Businesses require data entry services of various types which may include survey data
entry, forms processing, and so on. Many organizations prefer the outsourcing model
because it allows them to focus on their business mission, conserve capital and focus on
core activities. However, sometimes companies experience negative outcomes when
outsourcing as a result of which they hesitate to outsource their requirements.
Here are four main reasons why many companies fail when outsourcing data entry and
document conversion to a third party vendor.
 Outsourcing to a provider that is incapable of handling large volume
tasks
Hiring and assigning all the tasks to a provider that is incapable of handling such
large volume requirements is not a good idea. Make sure that your vendor has
the necessary equipment, manpower and professionalism to take up and
complete the jobs.
 Lack of control
Your contract with the vendor should allow you a reasonable amount of control
over the outsourcing norms. Only then will you be able to get the tasks
completed within the required turnaround time. It is important that the vendor
understands and follows all relevant policies and practices agreed upon. Another
important factor is the location of your vendor. This is because different locations
may have different work environments and working hours. In order to gain
optimum results co- ordinate with your vendor and build a rapport with them.
 Outsourcing to a very remote location
Communicating with your vendor about your needs and the different tasks that
they have to fulfil is very essential. This is a major issue when you are
outsourcing your documents to a different country. There may be issues such as
political unrest, power outages and time zone gaps. The best option is to
outsource to a neighbouring country that has similar laws if you need to exercise
certain clauses in your contracts.
 Outsourcing the wrong data
Outsourcing is important for any business organization but there should be a
clear idea about what needs to outsourced and what items should not be
outsourced. So staying in control and monitoring the work is necessary to ensure
efficiency.
