Our website is intended to assist you in learning about the advantages of outsourcing. We have white papers and a case study and a list of the common myths about outsourcing.

• We suggest you start with the paper: Why provide Customer Support? (pdf) The answer may seem obvious, but there may be more to justify Customer Support than you have considered.
• The myth area is intended to be fun and informative. It is dynamic with myths both added and removed on an occasional basis. If you have a favorite business myth, contact us and we may even post it.
• The cost comparison in the Case Study (pdf) may surprise you. The cost of providing support with an in-house staff is almost invariably higher than the same support provided through outsourcing.
• Why Outsource (pdf) is a list of reasons you may not have considered in determining whether to outsource your support function and the Outsource Primer (pdf) offers a set of criteria to consider if you are exploring outsourcing your support.
• The paper on Pay for Support (pdf) compares the methods of implementing a Pay for Support program and what works and what doesn’t.
