SUMMARY:Insourcing vs. Outsourcing IT: Not An Either/Or Decision
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nBetween insourcing\, outsourcing\, and every possible hybrid configuration in between\, it can be tough to know which IT management strategy would serve your organization best.\n \nOptimal 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.\n \nThis session is designed to help set your association down that first path.\n  \nLearning Objectives: \nCategorize the various components of IT management\n \nExamine the operational risks and opportunities tied to each component\n \nCompare common management models: insourced\, outsourced\, or co-managed IT\n \nOutline key variables to consider when choosing the right model for your association\n \n \n \n
