To run the business successfully there are lots of things required like investment, equipments, proper setup and last but most important is human resource. Human resource is always taken as the back bone of any business either new or old. Although human resource is always taken as the valuable asset for any company but due to modern technological inventions, new ways of doing businesses are coming every day that has affected the human recourse’s hiring to some extent.

Today the outsourcing of businesses is becoming very common and preferable by the businessmen. It is done for being cost efficient in proper way. Companies usually incur huge costs in recruiting the staff. Recruitment is a long procedure having being divide in certain steps i.e. short listing of candidates, walk in interviews, selection committee, hiring of employees and at last their training sessions. This long procedure can affect the business in any possible negative way. Time limitation in completing a huge task instantly is the big challenge for a company. The company faces a problem when there is small time limit for completing a big project. The best thing at this stage is to discover a best alternative for performing the required task timely rather than striking head in useless and unreliable procedures. To ask the pet employees to work as part timers can be a solution for the company. And if they agree, there could not be any other best alternative than this. On the contrary; company would have to go for another way if workers disagree.

Now a day the most commonly used way for getting the extra work done is giving the responsibilities to the third party. That third party could be an online company or any real one. That third party is usually known as a managed services provider. Managed services provider works as a third party for other companies, they usually works with lots of companies at a single time to maintain their business as well as to get profit. Managed services provider mainly works on monthly packages and they get the monthly charges from the companies, to which they used to provide their services. More precisely we can say that they generate their income and profit from getting projects from other companies by providing their services in return.

The basic work of managed service providers includes the maintenance of the old data, keeping the backups and the IT related services like security protections, web designing etc. There are a lot of work related to IT and they work for different companies at a time.

Companies realized after analysis of expenses incurred by company’s IT department and the outer service that the costs are minimized in hiring the services from outside. Hiring them as the IT department save the company from unnecessary wastage of time and cost

Some positive points of managed services provider make it preferable over the recruitment of new employees. The companies facing the hurdles of money and space shortage problems usually do not want to make separate IT departments and can avail the virtual IT services from the managed services provider. Another advantage is of minimization of cost and saving of enough time to complete the work instead of hiring and training of the work force. Service provider run a whole broader system that can provide the thorough information and guidance related to each and every issue, but the one or two employees cannot manage that alone. A psychological need of managed service provider can provide better results for you i.e. they have to provide best services in order to retain their customers.

Though this is really a good way to reduce your cost and work burden but still there are companies who are not following this strategy because they are not that comfortable or flexible with this. Looking into the benefits this seems to be very successful step for future companies.
