Insourcing

Insourcing is an executive decision that’s often made to regain control over vital systems and processes. The idea of taking work from a service provider back in-house is a process that should be carefully measured. It requires meticulous planning, precise data points and strong attention to risk management. Just as outsourcing your processes was a significant effort, bringing them back can be just as laborious and even higher risk.

Your organization will be successful by:

• Using the right advisory partner
• Creating a comprehensive detailed design
• Building a transition plan
• Leveraging existing resources through transition

Alsbridge knows that leadership will have to make difficult decisions about which business functions should be insourced, how to create and execute change management plans and how to manage transition and current provider obligations.

Pulling your systems or processes back in house has benefits:

• Greater control over resources
• Greater ability to control intellectual property
• Increased visibility of accountability within the organization

Our consultants have expertise and industry knowledge of insourcing IT, Human Resources (HR), Finance and Accounting (F&A), and other major industry business process functions. We’ll help you build plans and processes to address the mitigation of risks, manage transition and prepare for a host of other challenges that come with an insourcing effort. We’ll prepare your organization by working with you to create the right strategy and will ensure you have addressed some of the following:

• You have the proper facilities to bring the work in-house
• You have a proper asset inventory management system in place to manage hardware, software and other infrastructure demands
• There’s the right mix of talent and competencies available to take on the work
• You have training plans and programs in place to close any competency gaps and encourage an environment of continual education

We know outsourcing is not always the right answer for every process or technology, and is not always the right answer for every company. Alsbridge consultants have the expertise and analysis tools to help you create an insourciong plan that is right for you.
