Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina (BCBSNC) needed to reduce costs in IT but at the same time increase responsiveness to the business units of this Health Care services company. In February 2012, their IT infrastructure operations and data center was outsourced to Fujitsu North America, but then BCBSNC needed to figure out how to manage the huge anticipated transformation to ITIL v3 and improved services, the contract, and the demand for services. This was their first major outsourcing engagement and it brought tremendous changes to the organization, both in the IT area and also in the company at large. At the 2013 IAOP Outsourcing World Summit, the speakers discussed this project, as well as the inception of the Enterprise sourcing office which was created at the same time. The development of the governance program, creation of the governance team, selection and prioritization of processes for deployment, organizational change and transformation approach, process development, and rollout of processes to ensure compliance were covered.

Traffic accidents impose large costs, with 1,291 road deaths in Australia in 2011. The total costs of road accidents were estimated to be $17 billion in 2003, equivalent to 2.3 per cent of that year’s GDP, averaging around 8.4 cents per vehicle kilometre. The Productivity Commission has recommended replacing tort law with a compulsory, government run first party insurance scheme, where all victims receive compensation from the state, regardless of fault. The proposal is being implemented across Australia, NSW has adopted it this year. Contrary to the PC’s assertions, the evidence is that no fault insurance would increase traffic fatalities by 10-30 per cent,
and accidents by even more. This has implications for the safety design of road infrastructure.An inter-disciplinary approach is taken, in this paper, combining, law, economics and transportation engineering to examine the
interaction of legal rules, insurance arrangements, economic incentives and physical infrastructure.

The Potential of MISTER Personal Rapid Transit to Sustain the Mobility and Development of Modern Communities
1. Introduction: the role of transport in Schumpeterian innovation waves
2. Key challenges faced for public transport investments:
–– CapEx, OpEx and the subsidy requirements of most public transit systems
–– Providing a level of service sufficient to persuade motorists from their cars and making transit itself an attractive choice
–– Mass personalisation in consumer markets
–– The issue of pedestrian, vehicular and junction conflicts
–– Engineering problems with retro-fitting good solutions into existing urban environments
3. Outlining Personal Rapid Transit (PRT), comparing some of the systems in the market place, to show how Second Generation PRT could likely address the above issues and ISNGI’s stated Grand Research Challenge, likely including:
–– Summary results from transport modelling-based analysis
–– Explanation of some features specific to MISTER PRT
This ISG white paper assesses recent trends in the mid-tier sourcing marketplace, and basic considerations faced by buyer organizations with
differing levels of outsourcing experience. Risks and opportunities are discussed, and potential sourcing strategy options and key success factors
are outlined.
The global outsourcing industry is constantly evolving through new contracting award characteristics and an expanding universe of successful service providers. ISG's TPI Index helps industry participants, enterprises and organizations keep pace and capitalize from the latest data on outsourcing trends. It is the authoritative source for marketplace intelligence related to outsourcing: transaction structures and terms, industry adoption, geographic prevalence and service provider metrics.
A presentation conducted by Mr Paul Oppenheim, Managing Director, The Plenary Group. Presented on Monday the 30th of September 2013.
