In the current essay I will review the new systems, and whether they should be purchased, developed in-house, (cover in-sourcing/self sourcing) or out-sourced. I think that New Systems should be purchased if they can not be developed in-house. It would be better if new systems will be developed and then purchased, as it is important to ensure the quality of these systems, and they have to be created by professionals in the sphere.
It is essential to note that according to the official definition, “insourcing is the opposite of outsourcing; which means insourcing and it is often defined as the delegation of operations or jobs from production within a business to an internal entity that specializes in that operation. It should be noted that insourcing is a business decision that is often made to maintain control of critical production or competencies”.
It should be noted that “selfsourcing is the internal development and support of IT systems by knowledge workers with minimal contribution from IT specialists.
It can be said that the development in-house gives more freedom and there also can be applied more creativity. I think it depends on the situation whether it would be better for the new systems to be purchased, developed in-house, (cover in-sourcing/self sourcing) or out-sourced.
All in all, all these methods of creation of new systems have advantages and disadvantages. I presume that the systems have to be purchased and true professionals have to develop them, applying the newest ideas, approaches and their creativity. Although there is always a choice whether to purchase, develop in-house, (cover in-sourcing/self sourcing) or out-source new systems.
