Description
Is your business considering outsourcing a function such as IT, catering, accounting, finance, HR, logistics, marketing, cleaning or waste management? Or perhaps you have an existing outsourcing arrangement which is coming to an end so you need to renegotiate or procure a new outsourcing contract?
Whilst outsourcing has many benefits you may have heard of the horror stories of outsourcing contracts going wrong in that the services you receive do not meet expectations and/or you end up paying more than you have budgeted. For these reasons you may be concerned about the decision to outsource or continue with the outsourcing.
If you want to ensure a "smart" outsourcing contract and avoid costly project problems - you should attend this seminar. There will be invaluable practical tips and best practice insights from "front line" experts in the field:
Dr Sam De Silva a Partner in Taylor Walton's Technology and Outsourcing Group will discuss some of the key legal and commercial issues in outsourcing contracts.
Heather Cowley a Partner and Head of Taylor Walton's Employment Law Group will discuss TUPE and employment issues with outsourcing.
Lisa Heneghan, a Director in Deloitte’s consulting practice and Shirley Cooper, the new President of CIPS (Chartered Institute of Purchasing & Supply) and the Procurement and Supply Chain Director of Computacenter will be guest speakers.
Attendees will also receive a complimentary copy of TW's "A Customer's Guide to an Outsourcing Contract", which is a detailed guide (over 125 pages) to the key legal and commercial issues in an outsourcing contract.
