Challenge
Build vs Buy
Successful businesses innovate, that is they continue to grow by creating new products and services. However, growth is change and change involves risk. Therefore, growth must be managed.
The first question facing management in the process of developing a new product or service is do they do this in-house, that is "Build" or should they outsource, i.e. "Buy".
Traditionally, the preferred approach to such an investment has been to build custom applications in-house over concerns that a third-party solution won't meet their specialized needs or connect with existing systems.
However, Gallup reports that one in six IT projects have an average cost overrun of 200% and a schedule overrun of almost 70%. This is due to the cost of the initial build, support, bug fixes, upgrades, and keeping up with market trends.
