The recession is truly biting hard as Whitehall begins to seriously consider outsourcing. The offshore model used by many private British companies in the past year is influencing opinions in the public sector.
Jobs in IT are being lost at a considerable level in the UK with many entry jobs now being outsourced to Indian companies. This has been subject of intense debate, however with the Digital Britain report out recently, it signifies that yet again the British economy is to undergo a significant transformation as roles in the service sector evolve. Not quite a revolution in the service supplier markets, but British people will need to look out for the next industry to make significant progress that requires the relevant skills at the affordable cost-base.
Unfortunately, with cost-cutting initiatives - many businesses and public organisations can justify project management in-sourced, however the lower-levels of operations are making more economic sense to offshore.
