Outsourcing?
The outsourcing is a phenomenon of the new business era, causing an unexplainable situation where we have large business scopes and a huge revenue of European companies, but the small number of employees engaged in the same. Another situation, as a result of this phenomenon, is the wide usage of the outsourced solutions are drop-offs in peripheral operational costs, labor costs, and equipment costs, which offer greater budget flexibility and control, but, on the other hand, there is a significant increase in money spent on the technology. The reason for the high investments in high-tech solutions is not because of the tendency to keep up with the technology trends, but because it becomes the core need for enabling the communication with the outsourced company’s divisions.
The phenomenon allows organizations to pay for the services and business functions they need -when they need them. No up-front investments on the customer’s part, because of the equipment purchased by the outsourced service provider, including training and education.
The outsourcing is a one-directional process, popular in the West, where Western companies outsource to eastern ones, mostly the to the South Asian organizations. From the cultural standpoint, Eastern cultures are closed up to the Western ones, what effects the globalization process, but, still, causes the economic polarization.
The polarization is threatening factor for the eastern parties, but the governments are pushing new policies in order to keep markets open, to facilitate the trade liberalization and improve employee protection. Nowadays, outsourcing process is recognized as a positive trend, but some companies are still awake and express some withdrawnness regarding outsourcing potential. The technology solutions, as the guarantee for success, will fulfill this gap.

From that reason, a huge amount of money is spent on ICT infrastructure including internet connectivity, human resources, content development and system enhancement. The efforts implemented can be seen in the reforms and stand-up plans in the education system, too. For example, there are efforts recorded in order to narrow down the digital divide, in the integration process of ICT in all aspects of education, Infrastructure Development and many other.
