PROCEDURE FOR OUTSOURCING
• The client organization and the supplier enter into a binding agreement that defines the transferred services and terms.
• Under the agreement the supplier acquires the means of production in the form of a transfer of people, assets and other resources from the client.
• The client agrees to procure the services from the supplier for the term of the contract.

SO WHAT DID THIS INITIATIVE BRING FOR THEM?
• It reduced has their costs considerably and they were able to acquire more customers and were able to pass on these savings to the customers instead of the shareholders and this increased their customer base even more and they again followed this pattern.
• Airtel was also able to differentiate themselves easily from the rest in the market who were and have been in the RED for a long period of time.

• Being in a position where they reduced their costs considerably, they had the opportunity to control the market and introduce various initiatives without being majorly affected in terms of revenues / profits.
• It has outsourced its IT to IBM for 10 years and is looking for prospective vendors to outsource its network operations.

EXAMPLE OF SPECIALIZATION
• Specialization – the idea of countries only making those products that they produce the most efficiently
• Absolute Advantage – a country’s ability to produce more of a given product than can another country
• Comparative Advantage – a country’s ability to produce a given product relatively more efficiently than another country or production at a lower opportunity cost

ENRICHMENT ACTIVITY REVIEW
• Country A has the absolute advantage in producing DVD players because it can produce one in less time.
• Country A also has the absolute advantage in producing TV’s because it takes less time than Country B.

3 hrs. 16 hrs.
One TV 6 hrs. 8 hrs.

• Even though Country A has the absolute advantage in producing both DVD players and TV’s, it is still beneficial for both countries to specialize and trade if they consider comparative advantage.
• Country A has the comparative advantage in producing DVD players because it only gives up ½ of a TV when it makes a DVD player compared to Country B who gives up 2 TV’s when it makes 1 DVD player.
• Country B, however, has the comparative advantage when producing TVs because it only gives up ½ of a DVD player when it makes a TV compared to 2 DVD players that Country A gives up.
• Suppose the two countries only produce the products in which they have a comparative advantage and then decide to trade for the other product.

ENRICHMENT ACTIVITY REVIEW
• YES, both countries would benefit by specializing and trading.
• Both countries would now have one of each if they traded one TV for one DVD player.
• Both would save enough time to make one more of their respective product.
