Answer: The impact of domestic IT outsourcing has been very disruptive to some regional areas of the United States.

Explanation: Outsourcing is an agreement in which one company hires another company to be responsible for an existing activity that is done internally and sometimes involves transferring employees and assets from one firm to another.

It involves the contracting of a business process to an external firm (e. g. payroll processing) operational and other functions such as manufacturing, facility management, call center/call centre support.

Outsourcing can offer greater budget flexibility and control by allowing organizations to pay for the services and business functions they need, when they need them. It also reduces the need to hire and train specialized staff, makes available specialized expertise, and can reduce capital, operating expenses and risk.
