Armed with key drivers, effectiveness measures, financial analysis and provider viability, Avasant develops the most likely sourcing scenarios to consider. Working with your team, each of the scenarios is examined in detail to determine how well each would meet your overall requirements. A key part of scenario planning is to consider whether major elements of each service area could be delivered off-site or off-shore in `order` to take advantage of labor arbitrage. For example, we match your key drivers to potential offshore scenarios for IT applications work, help desk services and increasingly, remote network and server monitoring. Some business processes lend themselves very well to an offshore model. Balancing costs vs. risks, Avasant advisers help you determine the right functions and the right mix to effectively address your needs. This scenario planning activity usually results in one or two scenarios that are most appropriate for your unique circumstances. The Avasant team then performs a risk analysis on the best fit scenario(s).
In today's heightened regulatory and governance environments, the assessment and identification of risk has never been more important. In risk identification, accuracy and clarity are paramount. With a seasoned team that regularly works with both mid-sized and Fortune 500 companies, we have developed extensive risk identification tools, as well as mitigation strategies, to enable you to address risks as a key part of making sound sourcing strategy decisions.
