#038: To Outsource or Not Outsource -- That Is the Question

To outsource or not to outsource -- that is the question:
Whether 'tis more efficient to tap
The skills and talents of those who bill by the hour,
Or to bring resources inside as full-time staff,
And, by doing so, manage them.
To contract, to outsource -- No more -- and by outsource to say we get
Our insights and our implementation work
Managed by others -- 'tis a scenario
Devoutly to be wished. To contract, to outsource --
To outsource, perchance to analyze. Aye, there's the rub.

Besides ignoring iambic pentameter in the process of butchering a Shakespearean reference, this episode, perchance, also makes reference to the following:
