Companies today face significant outsourcing and offshoring (O/O) risks. These risks can only increase as companies rely more than before on third parties and offshore entities for an increasing scope of business and information technology processes, rather than just for specific projects and back-office functions.

The eighth title in our Risk Intelligence series, this paper offers guidance for executives and managers who have a stake in the success of O/O initiatives, and provides a Risk Intelligent approach to address the risk and maximise the value of an O/O strategy.
