Offshoring is a factor in all our fields of activity. It is important to understand why operations could be offshored or outsourced, to identify the most suitable activities, and then to clearly grasp the challenges associated with this management approach. This study presents the factors influencing offshoring decisions, possible problems, and the appropriate management approaches for managing offshored operations. The research also shows that offshoring can affect the organization\u2019s innovative capability. It is essential to carefully choose the operations to be moved outside the organization\u2019s traditional boundaries, so as not to harm the firm\u2019s long-term competitiveness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"NormalLight\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-1 hundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-overflow:visible;--awb-margin-top:10px;--awb-margin-bottom:10px;--awb-background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0);--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-0 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last fusion-column-no-min-height\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-margin-bottom:0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\"><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;width:100%;\"><div class=\"fusion-separator-border sep-single\" style=\"--awb-height:20px;--awb-amount:20px;border-color:#e0dede;border-top-width:1px;\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div>\n<p>Aubert, Benoit, Croteau, Anne-Marie, Leblanc, Charles, Le Roux, Ronan. <a href=\"http:\/\/cpp.hec.ca\/cms\/assets\/documents\/recherches_publiees\/CE2012_03.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Externalisation des services informatiques<\/a>.
