Explanation:
Outsourcing
Outsourcing (em inglês, "Out" significa "fora" e "source" ou "sourcing" significa fonte) designa a ação que existe por parte de uma organização em obter mão-de-obra de fora da empresa, ou seja, mão-de-obra terceirizada. Está fortemente ligado a idéia de sub-contratação de serviços.
Em outras palavras, "Outsourcing" é a transferência das atividades conhecidas como atividades meio, e nunca as atividades fins (produto final), para uma empresa terceirizada.
