As more and more companies seek to streamline their operation and concentrate on their core business, sourcing work from outside the company has become an increasing necessity.

From interviews with managers at the chalkface, Johnson seeks to go beyond the consultants' jargon to present a clear analysis of the benefits and pitfalls of outsourcing.
