About the Book

Effective ASP decision-making has never been more crucial, as companies increasingly prepare to explore outsourcing mission critical operations into a rapidly-changing ASP marketplace. Now, the world's leading ASP research team shares its up-to-the-minute, provocative findings -- offering practical advice for every aspect of the outsourcing decision, and every phase of the outsourcing project lifecycle. You'll learn which ASP applications have proven most and least successful; who the leading market players are and how their services have evolved; how to manage technology infrastructure in an outsourced environment; and much more. This book includes detailed guidance on defining an ASP strategy and mitigating its attendant risks; evaluating and selecting ASPs; and managing ASP partnerships. It also previews new trends that will shape the future of ASPs -- and your relationships with them.
