An example might be an out of country mail distribution center to serve as an advance marketing effort for introduction of a product into the Russian market. There are times when a company will throw up its hands and remove the distraction or the drain from its resources by outsourcing the area. Transportation services are notoriously difficult to make profitable, and occupations which involve relatively low pay, little training and no benefits can be awfully frustrating for any employer. In other words, you shouldn't be outsourcing, just to outsource. You should be trying to manage or resolve some operational issue by it.
Government can never contract away blame or responsibility.
This, I question, but provide it to be fair in the representation of Mr. Fryklund's ideas. The doctrine of governmental and charitable immunity, as well as contractually negotiated waivers of liability in American law do make it possible to do just that under very specific circumstances. Alternatives should always be considered when wrestling with business dilemmas or difficult operating issues. Outsourcing is one such alternative. When considering it, however, bear in mind that contracts must be actively administered to be effective, and the loss of a certain amount of control in their service by using a contractor should be expected.
