Insourcing is a business practice in which work that would otherwise have been contracted
out is performed in house.
Insourcing often involves bringing in specialists to fill temporary needs or training
existing personnel to perform tasks that would otherwise have been outsourced. An
example is the use of in-house engineers to write technical manuals for equipment
they have designed, rather than sending the work to an outside technical writing
firm. In this example, the engineers might have to take technical writing courses
at a local college, university, or trade school before being able to complete the
task successfully. Other challenges of insourcing include the possible purchase
of additional hardware and/or software that is scalable and energy-efficient enough
to deliver an adequate return on investment (ROI).
Insourcing can be viewed as outsourcing as seen from the opposite side. For example,
a company based in Japan might open a plant in Europe for the purpose of employing
American workers to manufacture Japanese products. From the Japanese perspective
this is outsourcing, but from the European perspective it is insourcing.
