• Marco company has a highly qualified team of professionals. The majority of the personnel has more than 10 years’ experience.
• In our work we focus on the eventual result. The passport to our success can only be effective and efficient operations.
• Involvement of the outsourcer, as a rule, gives an impetus to the positive development of the IT-structure of the company: there is a clear determination of functions both of the whole service and individual experts. The nature of changes is determined by the specifics of the company activities. Some functions are transferred to the outsourcer. For the IT-service such functions come out on top as: provision of major business applications the company, control of the outsourcer and coordination of works.
• Transition to outsourcing is a difficult step, because many companies traditionally run their business in the form of the natural economy when everything belongs to them: its own accountant, the bodyguard, the driver, the system administrator.
How expensive is the outsourcing?
It is considered that the services of the third party companies are more expensive than its own IT-service. Is it so?
If we simply compare the numbers of the specialist’s wages and the price of the outsourcing contact, it would seem that it is really so. For example, the wages of the system administrator is 2,000,000 roubles, and the monthly price of the outsourcing contract is 3,000,000 roubles.
However, when calculating the costs of its own IT-service other factors should be taken into account. Let’s consider a more detailed comparison on the example of the cost estimation for maintaining a full-time employee of the company:
|
Item |
Month |
Note |
|
Wages |
2,000,000 roubles |
|
|
Wage taxes |
700, 000 roubles |
At least 35% of the fund |
|
Social package |
200, 000 roubles |
Medical insurance, material assistance, catering, corporate measures, sports and etc. |
|
Costs of professional studies |
100, 000 roubles |
Extension courses, paid seminars, course books and technical literature, subscription for magazines. |
|
Costs of the accounting and personnel departments on maintenance of the employee |
60, 000 roubles |
It depends on the number of employees in the organization |
|
Vacation leaves |
180,000 roubles |
28 days per year |
|
Sick leaves |
115,000 roubles |
On average 15 working days per year |
|
Costs on the organization of the working place, the computer, furniture, leasing of premises |
200, 000 roubles |
Amortization of the computer, the furniture, leasing of premises |
|
Costs on the support of the working place |
50, 000 roubles |
Consumables, stationery, telephone service |
|
TOTAL: |
3,605,000 roubles |
|
The cost estimation shows that with the wages of the specialist in the amount of 2,000,000 roubles, the amount of 3,605,000 roubles is spent on him per month. And if we add those energy and time resources that the company management spends on the organization of its IT-activities to the detriment of the work according to the basic profile, then we can talk about duplication of the company's expenses, i.e. the cost value up to 6,000,000 roubles. Outsourcing seems to be more advantageous.
