Further, one cannot help feeling that Glovia’s knowledge of its target market has always been deeper than its market visibility and share.

by A.B. Maynard
Nov 2, 2004
Abstract : Many companies base their outsourcing provider selection on only one aspect of the outsourcing relationship. Some decide on a perception of cultural fit and on the rapport and relationship developed during the sales cycle between the company's senior management and the outsource provider's sales representative and executive team.

With many different aspects to consider, how can a company ensure they have made the right choice in selecting an outsourcing provider? 1. Defining the Problem 2. Where to Begin 3.
