Question
Which of the following would be the LEAST likely indication that complete or selected outsourcing of IS functions should be considered?

A. The applications development backlog is greater than three years.
B. It takes one year to develop and implement a high-priority system.
C. More than 60 percent of programming costs are spent on system maintenance.
D. Duplicate information systems functions exist at two sites.
Answers
Answer: B

The development and implementation of a high-priority system typically would take from one year to 18 months. Having it take one year would not be an indicator that outsourcing would improve the development time. Choices A, C and D would all be indicators that outsourcing selected IS functions may be warranted.   Your Comment
