ITEC 610 Week 7 Reflective Learning
This week about the fedscope the goverment site is an interesting one, the trend that i focus on was federal Trade Commission. The topic about the globalization challenges and off shore outsoucing is a good one. After reading through many comments posted from the discussion class room, i see some reasons why company decided to outsources job oversee, but if that is the best solution for them i am not quiet sure, but from my understanding i think outsourcing take job away from the people that really here in US and pay taxes to government. The global chanllenging discussion i see and understand from different perspective how a political and cultral systems affect globalization.

Niyi,
ReplyDeleteI hope that you got a broader perspective on offshore outsourcing. BTW, UMUC has a course on that very topic:
ISAS 620 Information Systems Sourcing Management (3)
A study of how best to make and implement appropriate decisions in providing information systems to an organization. Focus is on the frameworks, tools, and techniques for making such decisions. Topics include the “make or buy” sourcing decision and various models of outsourcing, from the contracting of finite technical services through the use of off-the-shelf package software (including enterprise resource planning software) to the outsourcing of entire business processes. Processes and metrics used in the procurement and managing of outsourced services are also examined. Discussion also covers the phenomenon of “offshoring” (i.e., outsourcing business processes and functions to other countries) and its ramifications.
