Abstract

Outsourcing can mean an all-important strategic decision for a company and also for the company which accepts orders from an outsourcing partner. The research results in Slovenia have confirmed that outsourcing has become standard practice in the majority of Slovenian enterprises. Companies most often decide to outsource less important activities at the company level. In the majority of Slovenian companies analysed the management focuses merely on short-term benefits of outsourcing without considering the advantages a long-term relationship. It is important for a company to make an in-depth research of its decisions regarding outsourcing and to analyse possible implementation and outcomes, risks and benefits, posed by outsourcing.
