Evaluation of ERP Outsourcing
Computers & Operations Research

 

Outsourcing has evolved as a viable means to attain cost savings in organizational information technology. This option, however, involves significant risks. This paper discusses why formal cost evaluation models are difficult to apply in this decision, and demonstrates how multi-criteria methods can be used to support this critical decision.
