Background: The rapid improvement of technological infrastructure over the past three decades have led to increased connectivity and communication possibilities.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with outsourcing of information systems (IS), and if there is a difference in IS sourcing based on the strategic value of the outsourced functions. The theoretical framework is based upon a synthesis of strategic management theory (SMT) and transaction cost economics (TCE) as they apply to vertical integration in the health care sector; therefore, IS sourcing behavior was conceptualized as a case of vertical integration. The conceptual model proposed that sourcing behavior would be determined by asset specificity, uncertainty, t

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Små- och medelstora företag (SME) är motorn inom den europeiska ekonomin och står idag för 9 av 10 företag. SME är beroende av att deras nyckelroller innehavs av kompetent personal så att företaget kan fortsätta att utvecklas. För att lyckas rekrytera personer med den behövda kompetensen krävs det att företaget använder sig av olika strategier. En interaktion mellan HR och marknadsföring kan leda till en implementering av framgångsrika strategier kring anställning av en nyckelroll till SME. Syfte: Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka hur små- och medelstora företag går tillväga kring

Abstract:
Research on outsourcing has been around for several decades, while recent evolution in the information systems discipline towards ICT service commoditization significantly changes the context of decision-making. Services that are available on-demand via the Internet allow organizations implementing functions they demand in a fraction of time. This trend represents a chance for organizations seeking to use advanced ICT services without a need of major investments. Problem is the current lack of guidelines and tools for managing ICT services and their outsourcing. Given the trends on the ICT ser

<p>Outsourcing, förflyttning av funktioner till extern part som tidigare funnits i företaget, är ett fenomen som under de två senaste årtiondena har vuxit starkt i världen.

Business Process Outsourcing är en kategori inom detta område, som innebär att företaget outsourcar hela eller delar av sin ekonomifunktion. Användandet av Business Process Outsourcing har ökat bland de svenska företagen under de senaste åren. Det finns mångtydiga förklaringar till denna framväxt, där en förklar
