The ongoing Accenture High Performance Business research initiative has revealed that top companies invest their time, talent and capital to develop those competencies that will set them apart from their competitors. For them, outsourcing activities that are not core to their mission is an appealing option.
IT infrastructure management is typically not considered a distinctive or differentiating capability. Accenture research has repeatedly shown, however, that it is a critical enabler of business success. High-performance businesses understand that a cost-efficient, highly flexible and scalable infrastructure model allows them to respond to market changes, improve operational efficiencies, elevate performance and jump-start new growth.
It’s easy to understand why there has been a surge in IT infrastructure outsourcing. Today's highly competitive business environment, coupled with a volatile economic climate, demands that organizations do more with less. In addition to reducing costs, IT infrastructure outsourcing provides a management model whereby organizations can move away from complex and inefficient IT environments and, instead, build IT capabilities that are more scalable, agile, reliable and responsive to business needs.
Accenture is uniquely positioned to help organizations maximize the business value of their IT investments and lay a foundation for high performance with infrastructure outsourcing.
