Outsourcing: A Strategic Advantage?

Outsourcing may provide tremendous advantages for firms. It may allow companies to specialize, reduce costs, and focus narrowly on the core competencies that they deem strategic; however, companies also have to think about what they may lose both qualitatively and quantitatively. For example, when outsourcing, managers need to be certain that what they source from outside is not a key component of their value proposition.

A way to reduce those risks is to use an approach called vertical integration. The meaning of vertical integration is developing the ability to produce goods or services previously purchased or to actually buy a supplier or a distributor. It can take two forms: backward and forward. These forms refer to how the corporation moves in its supply chain to pursue the vertical integration. If the movement is towards the suppliers, it is called backward integration. Conversely, it is known as forward integration.

Using the module readings, online library resources, and the Internet, research outsourcing. Based on your research, response to the following:

What are the risks and benefits of the outsourcing approach?

What are the strategic advantages of outsourcing to vertically integrated firms?

Write your initial response in 300 words. Your response should be thorough and address all components of the discussion question in detail, include citations of all sources, where needed, according to the APA Style, and demonstrate accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation

The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion.

At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Friday of each week. Two additional responses are required after Friday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.

The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.

Your manager has heard the term network risk management. He is not sure what it entails. Before you tell him what it is, you want to be certainly that you have all of the factors. Research network management and answer the following questions for your manager:

  • Explain to your manager what it is.
  • Explain how network risk can be mitigated.
  • Why do you think it is important? 

In your own words, please post a response to the Discussion Board and comment on other postings. You will be graded on the quality of your postings.

For assistance with your assignment, please use your text, Web resources, and all course materials.

Summative Assessment: Assessing Instructional Systems

/in /by

 

Assignment Content

  1. Assess the instructional systems in your educational setting using Standard 4, “Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment” of the Professional Standards for Educational Leaders, 2015 from the National Policy Board for Educational Administration (NPBEA).

    Note: While the professional standards were written to guide the practice of educational leaders, the NPBEA report explains that the standards are not intended to prescribe specific actions; rather, their application should be adapted “to be most effective in particular circumstances and contexts” (p. 4). As such, you will need to modify your application of Standard 4 to assess the instructional systems—not the current leadership—in your educational setting.

    Share your assessment discoveries in a paper in which you provide detailed responses to the following questions:

    • What positive and/or negative findings did you discover in your educational setting in relationship or comparison to the standards?
    • How do these findings support or detract from the mission, vision, and culture in your educational setting?
    • What are the potential implications to the other professional standards?
    • Your assignment should fully address each question, not exceed 2 double-spaced pages, and reflect proper APA formatting for all citations. A title page is not required.

      Submit your assignment.
