Module 5 – Application & Analysis Assignment
Find an article about a company that is making or has made the decision to outsource a part of its
business operations. Use any news source (e.g., www.nytimes.com, www.usatoday.com, etc.). If you
work for a company that is considering or has recently made the decision to outsource, you may use
that company instead of searching for an article.
Respond to the following questions based on your knowledge from this week’s course material and
the article you read.
1) State the name of the company you selected and your source of information (e.g., link to news
source, employer, etc.). Describe the company and business operation the company is looking to
outsource or recently outsourced.
2) Why is the company considering outsourcing (or decided to outsource)?
3) List the types of revenues that might be impacted by the outsourcing decision. It is likely that you
will not know the specific revenues. You should make reasonable guesses about what revenue
would be associated with the business operation being outsourced.
4) List the types of costs that might be impacted by the outsourcing decision. It is likely that you will
not know the specific costs. You should make reasonable guesses about what costs would be
associated with the business operation being outsourced.
5) List the qualitative factors that could influence the company’s decision on whether to outsource this
business operation. Again, you need to make reasonable guesses about the qualitative factors that
might influence the company’s decision to outsource.
