Progressive companies and university programs have recently begun to rethink outsourcing models. In Vested Outsourcing, Kate Vitasek has created a model that will improve outsourcing procedures much the way Six Sigma and Lean improved production processes in the 80s and 90s. Based on a research study with the University of Tennessee and the United States Air Force, Vitasek has identified the top 10 flaws in most outsourced business models and shows organizations how to rethink their outsourcing relationships in a way that will lower costs, improve service, and increase innovation. This revised edition includes updated case studies and a new introduction.
