Productivity vs The Indirect Spend: Why you should have a dedicated IT Team

Do you remember a time when you considered hiring an IT team (outsourced or internal)? But then decided you could do it – to save on the costs.

What if we told you that there is a formula that is specific to every business? This formula would always have the same result on the question of, whether you should take on the IT management yourself or you should get a team to do it.

What if we told you that there is a formula that is specific to every business?
