alignment of expectations among all these stakeholders to ensure that sourcing objectives are met; all too many disappointments with IT outsourcing are based on unrealistic expectations. By applying the frameworks and practices presented here, customers and suppliers can gain business advantage.
