Outsourcing to Greenlight

Outsourcing is a major step for any organisation and its affected staff, we believe that this should be done in full consultation with staff, after a period of negotiation between companies has determined a real win-win benefit exists. Each outsourcing opportunity considered by Greenlight will be handled by one of our board level members, each of whom has in depth experience of outsourcing.

Why do people outsource?

Some of the typical reasons for outsourcing are listed here, if any of them apply to you then there may be value in at least having the conversation.

• Too much dependence on key individuals, a need to spread and thus minimise the risk
• Overhead reduction in a non-core business unit
• Below critical mass team that would benefit from merging with a locally based  team to improve service
• Internal team with no career path for key staff, clearly resolved by joining an IT organisation

When is a good time to outsource?

The message here is simple: When all parties concerned, the business, the stakeholders, your customers, the staff and the retained employees are all clear on how the outsourcing benefits them, thats when to outsource.  

This can be a long process but years of experience tells us that planning is essential.
