Why Outsource? Outsourcing, simply defined, is the procuring of services or products from an outside supplier or manufacturer in order to cut costs. Many companies already outsource plenty of services - janitorial assistance, landscaping, mail services, even large scale product manufacturing. More recently, local industries are now successfully outsourcing services that were previously considered in-house groups or departments - contract laboratory work, calibration, environmental health and safety, even information technology (IT) services. Cost savings alone can be enough to encourage many companies to consider outsourcing, but there are other good reasons that are often overlooked. Benefits to Outsourcing Flexibility - Staff up and down quickly when needed, painlessly avoiding the sometimes tedious and dreaded processes of hiring and firing. Productivity - Adding necessary personnel quickly allows you to get more accomplished, faster than ever before. Expertise - Adding experienced personnel to your staff when situations demand it could be vitally important to your company's success. Time - React to and resolve problems quickly with appropriate personnel. In emergency situations this could save your business. Direct and Indirect Costs Cost savings come in many forms, so when calculating the cost of hiring in-house personnel versus outsourcing, consider the following: Salary Bonuses Stock Incentive Plans Payroll Taxes Medical, Dental, Life Insurance Workers Compensation, Disability Insurance 401k, Retirement plans Vacation Pay Holiday Pay Sick Pay Some of the indirect costs often overlooked include: Tax Reporting General/Professional Liability Insurance Performance Reviews Management Time Education and Training Conflict Resolution Tool and Shop Supplies Office and Shop Space Utilities Automobile Expenses Employee Assistance Programs Why Biosources?
