  4. Why outsource? • Non-responsive IT department missing delivery dates = lost market opportunities. • Difficulties to catch up with Technology changes and innovation • Shrinking IT CAPEX • Own IT organization does not provide industry best practices and processes • Multi-IT vendor environment = resources spent into managing contracts • Need to focus on core business.

  5. Who does it and why • Economies of scale and scope • Arbitrage: labor, skills and infrastructure

  6. Outsourcing guidelines 1 of 2 • Answer this: “why do you want to do it?” • Consider any activity and processing that: • Is rule based • Is transactional • Is repetitive • Is not core • Has high volumes • You can measure properly • Don’t touch Strategic differentiators

  7. Outsourcing guidelines 1 of 2 Managing your outsourcer • Pay attention to SLA • Check regulations on the issue and outsourcer compliance • Verify security of data transfers and processing • Ask for referrals • Check reaction time and quality to your requests

  8. My Experience at Axonite • Axonite is about enabling the “real-time enterprise” with mobile messages. • We bridge business processes to real people in 6 seconds. • We connect Enterprise applications and databases to mobile phones. • Challenges we encountered, despite clear value proposition: • Enterprise pricing expected to be same as retail pricing. • “I can do that too” and TCO • Data quality

  9. How it works, actually • Let's see a quick live demo. • If you want to be part of it, please send a SMS with command ‘N’ and your first name to: 0788 555 555 Example: ‘N Gabi’
