摘要：

Outsourcing of IT services is being undertaken at a rapid rate within the public sector in Australia. This paper investigates the adoption of this practice by a sample of state government enterprises and departments from South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales which have rendered long-term IT outsourcing contracts. The motivation, decision-making process and extent of outsourcing are examined in further detail. In addition, the rendering process, contract and risk management are investigated to determine whether consideration has been given to the full economic costs involved in entering into longer term contracts.
