1.2 INTRODUCTION TO INDUSTRY
Outsourcing became well known largely because of a rapid growth in the
number of high-tech companies in the early 1990’s that were often not large enough to
be able to easily maintain large customer service departments of their own. In some
cases these companies hired technical writers to simplify the usage instructions of
their products, index the key points of their information and contracted with
temporary employment agencies to find, train and hire generally low- skilled workers
to answer their telephone technical support and customer service calls.
These agents generally worked in call centers where the information needed to
assist the calling customer was indexed in a computer system. The Wikipedia website
defines outsourcing as “the management and/or day to day execution of an entire
business function by a third party services provider.”

RESEARCH PROCESS
This is treated as niche sector in outsourcing. The research processes are
usually outsourced in full or in parts. Let it be the research in nanotechnology or
research in genetics, the process is viable for outsourcing. Generally larger research
projects are cut into various sub projects or tasks. The outsourcing is then carried out
based on the viability and competitiveness of the outsourcing destinations. Thus
exploiting the competitiveness viable at various parts of the world into single large
projects. The research process outsourcing (RPO) is also known as knowledge process
outsourcing (KPO) as it calls for the application of specialized knowledge of a high
level. The KPO typically involves a component of Analysis Proves Outsourcing and
Research Process Outsourcing, General Electric (GE) is one of the pioneers in RPO.
I T OPERATIONS
This is one of the newcomers in the outsourcing arena. The task basically
involves the management of I T assets of corporation from a remote location. For
example the management of a computer network of a large corporation includes
outage monitoring, alarms monitoring remote monitoring of data centers etc. The
nature of these operation calls for a real-time support when the need arises. That
means such tasks are not easily outsourced to the places in far time zones. Instead it’s
outsourced to comparable time zone locations, which are competitive. This need for
the geographical proximity earned it a specific name near sourcing.
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
This is probably the most talked about subject in the outsourcing field.
Probably because of the very nature of the software, outsourcing in software
development has much fast evolved as compared to other area of outsourcing.
ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES
Many large institutions have outsourced the management of their
environmental service facilities, such as laundries and waste management plants, to
service providers. Thus, while appearing to save operating cost; the institution gives
up control of these vital functions to the outsourcing company.

1.3 PROJECT PROFILE
16
An accurate assessment of employee’s satisfaction ordinarily requires a more
formal procedure. Satisfaction surveys are often conducted to get systematic
information from employees. Satisfaction survey can provide information regarding
how employees feel about their jobs and the organization. However surveys are not
completely neutral information-gathering devices. Employees expectation may be
raised simply because employees are asked to participate in the survey process.
Failure to follow up on the survey with appropriate managerial action may result in
decreased employee satisfaction than what existed before.
Job satisfaction survey helps to find out the level of employee satisfaction and
to take collective actions if needed to improve employee satisfaction and
performance.

2.1 NEED FOR THE STUDY
The resource capable of enlargement mainly is human resource. Other
resources can be utilized or less utilized, but they can never have output greater than
the sum of outputs. Human resources available can grow and develop. Human
resource can be utilized at its maximum only when they are satisfied with their job.
When an employee joins the company, various factors in and around the
company affects the mind setting of the employee either in positive or negative way.
Due to change in mind setting the employee may either change himself/herself to be
active or inactive.
