Résumé :
The concept and practice of traditional outsourcing is certainly not a new concept. Globalisation, competition and other market pressures have driven more businesses to consider using logistics provider to increase efficiency and effectiveness [11]. Many companies have successfully used traditional outsourcing to lower costs and have improved the bottom line. However, unless the company’s efforts are unusually good, true competitive advantage is fleeting when competitors begin outsourcing and achieving similar results [2]. Some companies have discovered even greater returns are possible and are now using advanced form of outsourcing – intelligent outsourcing or smartsourcing, to drive new revenues, quicken time-to-market, and increase innovation [2]. This shift, from traditional outsourcing to intelligent outsourcing - smartsourcing which has become a competitive advantage and is likely over time to become a competitive necessity for all, will be analysed in this paper. KEY WORDS: logistics, growth, globalization, traditional outsourcing, innovation, intelligent outsourcing - smartsourcing

Résumé :
This study aims to identify the outsourcing levels of the main activities or processes carried out in a hotel and the main benefits perceived by hotel managers. It proposes a model that explores the impact of supplier innovation on the perceived benefits of outsourcing, the relationship between supplier innovation and outsourcing, and competitive capabilities related to cost, quality, flexibility, and delivery. A personal questionnaire was designed for the directors and managers of 114 hotels located in Egypt to achieve this objective. A structural model has been developed to test the hypotheses. The findings indicate that supplier innovation positively influences the perceived benefits of outsourcing. They also show that supplier innovation positively influences competitive capabilities related to quality, flexibility, and delivery. In contrast, outsourcing alone only influences the competitive capability related to cost, with no impact on other competitive capabilities. From a practical point of view, the study identified which activities are outsourced more often and which are not, as well as the main benefits of outsourcing perceived by managers. These results help managers determine which activities are outsourced in the hotel sector and how their hotel is positioned in outsourcing. This paper presents the first empirical study to analyse the relationship between supplier innovation's impact and outsourcing benefits. It is also the first empirical research to consider the relationship between outsourcing and supplier innovation and competitive capabilities.

Résumé :
Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the levels of the main hotel outsourcing activities to identify the factors that determine the use of external suppliers for these activities. Design/methodology/approach A model was developed that analyzes the relationship between competitive advantage and outsourcing and how the relationship between competitive advantage and activity performance is affected by whether an activity is outsourced or not. Moreover, the study builds a matrix called “outsourcing and competitive advantage” where each of the activities can be placed. The study was carried out with a representative sample of hotels in a tourist destination, analyzing 12 activities from different departments in the hotels. Findings The study results indicate that there is a positive relationship between the competitive advantage of an activity and its outcome. In addition, the findings show that the relationship between competitive advantage and activity performance is stronger when the activity is developed internally than when it is outsourced. The study supports a negative relationship between the degree of outsourcing an activity and its competitive advantage. In addition, the findings showed that a change in the way of managing the outsourcing is determined by its performance. Practical implications This study aims to help managers make decisions about outsourcing by considering the perspective of the competitive advantage. Each hotel can situate the activities in the matrix created and compare itself to the sector mean for a strategic positioning of the outsourcing. Originality/value Most studies analyze asset specificity as a key variable; however, the competitive advantage has not been used in previous studies, in spite of being a better defined variable in the literature. This study classifies the activities into core and non-core and establishes their relationship with outsourcing. It also studies how the way of managing an activity (outsourcing or in-house) moderates the relationship between competitive advantage and performance. These aspects have not been analyzed in the literature..

The study examines relational norms in outsourcing relationships. The study analyzes some factors that determine the use of relational norms, such as outsourcing benefits and the competitive strategy (cost leadership and differentiation). In addition, it analyzes the influence of the use of relational norms on the outsourcing success. Based on a sample of 127 outsourcing relationships in two tourist destinations, a partial least squares structural model was used to test the hypotheses. The findings show that the outsourcing benefits and competitive strategy determine the use of relational norms. They also show that there is a positive relationship between relational norms and outsourcing success. Some differences were found between the two destinations analyzed.

Résumé :
This study aimed to reveal the actual state of Japanese firms’ logistics outsourcing, and examine their relationship with LSPs. This study addressed the following issues by conducting a case study of six leading manufacturing firms. First, it clarified the characteristics of Japanese-style logistics outsourcing as: the outsourcing of the total activities, the consigning to a single LSP, and the development of advanced information systems. Moreover, it examined the logistics outsourcing performance from a sustainable perspective, and concluded that Japanese-style logistics management enables firms to achieve high performance in all the economic, environmental, and social dimensions. Second, this study confirms that the traditional Japanese business practice of long-term partnerships is still maintained in logistics outsourcing management. Third, this study also explored how long-term partnerships create sustainable competitive advantages. Finally, based on these findings, a theoretical framework illustrating the relationship between Japanese-style logistics outsourcing and firms’ sustainable competitive advantage is presented. Our findings may encourage companies to develop a long-term partnership with their logistics service providers, and to put environmental and social indicators into their KPI system to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage by balancing the economy, environment, and society.

Résumé :
In a high-tech backend semiconductor business where a market environment changes sharply and requires competitiveness of high technology, one of the most important criteria is to establish an optimal strategy for outsourcing development so a firm can achieve a sustainable competitive advantage. Many studies have investigated sustainable and successful strategies for the selection and management of outsourcing suppliers, whereas, this study focuses mainly on analyzing the most affecting factor for outsourcing development in the perspective of dynamic capability by using the Delphi Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. For the analysis of affecting factors, 4 dimensions are defined: technology, organization, environment, and process. The research result shows that the sustainability of the productive skill in the technology dimension is adopted as the most affecting factor for outsourcing development among the defined 4 dimensions of an outsourcing supplier’s capability. With this research, a high-tech firm can measure the level of each dimension and each factor in developing outsourcing service providers. Then the firm can develop an appropriate outsourcing provider who contributes to the firm’s sustainable competitive advantage. This study also provides a practical and strategic framework of a high-tech firm’s outsourcing development in variable market situations and changeable conditions of transaction.

Résumé :
The main objective for this secondary research is to determine whether the risk of outsourcing the IT function can be managed. Driven by political and economic dynamic changes, facilities management was borne to enable reacting to change. Doing business in today’s global economy requires exceptional skills from management in order to be competitive and to have a specific competitive advantage over competitors are getting even more demanding. One of the widest used methods of facilities management deployed by organisations is that of outsourcing in various forms (i.e. I.T., H.R., Distribution, Warehousing, etc.) for various different reasons (i.e. reduce costs, improve quality, focus on core business, etc.). In order for outsourcing to be successful, it needs to add benefits to profits, efficiency or effectiveness ethic. Outsourcing assists management to gain a competitive advantage over competitors within their specific industries as part of their organizational strategies and developing or strengthening core competencies at the same time. Global outsourcing on the other hand leads to controversy inasmuch as it reduces home-country economic activity and employment. The consulted secondary resources confirm that if outsourcing delivers managers can take calculated decisions to use it in their businesses. The future of outsourcing is promising as non-core functions of businesses may rather be outsourced to save on costs. A broad set of new and alternative IT delivery models are already main stream. These models receive attention because of benign economic market conditions.

Purpose Outsourcing of accounting increasingly attracts research interest, but research concerning the impact of the benefits of outsourcing on firm capabilities and performance across firms remains limited. This paper aims to reveal the unobservable latent classes of firms that outsource their accounting functions by testing a research model concerning the topic. Design/methodology/approach The authors build on accounting outsourcing research and adapt a research model from the literature on business services outsourcing. The authors analyze the data from 261 small and medium-sized enterprises in Europe using finite mixture structural equation modeling (FMSEM) and additional methods. Findings The authors reveal three latent classes with different research models. Thriving outsourcers (N = 103) have a positive attitude toward accounting outsourcing and associate competitive capabilities with mediating the relationship from outsourcing benefits to firm performance. Annoyed outsourcers (N = 143) are dissatisfied with their accounting service provider and only associate outsourcing benefits with competitive capabilities. Convenient outsourcers (N = 15) feel comfortable with their current accounting service provider and associate outsourcing benefits with neither capabilities nor with firm performance. Research limitations/implications The study initiates the discussion about the unobservable heterogeneity among accounting outsourcers. The study introduces the use of the FMSEM method in accounting outsourcing research. Practical implications The study offers novel insights concerning accounting outsourcers and proposes original explanations for their outsourcing decisions that would help both the outsourcers and accounting service providers. Originality/value The study might be the first to categorize accounting outsourcers using FMSEM.

Résumé :
Outsourcing to third party to manage non-core activities helps the firm to focus on core activities. Manufacturing firms are outsourcing product development, manufacturing, logistics, customer care etc. to enhance production capacity and flexibility, and to reduce operational costs, which in turn can improve profitability and competitive advantage of the enterprise. Sustainability in operations and supply chain is gaining momentum due to increased global environmental concern, pressures from consumers and communities, and enforced regulations. Volatile and uncertain business environment necessitates the adoption of agility and flexibility to effectively manage manufacturing and supply chain. Globalisation has made the market very competitive and hence manufacturing firms are adopting manufacturing outsourcing to third parties. Selecting a sustainable and agile manufacturing outsourcing partner (MPS) is crucial as it will improve sustainability, efficiency, and effectiveness of the supply chain and competitive advantage to the firm. Detailed literature review on sustainable and agile manufacturing outsourcing partner selection has been carried out from EBSCO data base and Goggle scholar. Selection criteria used are classified into agile, operational, economic, environmental and social. The techniques use are mostly multi criteria decision making methods (MCDM) while few have adopted programming techniques. Discussion, implication and the scope of future work is also provided.

This paper examines India's role in services outsourcing within Asia. It provides a brief overview of the global as well as Indian services outsourcing industry. The core section examines India's relationship with other Asian countries such as China, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Malaysia in service outsourcing. It examines the extent to which these countries pose a competitive challenge to India and concludes that at this time, India is far ahead although it is likely to face growing competition as its costs rise. The paper highlights the need to move beyond this comparative paradigm and to examine the complementary and collaborative opportunities that exist between India and other Asian countries in services outsourcing. It concludes that there is considerable scope for such synergies and that India and other Asian countries can form different parts of a larger regional or global delivery model. Regional and bilateral agreements within Asia can also facilitate this process.

Résumé :
The fundamental goal of this exploration is to break down outsourcing and company competitiveness. A large number of literature reviews have been completed to accomplish the targets of this study. Outsourcing has become unavoidable and almost many multinational companies outsource to take advantage of scarce internal resources. In this study it was observed that the proprietor of the organization is the main winner in the outsourcing and off shoring situation. Furthermore, a detailed literature review shows that along with many other motives, the cost factor causes a major influence in outsourcing. Meanwhile, competitiveness is the company's ability to compete with commodities that meet customer needs in terms of price, quality and variety. This is possible as long as the company has a competitive advantage and its affirmation comes from the company's internal conditions and in a competitive and supportive economic environment.

As a requirement of competitiveness, businesses procure those goods and services which are beyond their own fields of activity from specialized businesses. Based on this requirement, examination of the effect of outsourcing, one of the crucial instruments for businesses in gaining competitive advantage, on sustainable supply chain performance and business performance, is of importance in terms of bringing a point of view on the dimensions of the ongoing competition in sectoral sense and enabling the businesses to assess their own structures. In this context, the effect of outsourcing by businesses operating in food industry in the province of Konya on sustainable supply chain performance and business performance was examined in this study. Structural equation modeling was utilized to analyze the correlation between the variables. While no statistically significant correlation could be determined between outsourcing and sustainable supply chain perforrmance, it was found out that a statistically significant correlation existed between sustainable supply chain performance and business performance as well as between the outsourcing and business performance.

The offshore outsourcing strategy is widely criticized in thedeveloped countries for allegedly reducing job opportunities, missing scaleeconomy, diminishing innovation potentialities and creating various socialproblems. The present article with empirical data from thirteen Canadianoffshoring manufacturing SMEs attempted to address that the world-widedistributed co-production network could instead increase profit and marketshare, boost investment in R&D, raise focus on core competency and enhancecompetitivity of offshoring SMEs. This strategy enables companies to enhancetheir competitiveness by allowing them to have access to the competitiveproduction factors and new markets for their products. This paper contributesto the existing body of knowledge by showing that not only the largemultinationals but also the SMEs can achieve competitive advantages fromoffshoring part of their activities to foreign firms where those tasks can beperformed more competitively.

Résumé :
There are many theories and framework which suggest performance link to strategy and / or resources. In order to succeed in the market, the organization must transform its core strengths into competitive advantages so that it becomes harder for its rivals to snatch its customers and market share. This paper has attempted to integrate the issue of weakness emanating out of the capability frame in terms of strategic decision in outsourcing. With the help of our proposed “Integrated Decision Making Model” for strategic outsourcing,, significant advantage can be achieved by directing investments and efforts in areas where firms perform better as compared to others. Over time, a continued effort to develop core competencies by building strategic capabilities (strengths) and minimizing strategic liabilities (weaknesses), bar the present or future competitors to expand into the company's areas of interest, thus helps to defend the strategic competitive advantages lying in the firm's value chain.

Résumé :
In the face of fierce global competition, firms are outsourcing important but nonessential tasks to external professional companies. Corporations are also turning from competitive business models to cooperative strategic partnerships in hopes of swiftly responding to consumer needs and enhancing overall efficiency and industry competitiveness. This research developed an outsourcing partner selection model in hopes of helping firms select better outsourcing partners for long-term collaborations. Process quality and manufacturing time are vital when evaluating outsourcing partner. We therefore used process capability index [Formula: see text] and manufacturing time performance index [Formula: see text] in the proposed model. Sample data from random samples are needed to calculate the point estimates of indices, however, it is impossible to obtain a sample with a structure completely identical to that of the population, which means that sampling generates unavoidable sampling errors. The reliability of point estimates are also uncertain, which inevitably leads to misjudgment in some cases. Thus, to reduce estimate errors and increase assessment reliability, we calculated the [Formula: see text]% confidence intervals of the indices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], then constructed the joint confidence region of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] to develop an outsourcing partner selection model that will help firms select better outsourcing partners for long-term collaborations. We also provide a case as an illustration of how the proposed selection model is implemented.

Résumé :
New public management (NPM) paradigm plays an increasingly important role in contemporary public management practices throughout the democratic world. This article argues that the driving force behind NPM reform in China at the local level is the competitive pressure to improve administrative performance. In China, where there is no electoral democratic regime, local governments face pressure in competition with counterparts over economic performance and consequent promotion opportunities for their leadership. The introduction of NPM can make local governments more effective and efficient in providing public services, which can result in local governments attracting more investments and enhancing competitiveness. The administrative licensing reform with public service outsourcing in Heping District, Tianjin City, China, is an example of NPM reform driven by competition among local governments.

This paper aims to review research that determines the influence of outsourcing on knowledge management and learning, a process which will help identify new research opportunities and contribute to the further development of outsourcing theory. The study consists of a review of 34 refereed articles on outsourcing in relation to knowledge management and learning. The findings were summarised in a number of hypotheses and two conceptual models which highlight the contribution of outsourcing to either competitive advantage or disadvantage. This study may not have enabled a complete coverage of all peer reviewed articles in the field of outsourcing in relation to learning and knowledge management. Yet, it seems reasonable to assume that the review process covered a large share of studies available. To the best of the authors' knowledge, no literature review on this topic has previously been published in academic journals.

Résumé :
This study aimed at investigating outsourcing performance in Uganda’s commercial banks basing on the variables of contract, relational norms, trust and commitment. It was motivated by the fact that where as outsourcing has been identified as a global trend in this millennium and a competitive strategy for the contemporary business, there were limited (if any) empirical studies on outsourcing performance in Uganda. Besides, previous studies conducted outside Uganda have provided conflicting views on whether or not contract and relational norms can be used concurrently to enhance outsourcing performance. The study was also intended to contribute to this debate by establishing the extent to which the variation in outsourcing performance was explained by the model that was developed. Findings revealed that the only significant predictor of outsourcing performance was contract and the model accounted for 40.1% of the variation in outsourcing performance. The findings present implications for commercial bank management in the area of contracting and contract management, which have to be addressed if outsourcing performance is to be enhanced and competitiveness in the banking sector improved.

Résumé :
Should firms perform logistics services on their own or should they buy them from a logistics provider? Today’s global competition forces companies to re-evaluate their existing processes, technologies and services in order to focuse on strategic activities. Outsourcing is now increasingly used as a competitive weapon in today’s economy. External parties can often do job quicker, cheaper and better. This has resulted in an increasing awareness of the importance of the make-or-buy decision, the dilemma organisations face when deciding between keeping logistics services in house or purchasing them from an outside logistics provider. This article provides a make-or-buy decision process methodology that any manager can implement – whatever the size or industrial type of the organization. The make-or-buy methodology is one of the most critical strategic decisions within logistics outsourcing and should be taken in a structured and consistent manner. A practical guide to this decision is a step-by-step guide to addressing make-or-buy decision in a consistent and structured manner. The high-level steps are as follows: • evaluate whether outsourcing is right for your company; • determine exactly what functions to outsource and the performance expectations; • use a well-defined professional selection process to evaluate and select which provider(s) are right for the job. KEY WORDS: logistics, logistics outsourcing, make-or-buy decision, outsourcing methodology

The authors review recent studies on outsourcing and conduct a nationwide survey. The results of the survey reveal that 60 percent of the respondents are focusing on their supply chain for cost reduction and/or competitive advantages and less than half of the respondents plan to outsource supply chain processes and information systems within the next 5 years. Results also show that major reasons for outsourcing include a lack of ability to handle in house and return on assets, while the largest barrier to outsourcing is cost followed by control concern.

The paper presents the findings from empirical research on IT outsourcing in two British companies: ICI Plc and Wessex Water. Both organizations have pursued a selective sourcing approach using multiple suppliers in an attempt to minimize risks and maximize benefits. Whilst the majority of existing literature on selective sourcing concentrates on the ‘mega-contracts’, this research explores some of the issues and concerns of companies with small to medium sized outsourcing contracts. The findings suggest that selective and competitive sourcing may offer the client company value-added benefits, although it is important to develop strengths in the areas of contract management and negotiation and competitive benchmarking and performance management.

Résumé :
Recently, increased attention has been paid to partnership quality in outsourcing strategy. However, research of partnership quality on the outsourcing of human resources (HR) is very limited. Therefore, this research aims at examining the relationship between partnership quality variables (business understanding, trust, commitment, communication and top management) and the success of HR outsourcing. The sample is obtained from a cross sectional survey and the sample studied are 96 manufacturing organizations in Penang, Malaysia. Results indicate that most of the organizations that outsourced HR functions were from electronic and electrical industry. The analyses also show that partnership quality variables such as trust, business understanding and communication have significant positive impact on HR outsourcing success. The study concluded that HR outsourcing as a competitive strategy in Malaysia is still relatively new and probably many of its potential benefits are not fully understood. Therefore, by understanding the relationship with the service providers, the organizations are able to achieve outsourcing success by identifying areas of expected benefits and improvements.

Résumé :
The safety of a company's secrets and proprietary competitive practices becomes an important concern when the company is involved in outsourcing. This concern becomes even more critical when the company is engaged in analytics outsourcing where the company shares proprietary data about the internal processes. While there is a growing concern about the larger costs and risks of the wholesale outsourcing of analytics functions in the business press, there are no statistics on the risks or a sense of how big they might be. This paper attempts to fill this gap by building a mathematical model of the vendor-client interaction that will allow some baseline quantification of the risks that are inherent in analytics outsourcing. The paper also discusses the implications of these ideas for companies that work with outsourcing vendors and closes with some ideas for further research.

Résumé :
This study explores the multiproduct manufacturer-retailer coordination replenishing decision featuring outsourcing strategy and product quality assurance. Globalization has generated enormous opportunities. Consequently, transnational firms now face tough competition in global markets. To stay competitive, a firm should meet the client’s multi-item and quality requirements under capacity constraints and optimize the intra-supply chain system to allow the timely distribution of finished goods under minimum system cost. The outsourcing option is considered to release machine loadings and reduce cycle time effectively. All items fabricated are screened for quality, and reworkable and scrap items are separated. Any reworked items that fail the quality reassurance screening are discarded, whereas all outsourced products are quality-guaranteed by the provider. A fixed-quantity multi-shipment plan is used when the whole finished lot is quality-ensured to help present-day transnational firms gain competitive advantage by making efficient and cost-effective multiproduct manufacturing and delivering decisions. Mathematical modeling is built to portray the system’s characteristics, and conventional differential calculus is used to solve and derive the optimal operating policy for the proposed problem. Simultaneously, we find the optimal delivery frequency and common cycle time for the problem mentioned above. A simulated numerical example and sensitivity analysis demonstrate the research result’s capability and applicability. Our precise analytical model can reveal/highlight the impact of deviations in quality- and outsourcing-related features on the optimal operating policy and several performance indicators that help managerial decision-making.

Résumé :
Increasing global competition has forced many manufacturing enterprises (outsourcers) to focus on their core competences and outsource low value-added parts machining activities to suppliers to increase product quality and productivity as well as cut cost. While outsourcers or suppliers coordinate their decisions with partners for parts machining outsourcing, the present problem is how to timely achieve the most beneficial portfolio with the goal of gaining mutual benefit in a game structure. Based on the investigation conducted in Weinan National High-New Technology Zone of China, this article identifies several typical outsourcer–supplier Stackelberg game models for the order coordination of parts machining outsourcing and investigates one scenario of them in detail. Then, to solve the established bi-level programming model corresponding to the Stackelberg game, a solution procedure based on modified imperialist competitive algorithm is proposed. Finally, a case from a printing machinery enterprise is analyzed to validate the proposed model. This research is expected to improve the quality and effectiveness of coordination decision-making in parts machining outsourcing.

Outsourcing, the strategy in which organizations employ the services of external providers, has attracted growing interest. Academic and industrial attention has also focused on the role of seamless supply chain processes in achieving and sustaining competitive advantage. This research is based on petrol retailers in the UK that have adopted logistics outsourcing strategies for implementing supply chain solutions to their convenience‐goods operations. Its aim is to identify the factors, which influence outsourcing decisions and the nature and supply chain implications of outsourcing strategies. Research findings indicate that the capability of service providers to facilitate supply chain solutions is largely influenced by four main factors, which in turn substantially determine their role in the supply chain: the strategic orientation of the outsourcing organization; its perception of service providers' role within the logistics strategy; the nature of the resultant client‐provider relationship; and, the extent to which the logistics process is outsourced.

This is possible with the use of outsourcing, which, unlike subcontracting, is aimed at providing profitability by concentrating on the performance of priority activities for which the construction company has the highest level of competence. Also, outsourcing involves taking risks and responsibilities of an outsourcing company for the quality of running business processes.

The study examines the impact of outsourcing on organizational performance of listed food and beverage firms in Nigeria. In spite of the rapid drift in outsourcing, there are limited published sources of literature related to outsourcing in Nigeria, and also previous studies shows contradictory results. The study uses a correlation design, and used secondary data as the main instrument of data collected from the financial statements of the firms contained in the fact-book of the Nigeria Stock Exchange (NSE). The population and sample of the study includes all the eighteen (18) food and beverages firms listed on the floor of the Nigeria stock exchange between2007-2016. Ordinary Lease square (OLS) regression analysis using statistical package for social science (SPSS) was employed to analyze the data and test the hypotheses. The findings reveal that both business process outsourcing and knowledge process outsourcing have a positive and significant impact on organizational performance of listed food and beverage firms in Nigeria. The study concludes that business process outsourcing and knowledge process outsourcing have significantly impacted on the organizational performance which is profitability and competitive advantage of the listed food and beverages firms in Nigeria. The study recommends that the management of these firms should engage in outsourcing strategy in decision making by outsourcing its business processes and knowledge processes in order to increase their profit and achieve performance.

Résumé :
This article aims to answer how the decision process model used to adjudicate on the implementation of outsourcing in the company affected the competitive advantage in costs obtained by the organization after the implementation of subcontracting. Therefore, the financial results obtained by the company in the period from 2015 to 2019 were analysed in order to know if there were competitive advantages in costs arising from the decision to implement outsourcing. Studies were also carried out on the structure of the decision-making process adopted by the entity to identify the level of efficiency of this model in the implementation of outsourcing, and finally, the impacts generated on these advantages due to the degree of efficiency of the tool application were verified. The research strategy was qualitative and quantitative, with an exploratory bias, bibliographic survey and structured interview. A mathematical model was used based on 14 (fourteen) decision-making efficiency indicators, 4 (four) efficiency level classification indicators and 5 (five) classification criteria for performance. The results showed that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the low level of efficiency in the decision-making structure contributed to the high financial impact on Company Alpha and, consequently, to the negative impact on competitiveness acquired through the implementation of outsourcing in this entity, which caused financial disadvantages represented by losses in operating income and reduction in profitability.
