Many organizations that jumped on the outsourcing bandwagon have learned their lessons and are now becoming advocates for in-sourcing versus outsourcing they championed several years ago. Many organizations who relied on outsourcing to India are now rethinking their focus as the profit margin continues to decrease yearly due to the increasing standard of living in India. Companies are now considering either outsourcing to Eastern Europe or bringing their development back to United States.
While it may be practical at times to plan for the future in acquiring or building an MSS, to fully take advantage of the system one must carefully study the solution selected today and how it can impact the organization's future growth. In addition to learning about management support systems, you will also be able to imagine the future of the MSS.
