Insourcing vs. Outsourcing IT: Not An Either/Or Decision

June 11 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm EDT

Event Category:

Course Description:

Between insourcing, outsourcing, and every possible hybrid configuration in between, it can be tough to know which IT management strategy would serve your organization best.

Optimal Networks has spent 35 years helping associations design and refine their approach to IT management—including cases where we’ve “lost” business to internal hires. We’ve seen organizations thrive when their model is the right fit, and we’ve seen the costly disruptions that follow when it isn’t.

This session is designed to help set your association down that first path.

Learning Objectives:

Categorize the various components of IT management

Examine the operational risks and opportunities tied to each component

Compare common management models: insourced, outsourced, or co-managed IT

Outline key variables to consider when choosing the right model for your association
