Dimension Data bags SAB contract
Dimension Data will provide support for the sales and distribution back office of SAB as well as its seven manufacturing sites. They will also support 800 desktops located across the Gauteng region.
This move by SAB to outsource their IT operational functions is part of a worldwide trend to outsource areas of business that are non-core features. This frees up the company to focus on what they are good at.
Whilst outsourcing has tremendous advantages it can become an economic drain on certain national industries if the business is outsourced to cheaper countries like India or China.
Outsourcing is a good way for companies to optimise their daily functioning especially if it can be kept within our borders.
