HR leaders must know how to thread their way through the ins and outs of outsourcing before their organizations can build an effective HR solution.
Although HR professionals have been using outsourcing in one way or another for many years, the trend continues to gather steam. A growing number of organizations are outsourcing at least some of their HR functions.
Some point to increasing cost pressures or the need to relieve staff of their administrative burden. Others say they are looking to improve their focus, access first-rate capabilities, share risks and rewards, keep up with rapidly evolving technology, deal with increasing regulatory and compliance requirements and/or to better manage continuous change.
This article looks at the current state of outsourcing -- what HR is outsourcing now and why.
Why Organizations Outsource: The Fact and the Fiction
Most HR departments have many common expectations and perceptions about outsourcing -- not all of which are true.
When viewed objectively, Sibson, a strategic HR consulting division of The Segal Co., has observed that outsourcing actually does:
Increase efficiency. It allows organizations to take advantage of what others have learned. They already have found ways to improve efficiency and have solved many of the problems that other companies are now experiencing.
Free internal resources and allow HR practitioners to be more strategic. Instead of entering data, crunching numbers and pushing paper, HR can focus on core/non-administrative functions. Offloading the administrative work maximizes the organization's resources.
Offer access to expertise. Organizations that outsource gain access to know-how they probably do not possess. They tap into a broad network of experienced people and best practices.
There are, however, some common misconceptions about outsourcing, including the belief that it can and will in every situation:
Cut costs. Although outsourcing will provide cost savings for some organizations (mostly those that are very large and extremely inefficient), in most cases, it is dollar-for-dollar cost neutral.
Take an organization with hundreds of people in HR: If it can save just 5 percent of the $100 million dollars it spends on HR, it will save $5 million. But a company with only 10 people in HR is not going to pay for the service by shifting the work off one or two employees. What will happen is that the department will gain an increase in benefits or services -- more bang for the buck.
Keep up with the latest technology. Many HR departments are stuck with old technology and find it difficult and expensive to upgrade. Outsourcers, however, are expected to keep up with technology and provide the service at a reasonable cost.
This is true for some vendors, but not all. It is up to the organization to check and manage the relationship correctly.
Provide improved and additional services. As with technology, this is true to some extent. While the organization can get improved services, it will have to negotiate for them and they will come at a cost.
Share risk. Although it is somewhat true that risk is shared between the HR department and the outsourcer, this is typically mitigated by the contract, and that is what determines where risk stops and starts, particularly around compliance efforts. In almost all cases, the risk stays with the organization.
Why Some Organizations Choose Not to Outsource
In our experience, some HR departments prefer not to outsource because they:
Cannot justify the outsourcing fees. Outsourcing may cost more, but the organization will get more. The question is, what does the organization need, and can it afford more?
Have a competitive or strategic advantage in a particular function. If an organization does something particularly well, it has little to gain and much to lose by outsourcing it.
Fear losing control. While it is true that some control must be surrendered in any outsourcing relationship, processes can be established to ensure the organization has all the control it needs. Nevertheless, some HR departments prefer to play their cards close to the vest.
Already have the investment, infrastructure and expertise in place to perform these duties. The organization may have already made a large capital expenditure in people, process and/or technology and has costs to recover.
Believe their internal staff and systems are not ready. This is often a cultural issue. Some HR departments are not prepared for this kind of change.
Do not have the resources and skills they need to manage external vendors. They have HR practitioners, but outsourcing calls for relationship managers -- a different skill set.
Think outsourcing would be culturally unacceptable. In many cases, organizations have never outsourced because it conflicts with their practiced business policies.
Cannot find "suitable" outsourcers. Although in some cases this is just an excuse, some organizations are looking for something that does not exist. For instance, they may want to outsource the distribution of electronic files for data exchange and nothing else, which is not possible.
Have unusually high security requirements. This is largely a matter of perception. Most outsourcers have very high standards in place and pass multiple audits. Yet HR information is very sensitive and some organizations still believe they have stronger firewalls than anybody else. In short, they do not want anyone else managing their data.
What Are Organizations Outsourcing?
HR departments can outsource their technology, their people and/or their processes. The most common approach for mid-sized organizations is to outsource their technology and a part of their processes. As shows, the most popular process to outsource is 401(k) plan management, followed by pensions and benefits.
What the Data Shows
How do organizations like insourcing vs. outsourcing? Some of the findings are surprising. As demonstrates, when it comes to HR solutions (technology, people and process), HR departments that outsource say it has allowed them to avoid new information technology/capital expenditures and reduce software implementation times.
Those that use in-house solutions say it has improved employee productivity and made it easy to integrate new services.
The employee productivity example is particularly interesting because it is contrary to what most HR professionals think: that outsourcing will improve productivity. In this instance, the portion of organizations with in-house solutions that say productivity has improved is actually 20 percentage points higher than those that have outsourced.
Conclusion
HR has evolved a great deal in recent years, moving away from administrative work to become a respected function and a partner in the organization's business. Now, it is becoming a business leader that is ROI-focused and technology savvy.
Outsourcing is one of the levers HR has used to move along this path. Although the reasons to insource or outsource HR processes, technology or people continue to vary from organization to organization, outsourcing remains a popular approach for delivering HR services.

Engineering and architectural outsourcing at boom
Domination of India software industry doesn’t need introduction any more. India software development and support services are catering the industry in the best possible manner. And making these more complimentary is the outsourcing process of services and support to India. Big shots gun Like US and UK are outsourcing their work to India. And in the process of outsourcing each and every single work is outsourced and architectural and engineering outsourcing is vital part of this outsourcing process.
Engineering and architectural outsourcing implies producing drawings in India where as the designers are far there in other countries waiting for the drawings produced in India. This is called on-site (design base) where as the production site is called off-shore. As Indian brains are best in the industry countries like US, Europe and Australia are outsourcing engineering and architectural designs and work. They are open to Indian market and this is making our economy more booming and strong.
Successful engineering outsourcing has following points for success:
Great brains at minimum budget: Engineering outsourcing is not an easy job and these engineering designs and work needs lot of input. The ontime delivery and throughput is must for the timely success of the project. Which is very much essential to make any project successful? And keeping in mind the budget and the duration of work involved, Indian market offers best man power with brilliant brains and less costing. Delivering the quality engineering drawings and work at the right time .The main reason for engineering outsourcing to India.
Motivational factors: Great Indian brains are more motivated showing more productivity for higher rewards and remuneration. As the cost difference between onsite and offshore has great difference. People on offshore production center are highly paid and show more productivity.
Quality and standard: As engineering outsourcing, engineering works, engineering designs needs great perfection and quality. World knows that India brains are hard to find. And work standards are very competitive and error free. Indians show great level of professionalism, in each and every department of services .Getting the best quality and timely works lure these countries to outsource engineering and architectural work to India.
Pricing: As the pricing of quality work, design and development is very much cheaper in countries like India. Countries like US and Europe get their work delivered at low price.
Brain drain: As due to bad infrastructure and economy, India suffers brain drain, but due to engineering outsourcing. Indian brains will not be going to leave their country as they will be lured by good salary and prospects by these companies. They will also have all options open to visit the on. Thus attracting the best talent to them these engineering outsourcing firm benefits to maximum.
A Recipe For Outsourcing Your Software Development
Outsourcing your software development can save you time and money if you know what you need. Too often US companies attempt to outsource without a good understanding of what their software should do, and this is the biggest cause of outsourcing failure. It is unreasonable to expect your outsourcing team to have a menu of software, pre-prepared, so you can just select the items you want.
Ever go to a restaurant with a picky eater? They tell the waiter in excruciating detail how they want their food prepared. And heaven forbid that the food arrives different from what was requested! Back to the kitchen it goes to be "fixed" to make the picky eater happy.
Sometimes US companies hire an outsourced partner as if they were going to a restaurant. They select the cuisine based on the flavor of the technology they require. Chinese .NET or Indian Java? How about some Russian C++? Unfortunately there is rarely a menu for the exact items you might like to order from an outsourced team.
Are you approaching outsourcing your software like you are walking into a restaurant? Are you expecting the outsourcing team to advise you, like an attentive waiter, on the way your software should look, be prepared and presented to your customers?
Instead, bring your own recipe when you start work with an outsourcing team. Unlike your dining experiences, you cannot ask for the daily special. You have to provide a specific description of what you would like to have, and how it should be prepared. Without such a recipe, your outsourced software development efforts can be starved for success.
Poorly specified software is often the result when "subject matter experts" are involved. Subject matter experts, or SMEs, know a lot about a particular subject, like IC design, business process workflow, inventory management, etc., but very little about designing software. SMEs can struggle to get their ideas encoded in the software. They need to work with someone that knows the best way to design and develop software.
Sometimes, there is a fear of getting bogged down in the details. Since some software executives are great with people, they feel much more comfortable hiring a person to handle the details. They know how to manage a person here, better than they can manage an offshore team of programmers in a remote offshore location.
One Accelerance client is in this situation. The CEO wants to outsource the development of a new software product. But there is no specification. In this case Accelerance is acting as a virtual CTO, responsible for the design, and development of the client's software.
The client is essentially saying, "Design the software for me, and I'll tell you if it matches what I am thinking." This can work because the cost of outsourcing is so low that rework and multiple design iterations are affordable.
This type of arrangement only works when paying on a Time and Materials basis. There is no way to offer fixed pricing because the end product is not defined.
Of course, not having a specification may not stop you from asking for a fixed price bid! In this case, you can outsource the creation of a specification that defines your software for a fixed price. Then the resulting complete design specification is used to create a second fixed price bid for writing your software.
Another factor comes into play when you pay a fixed price amount for a software design specification. You usually have to pay at least half up front. This is to protect the outsourcing company from delivering a specification for creating the software and then not getting paid.
Because software design often occurs at the beginning of a relationship, both parties seek to minimize their risk. You minimize your risk by selecting an outsourcing team with a proven track record and great references. The outsourcing team reduces their risk by getting partial (sometimes full) payment before starting.
There are multiple deliverables that should be produced during the design phase of creating your software, whether you do it yourself, or outsource the design:
* Marketing Requirements
* Storyboard Demo
* Functional Specification
* Multiple Release Milestone Schedule
* Detailed Task Schedule for First Release
* Detailed Design Specification (optional)
Unfortunately, software development has not progressed to the point where ready-made modules are available to order and combined to create your software. There is not yet a menu of choices available to anyone that is hungry for new software. Instead, you must provide your own recipe for what you need. The good news is low cost outsourced software design and development resources are now available to create your custom software to meet your exact specifications.

Recruitment Outsourcing
There are of course, certain reasons driving people to start outsourcing human resources abroad. One of the most obvious reasons lies in the low cost of recruitment. Recruitment outsourcing is also gaining popularity because it makes the whole process faster. Besides, outsourcing centers offer enhanced recruitment quality. The respondents presently delegate the recruitment operations, connected with background checks, sourcing, screening and testing, application tracking systems, and name generation.
Despite the growing number of unemployed and those, willing to find a job, the recruiting process has not become easier. The great amount of applicants only add up to the job of the human resources team. The increased number of cvs of those, who do not clearly match the expectations of the future employer, makes the hiring process much longer and more complicated. At the same time, the qualified applicants may be waiting in the long list and simply be employed by other agencies or companies. Also, the expenses of the recruitment department may be rather limited by the senior executives. If so, it is high time to think about the recruitment outsourcing as a way to reduce the costs and free up resources for more important activities.
Recruitment outsourcing is an important operation of the business, which cannot be underestimated. The success of each business depends on the high expertise and professionalism of the employees, working for a company. Most recruitment outsourcing centers clearly understand this and have a very strict attitude towards the possible employees. They strive at presenting candidates, who are 100 percent of what the company is searching for, or at least 99 percent. Recruitment outsourcing centers can also take care of leadership development, performance management, succession planning, as well as a great number of other HR functions.
New Trends In Business
Trend watching in business has come a long way from being a trend in itself to being a full time profession. Trend watching helps companies by preparing them to adopt new trends in their field of business. Trends change quickly without limitations, but the lack of knowledge and timing about changing trends can result in disaster if a company tries to make a foray into a business whose time has not yet come. Accurate judgment about a trend's longevity is important before taking the plunge and investing.
HOT TRENDS IN BUSINESS
How Do You Spot New And Hot Trends?
Don't restrict yourself to music, sports or the kind of stuff targeted only to the young. A newspaper or a TV commercial will conclusively prove to you whether or not something is trendy. Just by this discussion, you can tell that getting into music retailing is trendy. Buying new cars is a trend with youth of the day.
Outsourcing Business Processes:
Outsourcing of business processes is a big trend among large corporations. Simple but labor-intensive jobs are outsourced for increased production and cheap labor. If someone is looking for opportunities in this field, he has definitely hit a goldmine! Simple things like "voice to text" data conversion, data entry, engineering processes and content development are a few hot trends.
Corporate Restructuring:
The opening of trade barriers and the advent of the WTO (World Trade Organization) has led to a shift in the corporate mindset. Downsizing and relocating are new trends today. Corporations, in their quest to survive and grow (don't forget, growth is the mantra for survival), are also moving across borders and applying new management systems like Six Sigma for all-round quality improvement. By doing this, many companies have proven that it is indeed possible to save money and improve quality at the same time.
Intellectual Property Rights:
I have chosen this not because this is new but for its longevity. It will live longer as time goes on. One of the major ways of securing your future is by protecting your property, both physical as well as intellectual. With the advent of the Internet, this trend will only get stronger.
Incubation Of Start-Ups:
Who had heard of an incubator for a business some ten years ago? Start-ups that were just armed with great ideas, no money and no experience to get their business up and running were getting the money they needed as venture capitalists arrived on the scene. They invested and incubated small businesses until they grew big enough to fly on their own. The focus was undoubtedly on technology start-ups with an orientation towards product development.
This business trend was started by many current big names. (For example: Google and Sun Microsystems).
Six Sigma For Complete Quality:
The advent of Six Sigma methodology is a sun rising on the quality management horizon. This breakthrough methodology has already saved huge amounts of money for companies and customers by removing defects in every corner of production. Many have achieved what could have not been possible without implementing Six Sigma.

IT Services Outsourcing When You Don't Know Everything
IT services outsourcing is what you need to do when, not if, your prospects ask for products and services that you are not able to deliver. Many new business owners think they need to know everything. They fear not being able to offer every service under the sun.
The great thing about the computer industry is that there are plenty of people you can use for IT services outsourcing. When you first start up, your concentration needs to be on getting business. You need to spend time networking and relationship marketing.
In order to have the time to do this you need to rely on IT services outsourcing - there just simply is not enough time for you to learn everything you will be asked to deliver.
Rather than lose the relationship, you want to be able to offer your prospects the services they need. To do this you essentially have two alternatives for IT services outsourcing:
Work out referral relationships with other niche technology providers in your area
Set up partnerships and subcontractor relationships
The quickest and easiest way to set up your IT services outsourcing is to set up partnerships or subcontractor relationships. This is a fast and efficient way to deal with the issue.
Of course, if you continue to get lots of requests for the same type of IT services, then you should probably consider getting the skills to offer it in-house. When there is a large enough need then the time and money invested make good sense. Until that time though, IT services outsourcing is your best option.
Bottom Line on IT Services Outsourcing
Like it or not you can't know everything. When prospects ask for services you don't offer, rather than lose the relationship, look to IT services outsourcing instead. Build referral relationships with other niche IT service providers or set up subcontractor or partnership arrangements. By doing this you maintain your client and leave yourself open to the possibility of offering the service yourself down the road.

Compromise agreement
In the United Kingdom, a compromise agreement is a specific type of contract, regulated by statute, between an employer and its employee (or ex-employee) under which the employee receives a negotiated financial sum in exchange for agreeing that he or she will have no further claim against the employer as a result of any breach of a statutory obligation by the employer. A compromise agreement is generally used where an employee has been dismissed.
Compromise agreements are the only means whereby an employee can waive statutory claims such as unfair dismissal, discrimination or redundancy. The agreement will only be valid where (i) it is in writing and (ii) the employee has received independent advice from a solicitor who has professional indemnity insurance. An employee cannot compromise potential future claims, though claims that have already arisen, unknown to the employee, can be waived.
In practice, a compromise agreements will also contain a waiver of any claim for breach of contract as well as statutory claims, though such a waiver does not need to satisfy the same requirements in order to be valid.
The advantage for the employer is that they are able to draw a line under an employee's departure and feel protected from future claims. The advantage for the employee is the financial sum received in return.
