The Natural Organization Of Outsourcing And Insourcing

This book provides executives with the necessary questions to approach outsourcing and insourcing decisions. Technological evolution brought about new ways to approach productive processes. Outsourcing or Insourcing is a question of convenience in the short and long-term. By understanding the nature of outsourcing and by having the necessary questions you will be able to build the natural complementation with third parties to increase productivity and quality. But insourcing is a natural alternative for certain business problems. The adequate mix of both outsourcing and insourcing alternatives will provide the adequate answer to your business problems. This book provides the description of the nature of the outsourcing and insourcing processes. This book is a support for executives that are familiar with the unicist approach to business strategy, and delivers the necessary questions and conceptual information to define the "blending" of outsourcing / insourcing decisions. It includes the unicist ontology of Outsourcing and Insourcing Processes and the questions needed to manage such processes. The implicit recommendation is to define to "outsource" when it is convenient and to "insource" when it is necessary. But when outsourcing has been decided it is necessary to make a deep reflection to define which type of outsourcing should be done. This book will help you consider the benefits, the risks and the costs implicit in each type of outsourcing.

Natural organizations evolve in the most effective way. The unicist technology to develop natural organizations is a meta-model, with its rules, to be applied based on the characteristics of a business and the environment. Natural Organization structures both the centrifugal and the centripetal forces of an organization: centrifugal forces to expand the market, and centripetal forces to expand its growth. It is a breakthrough in management towards simplicity and effectiveness. This book is a necessity for understanding the nature of businesses. It promotes the use of meta-models, as a GPS, to monitor organizational processes and the use of pilot testing integrating the "natural" organization with the "necessary" organization. This is not a book of recipes. This is a book to develop recipes. Unicist natural organization implies finding the organizational model that best fits the requirement of the business model. Organizational models are the operational description of the implicit or explicit business model. The nature of a business defines the essential organizational model to be applied. We named this model as a meta-model which replicates the natural organization of a specific business. The essential meta-model has three components: -The natural organization -The client centered management -The personalized organization This R&D e-book includes the unicist ontology of organizations that has been researched to influence their nature.

Unicist Organization is a consultation book for "business architects" that need to make accurate diagnoses and design adaptive organizational processes. There are two possible languages in consultation books, one for "patients" and one for "doctors." This is a book for "doctors."It fosters the Ontology based and Object driven Organization in organizational design.This book is part of the Collection of the Unicist R&D books that were developed by Peter Belohlavek, synthesizing the ontological researches that began in 1976. It provides an ontology based and object driven approach to organizations, regarding them as a complex adaptive system. This book goes into the depth of human complex adaptive behavior. It covers, among other subjects: institutionalization, the unicist ontology of family businesses, business organization, the natural organization, structural diagnostics, natural models in business evolution, the client centered management model, the personalized organization, the unicist ontology of outsourcing & insourcing, business catalysts, business synergy, the unicist ontology of object driven organization and object driven management, business cybernetics, the ontology of leadership, quality assurance, continuous improvement, change management, big change management, research and innovation, principles of organizational equilibrium.

Chapter TwoHuman resource outsourcing2.1Outsourcing or insourcing in human resource supply chain factorTo choosing of outsourcing or insourcing in human resource supply chain factor of the controlling service demanders needs to concern this issues: Should human resource activities be provided in house or should all or past of those activities be outsourced? The relationship between organizational structure and the HR function is an important variable. The individual activities that comprise HR systems include not only the employee life cycle from recruiting to termination, but also planning for organizational staffing needs and improving organizational effectiveness. How organizations need to outsource HR function to not care employees knowledge and skill is a factor to influence any organizations choose to outsourcing non core employees when which have no any right employees to be promoted to do the position. For example, firms engage in HR outsourcing to reduce management access HR expertise, achieve workforce flexibility, focus managerial resources and keep up with changing workplace negotiations. Also, supporting the tend is the availability of common technology platform, which can reduce costs for organizations and risks. However, organizations are afraid of losing some control over delivery of outsourcing services and finding themselves dependent on the vendor or liable for the vendors actions where there are both benefits and challenges may be informed by the structure of the relationship between client firms and these organizations offering the outsourced activities to client firms.What variables are impacted by HR outsourcing of staffing? Which include: administrative costs for labor expense, client firm to HR relations, HR regulatory competency requirement, knowledge of cost factors, e.g. billing and pay rates, vendor markups and margins, vendor management competency requirement, client and vendor relationship, communication is between client managers and staffing vendor, employee data-available, data quality control, data security, match with job requirement, employee quality, inter-vendor competition, mining of client talent by vendor , quality content for preferred staffing vendor, standardization of business process ( intra-company), strategic focus of client firm, demands on client managers vendor competency and external economic environmental viability.

This book provides a framework for unicist technology users to implement changes in business processes. Unicist mechanics is necessary to influence complex, ambiguous or uncertain realities and therefore becomes essential for strategic management. It describes the natural consequences of human action on a particular environment. It is based on the unicist mechanics implicit in the unicist ontology of evolution. Unicist mechanics includes two different approaches to the mechanics of evolution: a) On the one hand, the mechanic resulting from the natural evolution of a given reality. It is the mechanics driven by evolution laws. b) On the other hand, the mechanic resulting from human influence on reality. It is the mechanics driven by influence principles. Understanding unicist mechanics makes the use of unicist technologies simple. It includes the taxonomy and rules of the unicist ontology that have been researched to be applied to business processes.

These books were written as consultation books to be used to solve problems. They are essentially analogous to medical books for individuals who decided to manage the concepts and fundamentals of things in order to manage the root causes of problems. This book is about robotics, perhaps the “hardest” aspect of automation processes. But it also includes its “softest” side: the human being. It describes conceptual structures using unicist technologies. These technologies are homologous to the conceptual engineering solutions developed at the University of Osaka.
