Outsourcing
IT
Making the Decision, Managing Expectations, and Measuring the Results
Renaissance
Hotel, 999 9th Street, NW
Washington, DC
April 17, 2001
Learn
how Outsourcing can help you use your IT resources effectively.
Agencies
are examining their core missions, mandates and competencies. As a
key strategy, outsourcing IT is becoming an increasingly viable option.
A major reason for doing so is the potential of accomplishing stronger
results, rather than maintaining functions in-house and expanding
staff.
Further, OMB Circular A-76 directs that government should privatize
non-mission critical functions, in accordance with the FAIR Act directive
that agencies accomplish their missions more efficiently and less
costly than contractors.
In the next five years agency staff attrition is projected to be 35%
of today’s government workforce through retirements and competition
with the private sector for valuable employees. Information technology
is transforming the way agencies function and communicate with the
public.
The decisions and strategies that agencies make and implement today
will have far-reaching implications. This practical program addresses
steps you need to consider in order to effectively address these critical
challenges.
