India
  • This is the largest part of Hire Rights

  • Subcontract to company in India which has
    approximately 150 full-time employees working for
    Hire Right
  • Majority of Hire Rights entry-level work-load is
    done in India
  • India works to verify employment education
    through the internet and will handle other
    screening processes for Hire Right

20

    verifications (due to Indian accents which might

    aspects of software done in the U.S.
  • All administration takes place in U.S.

    production

21
Outsourcing by Competitors
  • Less than 10 of the competitors outsource
  • Reasons for not outsourcing
  • Lack of control
  • Cultural issues
  • Fear of what customers will think
  • Fear of the unknown
  • Takes a great deal of work to outsource
  • Companies have experienced problems with
    outsourcing sometimes because they do not take
    careful, measured approach
  • Hire Right, Inc. made a partnership with their
    subcontractor so all are committed to success

22
Benefits of Outsourcing
  • Substantial financial benefits and cost savings
  • Has brought down the cost of doing business
    significantly
  • High quality of output
  • Outsourcing has allowed Hire Right, Inc. to
    increase their customer base in other countries.
  • Started with 42 countries but now providing
    services in over 200 nations.

23
Benefits of Outsourcing
  • Able to get college graduates who will work for
    less
  • Cannot find this in U.S. very easily most
    graduates do not work for that little of money or
    the turnover is very high
  • More aligns with what the customer is willing to
    pay and what Hire Right is willing to spend
  • Culture in India is to follow directions
    thoroughly
  • To ensure this, Hire Right created processes

24
Issues with Outsourcing in India
  • Original CEO of the subcontractor is Indian but
    has worked in the U.S. before therefore he
    understands the issues faced by the U.S. firms
    and is easy to deal with.
  • Production issues led to renegotiation of the
    work contract.
  • Workers wanted to reduce the production quota
  • New contract allows for payment per piece of
    output
  • This secures the profitability of Hire Right,
    Inc.
  • Factored in incentives and penalties

25
Issues with Outsourcing in India
  • Lower production output
  • Seems to not do as well with problem solving or
    thinking for themselves
  • High turnover, especially for woman who are
    unmarried and still live at home
  • Work hours contribute to this they work US
    business hours

26
Impact of U.S. Economy
  • Believes that there is a positive impact
  • Most US multinationals are outsourcing now
  • Lowers costs to businesses are passed on to
    consumers
  • More purchasing power
  • Unemployment is at an all-time low
  • Many positions available in growing retail sector
    for those displaced by outsourcing
  • Most outsourcing affects entry-level workers
