Concerns
regarding the adoption of ISO 37500
The United States (ANSI) has not participated and
may not support ISO 37500
Large global corporations (buyers) may have already
defined their own outsourcing life cycle
Similarly, outsourcing providers and advisors have
defined their proprietary life cycle models
Several alternative models are already in the market
LSE, IAOP, IDC, NOA, etc.
ISO 37500 does not address issues of:
Security and privacy
Cloud sourcing
Social responsibility
