A Texas In-plant Roundup
Williams advised in-plants to find out all of their costs, even the ones they may not pay, like utilities or rent. These costs will certainly be examined if your shop is considered for outsourcing, he said, so have them ready.
Later in the conference, Beto, of UT Austin, described his own experiences when a fleet services provider pitched a high-level administrator on taking over his mail delivery operation (without any mail experience). Though he knew he had the data and experience to show that the in-plant could provide this service better, his challenge was not to get too passionate when making his points in this meeting.
