PREPARING FOR OUTSOURCING Understand Internal Constraints


Availability of Seed Money I need to reduce cost, this requires efficiency gains, efficiency gains require investments Structural Inflexibility Your current business and application architecture may not allow for simple and low cost ICT changes Time to Benefit Most quick-wins have already been explored over the last couple of years. Major initiatives have pay-backs seldom shorter than 24 36 months Business vs. IT Projects Most projects are invisible to the normal business users and do not directly contribute to business revenue generation Capacity & Know-How Are there sufficient internal resources available to drive the change in a timely fashion? Will heavy external resource usage kill the business case? Change Capacity Can the internal organization absorb this change now (ex. Overall moral, unions, etc.) Sustainability Can initiatives be maintained in light of business development?

PREPARING FOR OUTSOURCING Understand Partner Constraints


Criteria Financials Duration of Contract Assessment Service providers are mainly driven by volume, and to a lesser extend by margin and margin composition 3 years is standard, but will not allow time for fundamental transformations. 5 years gives more room for change In how far can the existing park be integrated into providers infrastructure & skill pool

Scope of Technology & Services

Demand Stability
Scope of Control Transformation Potential

In how far can demand for service delivery be accurately assessed?


How much insight & governance control does the client want to exert? Which service model will prevail? What are the potential synergies in terms of people, processes, infrastructure etc. What are the hand-back constraints? How will benefits be shared?

Follow-up Business

What else might be offered to the client (ex. Business process outsourcing?)

PREPARING FOR OUTSOURCING Do not forget TUPE


TUPE stands for The Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 1981. The Regulations were introduced to safeguard employees rights in the event of a transfer of an undertaking, business or part of a business. This includes: The obligation to inform and consult all employees in scope transfer Transferee inherits all claims and statutory rights Continuity of employment is preserved for employees Employees transfer on their existing terms and conditions of employment Transfer connected dismissals are automatically unfair

Summary of IT Capabilities (Summer 2000) IT Capability Performance


Inadequate Best Practice

Summary of Issues
Fundamental issues in the partnership between IT and the business Highly reactive organisation, unintegrated silos, limited coherence of vision Beyond a few well-intentioned individuals, there is little evidence of architecture leadership Major issues recognised; but change is hugely challenging. There is still a lack of partnership between SC and ISSM Legacy is reasonably stable - but are we ready for e? Some poor financial controls; cultural issues inhibit getting best value from IT people.
