Presented by:

Your outsourcing contract is terminated. A software development contract is over budget and behind schedule. The vendor fires the client. These are common real-world events in business today -- and are likely to become even more common in the future. The number of sourcing relationships is growing every year as organizations redefine their core competencies and invent new paradigms for doing business. Effectively managing the performance of services contracts is crucial to the success of commercial organizations and government agencies worldwide.
