Outsourcing requires significant management focus if it is to deliver on its promise. Unfortunately, too many organizations believe that simply making the decision to outsource and selecting a vendor is enough to provide cost savings and productivity gains. This paper discusses what an organization can do to stay ahead. The benefits of project management offices have long been recognized as critical success factors in helping single projects or integrated programs achieve their goals more reliably. An innovative, new approach places management responsibility for vendor selection and management and outsourcing oversight in a sourcing office, essentially a project management office focused on vendor and outsourcing management.
