What is Red Mountain’s core competency?
Consider the following four potential outsourcing
candidates. For each one, indicate
• The potential risks to be considered
• What type or types of outsourcing
arrangements would be the best fit
• What type of management oversight is best
suited for each of the following situations:
Option A: Outsourcing all standard lab
supplies to a full-service supplier
rather than using 20 suppliers as
is done today.
Option B: Outsourcing the development and
ongoing updates/maintenance of a
software system to track the results
of all tests for government analysis,
and provide a data base for
statistical analysis.
Option C: Outsourcing some unique tests that
customers request on average of
3 times a year in total.
Option D: Outsourcing the payroll processing
and management, including time
cards; tracking vacation, sick days
and holidays; issuing regular
paychecks, bonuses, and all
employee reimbursement.
