What is it?
Outsourcing is essentially taking non-core activities out of the organisation and using an external third-party to provide assistance or support. This in turn, allows your business to focus on its prime activity or purpose.

Outsourcing covers the entire business spectrum - at the lowest level offering a contracted functional service (e.g. payroll) and at a higher level offering a less tangible, but often strategically valuable service (e.g. Board-Level IT advice).

Why do you need to consider it?
IT Outsourcing is perhaps the most common of business disciplines that companies normally consider. Why? Because it makes sense to outsource core functions that are not differentiating your product or service.

It can cost a few hundred pounds a month, or a few thousand - depending upon the scale, type and scope of the agreement. There must be a clear and compelling commercial benefit; it may not be obvious (e.g. opportunity cost) but normally will be.
