Outsourcing
Well i have never been convinced of Outsourcing. Especially for IT but it probably stands for other cases.
You have a team of poeple supporting the IT systems internally, they may not be great but usually they have a shed load of erxperience and they are a fixed cost.
If you Outsource you loose all (Or most) of the experience internally, meaning that you are totally at the mercy of the outsorucer. If IBM et all arte to be used as an example then probably after 3 months most of the "top" people in the constract will have moved on to the next Cluster f*** and you are left with mainly trainees and inexperienced staff.
As said by other people. Any changes, ANY CHANGES will be expensive.
