Most everyone outsources some part of their technology operation for all sorts of reasons. There is a reason why the IT services industry is clipping along at well over $1B per day in the United States alone. More and more companies have discovered the benefits of outsourcing relative to the recruitment and maintenance of large internal IT staffs. In the early years, we all thought outsourcing was about saving money, but then we discovered the truth. Outsourcing is not only about saving money; it is about rerouting money from non-core to core activities.
