HR needs to brainstorm and seek answers to their own
questions to define the FIVE C's. Do they know your indus
try? Have they ever dealt with similar clients like yours?
Do theyhave relevant experience and exposure to suit the
nature of your process? Are they competent and have the
desired expertise on the process, and are they prepared
to work with you to achieve your success criteria? What is
long term vision of partner you arechoosing? Is it aligning
with your long term strategy?
Ask for work samples I prototypes and references for
better understanding of partner's scope of work, quality
of service and time bound deliverables. Once the list of
potential & relevant outsourcing partners is drafted, re
quest them for the proposal presentation. Evaluate each
proposal to filter out the best one who meets your busi

HR must trigger the bells and whistles to ensure clarity,
transparency and compliance.
Negotiation is a default attribute of business, but nego
tiating over the cost of activities and overlook the ultimate
objective will result in drastic fall out. HR must be vigilant
and ensure keeping track with the big picture while ne
gotiating. A well negotiated contact is the package of key
elements that address service-level agreements, penalties
and rewards, time frames and measurements, regular re
views and exit strategies.
HR must partner with all stakeholders in selecting an
outsourcing partner. Align meetings& structured reviews
at regular intervals with your outsourcing partner to stay
informed and discuss theday-to-dayproblems they've en
countered. This will help prevent potential problems and
improve how your business operates.
