Managing talent is a core HR function, and outsourcing is increasingly part of the HR solution. Outsourcing enables HR departments to focus on strategic HR issues like talent management, and to reduce the cost of providing HR services. In response to buyer needs for better tools to help them manage the outsourcing process, the HR Outsourcing Association (HROA) has established formal work programs around standards, benchmarking and research. The intent is to cut through the complexity of HR and simplify the process of outsourcing. This session will review the tools available to HROA members to enable faster, better sourcing decisions.
