The Outsourcing Handbook: How to Implement a Successful Outsourcing Process Mark J. Power

Outsourcing is now increasingly used as a competitive weapon in today's global economy. The Outsourcing Handbook is a step-by-step guide to the whole outsourcing process.

Highly practical, it provides an objective, repeatable process that allows organizations to maximize returns on outsourcing investments. Unlike most outsourcing books, it takes a process-oriented, actionable, and structured approach to understanding the intricacies of constructing, managing, and even terminating, an outsourcing engagement.
