There is an increasing trend for sound business reasons for managements of large and small companies alike, including the dot-coms, to concentrate their resources and energies on core business activities and strategies by availing and hiring external professional help for undertaking certain non-core activities, routine functions, processes and activities. Outsourcing has thus come to be recognised as a distinct class of service in itself prompted by considerations of cost control, judicious use of enterprise’s own human capital and conservation of its own valuable time and resources for focussing on sound business planning and execution of action for excelling in performance and profitability.
