    Measures of successful outsourcing

    The HR department traditionally has been a cost-consuming function, but is
    now slowly contributing significantly to a company’s bottom line. This has
    led
    to outsourcing tasks like payroll, benefits, education/training and
    development, recruiting, personnel administration, performance management,
    career development, organizational development and workforce management.

    The outsourcing market is beginning to see HR as a preferred choice. A
    GartnerFocus Report echoes that thought: “Only those companies ready to
    address thenecessary transformation of their HR processes will find that
    outsourcing will bring access to world-class processes, competitive
    advantage.”

    Technology compatibility, confidentiality and cost are other challenges that
    both sides must work on. Mutual trust is critical, as it’s a long haul
    commitment. It is imperative that senior management are involved right from
    the beginning and also drives the initiative. In addition, a clear
    understanding of requirements and expectations from both sides is an
    important platform in building the relationship. Compatibility in culture
    and values along with an open and flexible approach go a long way in
    ensuring
    that the outsourcing venture is a successful one.
