A business owner who has approximately 120 full-time employees is considering outsourcing (to India) as a means to reduce expenses. My questions are: 1> What departments are excellent candidates for outsourcing? 2> What kind of expense savings should be expected (%)? 3> What departments are not excellent candidates for outsourcing? Any additional comments that could provide practical insight into this area would be greatly appreciated.
