About us

LODESTAR Advisory Services has been established as the next generation of outsourcing advisors. We bring the latest tools, methodologies, knowledge and experience to your outsourcing and insourcing projects.

Our advisors bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in both Information Technology outsourcing (ITO) and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) having worked on some of the largest and most complex transactions, both at a local and global level.

 

Successful outsourcing projects are the result of carefully balancing price, service levels and risk in a manner that best suits your organisation and corporate culture.

Our methodology allows you to truly understand your current environment and allows you to make informed choices at all stages of the project.

These include developing a sourcing strategy that takes into account:
whether to sole source to use a multi service provider (selective) sourcing approach
which service providers are best suited to your needs
how to balance on-shore and off shore resourcing
how to effectively negotiate a contract
the transition of people, assets and work to the service provider and then, crucially,
how to manage the ongoing contract and relationship.

In keeping with best practice, our tools and methodologies are continually updated taking into account the changing landscape of the outsourcing industry. Each company is unique and our templates and approaches are tailored to meet your specific requirements. We have found this delivers a comprehensive and integrated package that fully caters for all requirements of the sourcing lifecycle.
