Outsourcing Advice & Consultancy.

Are you looking to re-evaluate your current outsourcing arrangements, or consider outsourcing a function for the first time? Our outsourcing advisory services and consultancy can support your organisation. We can create a clear and auditable set of strategic and tactical objectives which are aligned to your overarching organisational objectives.

Why choose to outsource?

A lot of organisations choose to outsource specific functions such as IT operations, customer support, finance or HR services, etc.  And we understand why; by choosing to outsource you can refocus on your core activities and open up space and financial resources to improve the quality of your service offering. You can save costs or concentrate your efforts on growth, innovation or new market initiatives.

Outsourcing can, however, be a minefield without a structured and well-defined strategy – especially when the time comes to re-evaluate your current arrangements, retender, benchmark or when conducting a make/buy review.

Outsourcing is an effective tool for reducing expenditure, improving efficiencies and achieving your strategic objectives. When relationships with outsourcing suppliers are correctly managed, outsourcing can provide a number of long-term benefits. When they are not, they can lead to scope creep and high value overcharging.

Outsourcing support.


We know that senior stakeholders often have different views on outsourcing to that of functional unit heads. This is why seeking external outsourcing advisory services from eXceeding is a great way of getting an objective assessment of your situation, existing process and organisational needs.

There are many different reasons why you may be looking at assessing your arrangements and seeking outsource consultancy services:

  1. You don’t know how to evaluate the effectiveness of your existing outsourcing contracts, or whether you are getting the most for your money.
  2. Your organisation has evolved since the contract was put in place and services are no longer sufficient.
  3. You are not sure how to approach the supplier to open discussions around changes to existing contractual agreements.
  4. Your existing outsourcing services contract is coming to an end and you want to re-tender but don’t have the capacity or knowledge.
  5. You want to run a make/buy analysis to understand the costs and benefits of outsourcing services or moving them back in-house.

Is outsourcing the right solution?

Outsourcing may not be the right solution for every organisation. There are alternative solutions such as forming a strategic alliance, resourcing, insourcing or out-tasking which may be more appropriate for your circumstances. So how do you decide which is right for you?

Our specialist outsource consulting services professionals at eXceeding can help you to take a step back and assess the best outcomes for your organisation. We will manage the effectiveness of your existing outsourced solutions, re-engage existing suppliers or tender for new providers as appropriate.

Getting the strategy right is essential and we will work with you to determine the overall outcome and ultimate success. We help you focus on the questions that matter to achieve this.
