Where:

Webinar 


Speaker(s): Kit Burden , Lee Gluyas , Monica L. Thompson






WEBINAR PROGRAM
Why do outsourcing deals fail and what does failure look like?

Using case study examples, we will review:
  • The key causes of deal failure, including ineffective procurement and governance structures, misaligned objectives, failing to account for inevitable change and the ‘due diligence’ challenge
  • How failure manifests itself – failed transitions, scope creep, service level failures, breach and termination

What makes outsourcing deals successful?
Drawing from best practices and real-life examples, we will discuss what makes outsourcing deals successful:
  • Aligning procurement strategies with goals
  • Solution-oriented negotiation
  • Partnership governance models
  • Aligning incentives and objectives
