Abstract

Outsourcing of project work is more and more common. In the past, many companies experienced poor results from outsourcing. This partly reflected the inability of the vendor companies to successfully deliver against the contract. However, it was also partly due to the inability of the client company to manage the outsourced relationship proactively. Many companies felt that if they outsourced the work, they also outsourced the problems. They also felt like they outsourced responsibility and accountability to the vendor.
