| Abstract: | Outsourcing of information technology is a growing phenomenon in the developed economies. However, it is not often managed as strategically as it might be. Drawing on evidence from 30 case histories in the UK, this article presents the basis for a strategic approach. It identifies the critical factors for outsourcing, provides a framework for decision making based on organizational experiences, and discusses the additional factors that need to be born in mind as a reality check, to ensure that the information technology outsourcing decision can be delivered upon. |
