Contracting, Outsourcing, and Project Management (2 days)
The concept behind contracting and outsourcing as project activities is really: Figure out what you do well,
and have others do the rest. This can relate to work on projects as well as establishing who you will outsource work to after
the project is handed off to an operational environment.
As companies have become more "lean and mean", interest in contracting and outsourcing has grown
rapidly over the past several years. Unfortunately, many companies do not handle contracting and outsourcing in an efficient
or effective manner.

handing off critical elements of work to other parties.
