Despite the angst surrounding outsourcing, it appears U.S. executives are well-satisfied with turning over nonessential business functions to outside providers. A survey by Capgemini reveals that nearly 73 percent of U.S. companies plan to step up outsourcing activities in coming years, with about 23 percent stating a preference to outsource "a broad range of functions and processes" that do not reflect core business activities. The survey of 288 executives found that most lauded outsourcing as a way to zero in on core business issues (57 percent), improve process speeds (56 percent) and provide immediate cost savings (56 percent).
