PURPOSE
Outsourcing involves transferring responsibility for carrying out an activity to an
outsourcer (supplier) for an agreed charge. The outsourcer provides services to ESCL
based on a mutually agreed service level, normally defined in a formal contract.
Many commercial benefits have been ascribed to outsourcing, the most common
amongst these being:
Reducing the organizations costs;
Greater focus on core business by outsourcing non-core functions;
Access to world-class skills and resources.
Despite outsourcing certain aspects of ESCL service delivery the control over the
outsourced process still lies with ESCL.
This procedure therefore, defines the controls, method and responsibility for
outsourcing in order to ensure that outsourced services conform to all clients, statutory
and regulatory requirements.
