The key reasons that organizations outsource internal services include:
Outsource specialists have a better competency in delivering the process;
The workload for the process varies, making it difficult to effectively staff employees year round;
The process benefits from outside experiences;
Experienced specialists produce a higher quality result;
Independence from the politics of the organization improves the service; and
Experience means that outside providers can actually provide the service at a lower cost than doing it internally.
Outsourcing Benchmarking makes sense. Our clients have continually used our services to manage projects and facilitate the findings. We network over 5,000 process owners involved in Benchmarking and maintain relationships with key organizations that provide linkage to additional contacts. This allows us to forge out a custom group of Benchmark companies to meet very specific client needs.
