Abstract:In recent years, information systems (IS) outsourcing has become so pervasive it can no longer be ignored. An important question is why firms choose to outsource IS work. This question has been considered from a number of perspectives. Lacity and Hirschheim, for example, showed how the dynamics of internal politics led to IS outsourcing the way it did. Loh and Venkatraman suggested that the outsourcing behavior of a prominent blue-chip company, such as Eastman Kodak, can lead to imitative behavior throughout the information systems community.
