Hello Team,

One of the most critical decisions made in any firm concerns make or buy. When any firm starts its life, a whole series of make-or-buy decisions need to be made and as the firm grows and as it adds or drops products and/or services from its offerings, make-or-buy decisions continue to be made.

Before we proceed to explore other elements of the make-or-buy decision, let us first distinguish the difference between in-sourcing and outsourcing in relation to make-or-buy decisions:

1.  In-sourcing: Refers to reversing a previous buy decision. An organisation chooses to bring in-house an activity, product or service previously procured from outside.

2.  Outsourcing: Reverses a previous make-decision. Thus, an activity, product or service previously done in-house will be procured from outside.

For any brand new product or service, make-or-buy decisions need to be made. Later, in view of new internal and external circumstances, these previous make-or-buy decisions are reviewed and some or all may be reversed. Clearly, there is a major role to play for Procurement in make or buy as well as in-sourcing or outsourcing.

Regards,

 

Saiyid
