什么是外包? 释义
外包是一个战略管理模型,它是指一个公司将自己的某项业务流程转移到另一个公司。 换句话说,就是 让一个第三方服务商来执行公司日常的一项或多项业务功能。 对这个第三方服务商来说,就是内保(Insourcing)提供商的业务。 当一个公司的业务功能,本可以通过公司的内部力量来完成,却交给了公司外部组织来执行,该公司这时就采用了外包战略。
外包与转包(Subcontracting)的区别:转包着眼于具体的项目合同,而外包则是一种持续的战略行为。 外包既可以在同一地区,也可以在不同地区;既可以在同一国家,也可以在不同国家(离岸)。
外包的顶级形式甚至可能是,一个非常大的虚拟公司,它只有一名员工, 而这名员工就是公司老板本人。
为什么要将业务流程外包? 主要动机
外包最主要的动机是:
- 将组织力量集中于Core Competence[核心竞争力]上,使组织更富有竞争性。
- 降低成本,提高效率。
- 得以拥有其他特殊资源或能力。 比较: 3rd Party Logistics[3PL,第三方物流]
- 刺激、鼓励小企业发展、创新。
外包模式
现实中,至少有三种典型的外包模式:
- 共享服务中心(Shared Service Center)。 (如下所示)
- 企业分拆(Spin-Off)。 这一分拆的新公司为母公司的某一外包业务提供专门服务。
- 组织外外包(Outsourcing to an external organization)。 比较: Organization Chart[组织结构图]。
外包的其他潜在优点
- 不断更新地关注于核心业务。
- 依靠专门力量,减小经营风险。
- 提高客户满意度。
- 为员工提供了更多的职业选择和机会。
- 改善项目。
- 改善服务。
- 更新技能。
- 保持技能。
- 获得技能。
- 吸收技术。
- 提高成本、业绩等财物指标的清晰度。
- 降低成本。
- 运用金融工程学进行成本挥发管理。
- 资产转换。
- 资本投资回避。
