Prerequisites: Graduate students:  IS 5800

Course Description:

 

Largely fostered by the globalization, the Internet, processing standards, and common software packages, organizations now regularly source business and information technology (IT) services globally. This course covers topics to help managers source business and IT services from the initiation of a sourcing decision and evaluation process through to service provider selection and transition to outsourcing.  The course also covers the client and provider capabilities and contractual and relational governance that are needed to ensure good outsourcing outcomes for both parties.  The course focuses on global sourcing of IT, financial and accounting services, human resource services, procurement, real estate services, legal services, and other back office services.  Students will also investigate insourcing options such as shared services and captive centers and other emerging sourcing topics such as impact sourcing, crowd sourcing, and rural sourcing.

This course is cross-listed in the Outsourcing Professional Course Catalog (OPCC)

 

This course is worth 25 of the 150 points required to become a Certified Outsourcing Professional (COP).

 

The International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP) offers a number of certifications, including the COP-Certified Outsourcing Professional.  To become a Certified Outsourcing Professional (COP), an individual must be able to demonstrate both the experience and knowledge needed to design, implement, and manage outsourcing initiatives with a high probability of achieving the organization's intended outcomes. The experience and knowledge areas addressed by the certification cover the non-domain specific activities common to outsourcing as a management practice irrespective of the individual's role as a customer, provider, or advisor. In so doing, the certification creates an experience and knowledge set common to and shared by all professionals in the field. 

 

What is the process for becoming a COP? Applicants will be asked to successfully demonstrate that they possess the necessary knowledge and experience to be considered a COP. This knowledge and experience can be demonstrated through a combination of the following:

 

Comprehensive Work Experience in the field of outsourcing as demonstrated by employment on one or more projects across one or more firms.

 

Knowledge Assessment through passing the multiple choice COP Examination developed by the Standards Committee. The exam is taken online and consists of 200 multiple choice questions, of which 70% of the questions must be answered correctly to pass.

 

Education including successful completion of the COP Master Class and/or holding a relevant post-graduate degree.

Ideal Student Profile:

 

Students have different learning styles.  This course is most suited for:

§  students who enjoy self-directed learning

§  students who are mature (accountable and responsible for their own work)

§  students who welcome the challenge of reading advanced scholarship

§  students who follow written instructions well

§  students who do not mind listening to prerecorded lectures

§  students who are organized

§  students who have the self-discipline and time to spend on this course.

§  students who enjoy working in groups  

 

Professor is be able to monitor a student’s daily progress, as professor can see exactly when a student accessed module materials and how much time was spent spent on certain tasks (such as listening to lectures).   Of course some students may choose to work heavily on the weekends and lightly during the work week.  Each student needs to make good progress each week; each student should be fully prepared for exams.

 

Exams:

Students will take three exams, but the lowest exam score will be dropped.  If students are satisfied with their first two exam scores, they do not have to take the third exam. Because students may drop an exam, the final average is calculated using the following formula:

 

 (Best Exam Score *.20) + (Second Best Exam Score *.20) + (Group Oral Presentation Grade *.34) + (Class participation)

                                                                                                      .80

 

The exams will cover material from the assigned readings and professor’s lectures.  Exams are NOT cumulative.

 

The exams comprise multiple choice questions and will be delivered online.  Please note, ONCE YOU OPEN THE MULTIPLE CHOICE EXAM YOU ONLY HAVE 3 HOURS TO COMPLETE IT!

 

Do not open the test until after you have read the required materials and you have studied.  You may use your notes, readings, power point slides to answer questions.  You may not speak with other students about the exam.

 

There are 50 multiple choice questions on each exam.

 

No late exams will be accepted, thus plan ahead!  If the system crashed while you are taking an exam, contact the professor immediately by email.  

 

In this class, the letter grades use the following scale:

 

92.00 or above

A

90.00 to 91.99

A-

88.00 to 89.99

B+

Class Participation:

 

The class only meets face-to-face six times so it is vital that students attend all six classes.  Students should not miss any classes.  Students must attend all  group presentations on both allotted days in December or students will be required to write essays on missed presentations in order to complete the class.

 

Oral Group Presentation:

 

The class will be divided into eight groups. Each group is responsible for presenting a 50 minute presentation to the class. Each group will be assigned a different ITO/BPO topic:

 

Group 1: BPO: Outsourcing Human Resources OR Financial & Accounting Services

Group 2: BPO: Group Choice (Procurement Outsourcing, Real Estate, Innovation, Claims Administration; Policy Administration; Legal Services—anything except HR or FAO)

Group 3: ITO and BPO in Central/South America

Group 4: ITO and BPO in Europe

Group 4: ITO and BPO in Europe/Africa

Group 6: Insourcing Options:  Shared Services or Captive Centers

Group 7: Emerging ITO/BPO Trend: Crowdsourcing!

Group 8: Political View: Is Outsourcing Good or Bad for the US Economy?

 

 

RESEARCH BASE:

 

Secondary Resources. Each group should research at least 20 external references such as journal articles, newspapers, short videos, or relevant websites.  Some excellent sources that cover the ITO and BPO markets are:

 

 

Outsourcing Research & Professional Sites:

High Performance BPO website:            http://www.accenture.com/Microsites/highperfbpo/Pages/home.aspx

AOP homepage:                                   http://www.iaop.org/

IAOP Midwest Chapter:                                  http://www.outsourcingprofessional.org/content/23/162/1947/

Everest Research Institute                      http://www.everestresearchinstitute.com/

Technology Partners International:          http://www.tpi.net/

LSE Outsourcing Unit:                           www.outsourcingunit.org

Horses for Sources:                              http://www.horsesforsources.com/

 

 

Journals devoted to outsourcing:

Academic Journal:                                 Strategic Outsourcing: An International Journal

Globalization Today:                              http://www.globalizationtoday.com/

HRO Today Journal:                              http://www.hrotoday.com/

FAO Today Journal:                              http://www.faotoday.com/

Outsource Magazine                              http://www.outsourcemagazine.co.uk/

 

 

At least 10 of these references must be from refereed journals or academic journals for practitioners, such as Sloan Management Review, Harvard Business Review, Academy of Management Perspectives. Refereed journals assure some level of validation.  The academic articles don’t have to be limited to just your narrow topic (such as Egypt), but can include academic articles on outsourcing in general, surveys of outsourcing, theories or outsourcing, literature reviews on outsourcing, etc.

 

The best source to find refereed journal articles is ABI-INFORM, available online to UMSL students.  To find refereed articles, simply tick the box for “Scholarly journals, including peer-reviewed ” while in ABI inform. Professor will show you how to conduct a search if you need help.

 

Many students liven up their presentations by including short video clips about their topic (such as a youtube video). 

 

Primary Resources. Students should conduct at least two original interviews for their group projects.

 

Another potential source of primary data is an original survey.  For example, a past group surveyed 35 lawyers to see if they would outsource any legal work.   Another group surveyed graduate students to assess their level of participation in Crowdsourcing.

PRESENTATION TIMING:

Each group should only plan 40 minutes of content to allow 10 minutes of audience interaction during the presentation. Think of yourselves not as formal speakers, but as teachers. You should incorporate the audience during the entire presentation.  In the past, students have done very creative things for audience participation including a short Jeopardy game, a bingo game, a short survey, a guess the provider logo game, etc.

 

PRESENTATION MATERIALS:

 

Each group will develop power point slides.

 

On the day of your presentation, please provide a STAPLED, hardcopy set the slides for your instructor. Please print only 2 slides per page.

 

Please load your final power point slides in GROUP X Group Pages under FILE EXCHANGE. 

 

Please name the final version of your power point slides exactly as indicated below:

DO NOT PLAGERIZE!!!!

You may not copy directly from sources unless you indent the text and put it in quotes.  This would normally be reserved for a few sentences of specific quotations. 

You must RE-WORD sources!  You are using external references as INPUT to your originally created OUTPUT.

Professor takes plagiarism very seriously and any student who copies directly from the web or printed sources will be turned over to Academic Affairs.

I am very happy to work with groups on their specific topic. I strongly suggest that I meet with your groups several times.  At a MINIMUM, I want to review your power point slides at least a week before your presentation. Please feel free to email me to make an appointment in person, or we can do it over the phone or online as well.

 

Advice for Oral Group Presentation:

My aim is to have the best possible group presentations.   Based on vast experience with group assignments, keys to success include:

 

·         As soon as groups are assigned, sit next to each other in class to foster communication and relationship building.

·         Exchange contact information.

·         Start your group project as soon as groups are assigned.

·         Start exploring your topic by gathering general statistics about your topic and start answering the questions: Why is your topic important to general managers? How much money do companies spend on your topic? What are the promised benefits of this topic if properly managed?  What are the potential pitfalls if mis-managed?

·         Identify early the original sources of data you want to collect (interviews, case study material, original surveys)

·         Read entire syllabus regarding the group project

·         Be sure to get the best, most current, most relevant sources of content available

·         Frequently meet with the professor before or after class or via email

·         Frequently meet with each other

·         Treat each group member with respect.  You will likely be in groups with individuals from different countries and cultures.  View the diversity as an opportunity to learn about how to work with people from different cultures. Appreciate that individuals have worthwhile and unique viewpoints and talents that will enrich the group’s performance.

·         Please do not complain to the professor about group members behind their backs. Your complaints reflect more on you than on the individual you are complaining about.  If a problem arises, find a way to discuss the problem directly with the individual.  If a serious problem arises that you have not been able to successfully address with the individual, then make an appointment with me and the entire group with the sole purpose of finding a successful route forward.

·         Have content completed one week prior to presentation.

·         DO NOT HAVE MORE THAN 50 POWER POINT SLIDES (excluding references).

·         Meet with the professor one week prior to review power point slides.

·         Meet with group to practice oral presentation (this is the only way to get the timing correct!)

·         When speaking in the front of the class, do not use notes.  Your power point slides serve as your notes.

·         When speaking in front of the class, speak LOUDLY enough for the back row to hear you clearly.

·         When speaking in the front of the class, do not stand behind the instructor’s computer station.  Stand in front of the class.

·         When speaking in front of the class, all group members should be standing in the speaking space, with one person advancing the slides.

·         The best presentations pass control many times among group members.  You should not organize the speaking as four 10-minute, independent speeches.  The presentation should be integrated so that every person speaks several times.

·         To form a cohesive group, do not think that an individual “owns” a certain part of a presentation.  It is quite natural for one member to gather data and another member may actually present the data. 

·         The audience gets tired and cannot absorb too much information at one time.   Groups are more effective when they deliver less information in a relaxed, effective manner rather than trying to rush through too much information. Usually, as the group presentation approaches, groups realize they have too much information!  The group should keep the best content.  No individual should feel bad if the information they collected is not all used.  Again, each member needs to abandon the idea that they “own” content.  The content is group owned.

·         During practice sessions, help group mates with their oral communication skills.  It does not matter if English is not your native language!  Hundreds of international students have performed well on their oral presentations. What matters is that students can be heard (good volume), that students do not read from notes, that students connect with the audience by asking good questions, that students stand in front of the audience (not behind the instructor station), that students are enthusiastic, that students have prepared excellent content, and that students have practiced out loud with their groups.

·         Remember to have about 10 minutes of audience interaction. Do not rely on “Does anyone have any questions?” to fill up your ten minutes of class participation.   In the past, students have done very creative things for audience participation including “Name that Entrepreneur”, a short Jeopardy game, a short survey, etc.

·         BE SURE TO SEE HOW I GRADE THE ORAL PRESENTATIONS

Oral Group Presentation Grades:

Oral presentations are graded as a group grade rather than as individual grades. 

 

GROUPS Call Centers; Captive or Shared Services; Crowdsourcing; Public Opinion: Oral group presentations will be graded using the following form: oral group grade form

 

GROUPS South America and Africa: Oral group presentations will be graded using the following form: oral group grade form  

 

 

Individuals in a group never contribute the exact equal amounts of time, content, and value. This often leads to some people feeling they worked more than others, and some people feeling left out. Usually a leader emerges, one who will hopefully help find the gifts of each individual. Unfortunately, I cannot effectively intervene in these matters, and rely on you as adults to ensure that all members of your group meaningfully contribute to the data gathering, interviewing, analysis, slide design, and presenting the final project.

All group members will receive the same grade for the oral presentation, provided that all members agree that each individual made a significant contribution. If a group member has not meaningfully or fully participated, I will assume that group member was legitimately distracted by other life issues such as illness or heavy work travel. I do expect that members who do not fully participate show their integrity by willingly reducing their percentage of contribution. It is no shame to not fully participate because of legitimate reasons.  It is a great shame to expect other group members to falsely report contribution percentages.

In order to provide some accountability, albeit imperfect, I will ask that each group fill in the following form and each group member must sign it. This form is due on the day of presentation.

Please print, fill in, and have every member sign a copy of: group contribution form .
