Quantifying the retained organization

18 August 2009:

Stepping up in HR transformation, and more specifically HR outsourcing, raises fundamental questions and implies to agree on the processes and activities to keep in-house and the ones to reengineer and outsource. More generally, HR transformation is mainly about deciding on the organization to implement to fit the new
business needs.

Designing and managing your retained team correctly is a critical factor for the success of your overall HR outsourcing business plan. In particular,
the ability to achieve significant staffing efficiencies is typically the key to achieving the financial objectives expected from the outsourcing relationship. This is often the most difficult and poorly planned aspect of the transition to outsourcing HR.
